Asbtract Introduction This study aimed to determine whether cytokine receptor-like factor 2 (CRLF2) antigen expression evaluated using multiparametric flow cytometry (MFC) could predict the genotype of CRLF2 and Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) status for application in the diagnosis of pediatric B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL). Methods A total of 321 BCP-ALL bone marrow samples were collected, 291 at diagnosis and 13 at first relapse, while 17 samples were excluded due to low cellular viability. The CRLF2 antigen expression was evaluated using flow cytometry (percentage of positivity and median fluorescence intensity [MFI]). The CRLF2 transcript levels were assessed via quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction using SYBR Green. The CRLF2 rearrangements (CRLF2-r) were identified using the CRLF2 break-apart probe via fluorescence in situ hybridization. Sanger sequencing was performed to identify the JAK2 exon 16 mutations. Results We observed that 60 of the 291 cases (20.6%) presented CRLF2 antigen positivity, whereas the CRLF2 transcript overexpression was found in 19 of 113 cases (16.8%). The JAK2 mutation was found in four out of 116 cases (3.4%), all of which had CRLF2 ≥10% of positive cells and intermediate or high MFI (p < 0.0001). In addition, in the 13 cases with the CRLF2-r, a positive correlation was found with the CRLF2 antigen intermediate (61.5%) MFI (p= 0.017). Finally, the CRLF2-positive antigen was identified in the BCP-ALL subclones. Conclusion The identification of the CRLF2 antigen using the MFC, based on the percentage of positivity and MFI values, is a useful tool for predicting JAK2 mutations and CRLF2-r. receptorlike receptor like CRLF (CRLF2 MFC (MFC JAK (JAK2 Bcell B cell BCPALL.

Resumen La parrhesía constituye una práctica de "decir veraz" que Michel Foucault investiga en sus últimos seminarios del Colegio de Francia, como una de las maneras originales de constitución de uno mismo en la cultura grecolatina antigua. En este trabajo, dicha noción de parrhesía es desplegada en toda su contemporaneidad política y se afirma que constituye un complemento fundamental para la tesis agonísitica de la democracia, en especial la defendida por Chantal Mouffe. El "decir veraz" del parrhesiasta, al interpelar de manera radical el statu quo de la identidad colectiva constituida en el proceso de politización propio de la democracia radical, subvierte y transforma dicha identidad en un objeto permanente de disputa. Se recupera así el sentido del polemos propio de la práctica democrática.

Abstract The parrhesia is a practice of "true-telling" that Michel Foucault researches in his last courseof the College of France, as one of the most singulars ways of becoming oneself in the ancient Greco Latin culture. In this paper, such notion of parrhesia is developed in its whole political contemporaneity, and it is assumed as a key component for the agonistic thesis of democracy, especially in Chantal Mouffe's work. The "true-telling" of parrhesiast, while contesting in a radical way the status quo of the collective identity formed in the own process of politization of radical democracy, it subverts and transform this given identity in an object of constant dispute. The polemos sense characteristic of democracy is in that way recovered.

Abstract: In a previous work (Camargo & Ried, 2016), we have argued that pharmacological practice has given rise to a new type of biopower (“molecular biopower”), with specific technologies and rationalities, distinguishing it from the biopower that Michel Foucault recognised in his later work. However, we also argued that another effect has been the creation of new forms of resistance. In this article, we present two specific models of resistance created by the apparatus of pharmacological power: one, inspired by pro-anorexia movements, which operates by resignifying the pathological categorization of anorexia using the drug Xenical; another, based on the experience outlined by Beatriz Preciado in her 2008 book Testo Junkie, which operates by overcoming legal, medical and moral limits to create a ground-breaking new identity by consuming prohibited doses of gel testosterone.

Resumen: En Towards a genealogy of pharmaceutical practice (Camargo y Ried, 2016), sostuvimos que la práctica farmacológica daba lugar a un nuevo tipo de biopoder (“biopoder molecular”), con tecnologías y racionalidades propias, que lo distinguían del biopoder que había reconocido Michel Foucault en su trabajo tardío. Pero también sostuvimos que su contracara era la generación de nuevas formas de resistencia. En este artículo presentaremos dos modelos específicos de resistencias producidos por el dispositivo del poder farmacológico: uno, que tiene como caso básico el de los movimientos proanorexia, que operan resignificando la categoría misma de la patología “anoréxica” a base del fármaco Xenical; otro, que tiene referencia en la experiencia relatada por Beatriz Preciado en su libro Testo yonqui (2008) y que actúa superando los límites legales, médicos y morales, para arrojarse a la producción de una nueva identidad jamás antes trazada al consumir dosis no permitidas de testosterona en gel.

En ésta, se aborda principalmente la historia académica de Nikolas Rose, desde sus primeras investigaciones como biólogo, hasta la más reciente y relativa a la neurociencia, pasando igualmente por su importante trabajo sobre la gubernamentalidad en las décadas de los setenta y ochenta.

Resumo Os méis das abelhas sem ferrão são produtos únicos da biodiversidade brasileira, presentes e valorizados pela cultura popular desde os povos originais das Américas. Por ser mais ácido e apresentar maior teor de umidade, seu sabor é peculiar e sua viscosidade é menor quando comparada ao mel proveniente da espécie exótica Apis mellifera. Devido a essas diferenças, esse produto necessita do estabelecimento de parâmetros físico-químicos específicos que sejam referência tanto para controle de qualidade como para sua comercialização. Com base em pesquisas realizadas pela Embrapa, pelo Instituto de Tecnologia de Alimentos de Campinas e pelo levantamento bibliográfico de diversos estudos científicos realizados por outros institutos de ensino e pesquisa, esta comunicação tem como objetivo esclarecer as peculiaridades deste produto e apresentar uma proposta de Regulamento Técnico de Identidade e Padrão para o Mel das Abelhas Sem Ferrão, visando sua comercialização no Estado de São Paulo, contribuindo assim para a disponibilidade de um produto seguro e de qualidade para o consumidor final.

Summary Stingless bee honeys are unique products from the Brazilian biodiversity, present and appreciated by popular culture since the original peoples of the Americas. The greater acidity and moisture content of this honey make its flavour unusual and its viscosity lower when compared with the honey from the exotic species Apis mellifera. Due to these differences, this product requires the establishment of specific physical and chemical parameters to serve as a reference for both quality control and marketing purposes. Based on research carried out by Embrapa and the Institute of Food Technology in Campinas, Brazil, and also on a literature review of several scientific studies carried out by other research and educational institutes, this communication aims to clarify the peculiarities of this product and present a proposal for a Technical Regulation for stingless bee honeys aimed at its marketing in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, thus contributing to the availability of a safe product of good quality for the final consumer.

Modern constitutionalism has established itself on a strong assumption: the control of arbitrariness to safeguard freedom. This is an assumption built on a continuum starting from the opposition between the state of nature and political society formulated, amongst others, by Suárez and Locke, going through the question of the legitimacy of the restrictions of individual freedoms developed by Rousseau, and ending in the conjunction of constitutionalism and democracy by Pettit. In Pettit's essay, this evolution is traced by highlighting the fundamental aporia that seems to exist in the heart of modern constitutionalism, thas is: the displacement but not the extinction of the sovereign's arbitrariness. But if the displacement of arbitrariness is the only thing to which we can aspire within constitutionalism, then it is the conditions of the possibilities of non-arbitrariness what urgently needs to be rethought.

El constitucionalismo moderno se ha asentado sobre una pretensión fuerte: el control del arbitrio para el resguardo de la libertad. Se trata de una pretensión construida en un continuo que va desde la oposición entre estado de naturaleza y sociedad política formulado, entre otros, por Suárez y Locke, pasando por la pregunta de la legitimidad de las restricciones de las libertades individuales asentada por Rousseau, y terminando en la conjunción entre constitucionalismo y democracia ensayada por Pettit. En este ensayo se recrea dicho trazado, resaltando la aporía fundamental que parece residir en el corazón del constitucionalismo moderno, a saber: el desplazamiento pero nunca extinción del arbitrio del soberano. Pero si es sólo al retraso del arbitrio a lo que podemos aspirar en el constitucionalismo, entonces son las condiciones de posibilidades del no-arbitrio las que se hacen urgente de repensar.

Resumo: Este artigo avalia os efeitos do programa territorial PROINF nas relações sociais de agricultores familiares e também entre os membros do Conselho Municipal de Desenvolvimento Rural Sustentável (CMDRS). Os resultados mostram que os investimentos ocorridos em benefício direto dos agricultores resultaram em maior desenvolvimento local do que aqueles voltados às esferas intermediárias de mediação da política territorial.

Abstract: This paper assesses the influence of the territorial program PROINF in social relations of both family farmers and members of the Municipal Council for Sustainable Rural Development (CMDRS). The results reveal that the investments made for the direct benefit of family farmers have generated better effects on rural development than the ones aimed at intermediate levels of mediation of the territorial policy.

Following the analaysis to which Walter Benjamin invites us in his text “For a critique of Violence”, this article presents a set of notes on an always ticklish and difficult question to explore, as is that of violence, even more on a time when the original inscription of violence seems to be hidden across its resounding criminalized exhibition in the media, which shows it in an immeasurable distance to justice and law. Where there is law, it is said to us, violence ceases to exist. And it makes, therefore, very anti-intuitive to think about it (violence), in an incestuous relation with law, less still to conceive it, in current times, in a political sense and not merely as a criminal issue, on the margins of the law, as I will try to explore here. For this, the formulated readings of Benjamin’s text by Carl Schmitt, Giorgio Agamben and Slavoj Žižek will allow me to restate a question today excluded, as is: in what specific sense can violence be considered to be a political issue? The answer will suggest the affirmation of a positive biopolitics that goes beyond Foucault.

Siguiendo la reflexión a la que nos invita Walter Benjamin en su texto “Para una Crítica de la Violencia”, este artículo presenta un conjunto de notas sobre una cuestión siempre difícil y compleja de explorar como la violencia. Más aún, en una época en que su inscripción original parece invisibilizada a través de su apabullante exposición criminalizada en la media, que la opone en una distancia inconmensurable a la justicia y el derecho. Donde hay derecho -se nos dice- deja ya de haber violencia. Y hace, por tanto, contra intuitivo pensarla (a la violencia), en una relación incestuosa con el derecho, menos aún concebirla, en los tiempos que corren, en algún sentido político y no meramente delincuencial, al margen del derecho, como intentaré explorar acá. Para ello, las lecturas formuladas del texto de Benjamin por Carl Schmitt, Giorgio Agamben y Slavoj Žižek me permitirán volver a replantear una pregunta hoy excluida, a saber ¿en qué sentido la violencia puede ser considerada política? La respuesta sugerirá la aserción de una biopolítica afirmativa que se desplaza más allá de Foucault.

Na sequência da reflexão que nos convida Walter Benjamin em seu texto Para uma crítica da violência, este artigo apresenta um conjunto de notas sobre uma questão sempre difícil e complexa para explorar como é a violência. Além disso, numa epoca em que sua inscrição original parece invisível através de sua esmagadora exposição criminalizada na midia, que opõe-a a uma distância incomensurável da justiça e o direito. Onde existe o direito, nos é dito, deixa de existir a violência. E, portanto, é contraditório pensar (à violência), numa relação incestuosa com o direito, muito menos conceber-a, nestes tempos, em algum sentido político e não meramente criminal, fora da lei, como vou tentar explorar aqui. Para fazer isso, as leituras do texto de Benjamin formuladas por Carl Schmitt, Slavoj Zizek e Giorgio Agamben permitiram-me voltar a repensar uma questão hoje excluída, ou seja, em que sentido a violência pode ser considerada política? A resposta irá sugerir a afirmação de uma biopolítica afirmativa que se move para além Foucault.

Neste artigo investigou-se a importância da variação da camada de mistura oceânica (CMO) na temperatura da superfície do mar (TSM), sob a influencia de ciclones extratropicais atmosféricos. Um modelo simplificado de CMO oriundo do modelo HYCOM (Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model), baseado no modelo de Kraus e Turner, foi inserido como uma sub-rotina do modelo BRAMS (Brazilian Regional Atmospheric Modelling System), para atualizar a TSM a cada passo de tempo no modelo atmosférico. A CMO-BRAMS caracterizou-se por estreitar durante as trajetórias das baixas pressões, embora não tenha indicado um significativo aprofundamento seguindo o anticiclone da retaguarda do sistema frontal. A TSM calculada pela CMO do BRAMS apresentou grande variação (1°C-5°C) nos instantes iniciais. Entretanto, uma vez ajustada houve pouca variação da TSM no decorrer do tempo (1,0°C-2,5°C), com o aprofundamento (estreitamento) da CMO associada à diminuição (aumento) à temperatura.

The importance of the oceanic mixed layer (OML) variation on the sea surface temperature (SST), under the influence of atmospheric extratropical cyclones was investigated in this paper. An OML simplified model derived from HYCOM (Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model) model, based on Kraus and Turner model, was inserted as a subroutine on the BRAMS (Brazilian Regional Atmospheric Modelling System), to update the TSM every time step in the atmospheric model. The OML-BRAMS was characterized by narrowing during the trajectories of low pressure, but has not indicated a significant deepening following the anticyclone rear frontal system. The SST calculated by the BRAMS OML showed large variations (1.0°C-5.0°C) at the initial times. However, as soon as SST has been adjusted, few variation over time occurs (1.0°C-2.5°C), with the deepening (narrowing) of OML associated with decreasing (creasing) temperature.

The aim of this study was to identify common factors relating to the academic success of medical students who were distinguished with honors at the Buenos Aires University. In 2011, 142 graduates were surveyed; the questionnaire included 59 questions on their sociodemographic environment, living conditions and social integration, motivation to study, learning capacity and health quality during their career. Compared to other students, these distinguished students more often lived in the city, far from their families; had been educated at private or universitary high schools, their economic needs were financed by their parents, who were on the whole professionals. Most of them were single and childless. The possibility of future employment oportunities (work) did not influence their choice of a medical career, academic success was important to them and they believed that success depended largely on personal effort; they knew how to handle anxiety, were sociable but independent and preferred solid experience to abstract conceptuality in order to obtain information. Our conclusion, within the current system of candidate selection, these results serve to calculate the covert self-selection mechanisms during the career, or in a more restrictive regime, to select those likely to reach academic success due to their privileged ambience. The analysis of demographic factors indicates some degree of inequality for socially disadvantaged students. Perhaps, a selection system based only on intellectual abilities would help identify and support the best candidates regardless of their social context.

El objetivo fue identificar los factores asociados al éxito académico de los estudiantes de medicina distinguidos con diploma de honor por la Universidad de Buenos Aires. En 2011 se aplicó un cuestionario a 142 graduados con esta distinción en el 2006 que incluyó 59 preguntas sobre aspectos sociodemográficos, condiciones de vida e integración social, motivación para el estudio, capacidad de aprendizaje y estado de salud durante la carrera. En comparación con los demás alumnos, los exitosos habitaban más frecuentemente en la ciudad, provenían de escuelas medias privadas o universitarias, tenían menor necesidad de trabajar para financiarse, casi todos eran solteros y sin hijos, una proporción mayor vivía lejos de su familia, tenían más progenitores profesionales y eran financiados por ellos; nunca consideraron la salida laboral para elegir la carrera, para ellos era importante alcanzar el éxito y éste dependía principalmente del esfuerzo propio; solían manejar la ansiedad, eran sociables aunque independientes y preferían la experiencia concreta a la conceptualización abstracta para adquirir información. Con el actual sistema de ingreso, estos resultados sirven para cuantificar los mecanismos latentes de autoselección durante la carrera o en un régimen restrictivo, para seleccionar los candidatos a alcanzar el éxito académico. El análisis de los factores demográficos indica algún grado de inequidad para los estudiantes menos favorecidos socialmente. Quizás, un sistema de ingreso basado solo en las capacidades intelectuales, ayudaría a individualizar y apoyar a los mejores candidatos, independientemente de su contexto social.

Background: In patients with aortic stenosis and small aortic annulus, the surgical approach may lead to implantation of an aortic prosthesis without the necessary hemodynamic profile, conditioning the development of patient-prosthesis mismatch. In these cases, aortic root enlargement becomes a necessary procedure. Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe the incidence of small aortic annulus and the outcomes of aortic root en-largement. Methods: A total of 305 adults undergoing aortic valve replacement were prospectively studied between 2011 and 2013. Aortic root enlargement was performed in cases of small aortic annulus (< 21 mm) using the Nicks technique. Results: Aortic root enlargement was required in 7.5% of cases. All these patients were women (p < 0.001) with mean age of 71.1 years. Height (p < 0.001) and body mass index (p < 0.001) were lower in the group with aortic root enlargement, and the procedure lasted 10 to 11 minutes more. Mortality associated with aortic root enlargement was 4.3% (1/23) versus 3.5% in patients not undergoing this procedure (RR 1.23, 95% CI 0.16-9.16; p = 0.584). Conclusions: One out of every 14 aortic valve replacements required aortic root enlargement. Female gender and small body surface area were associated with the need of enlargement. The Nicks technique can be performed after a short learning curve, without an excessive increase in risk or operative time.

Introducción: En pacientes con estenosis aórtica cuya anatomía se caracteriza por un anillo valvular aórtico pequeño, el abordaje quirúrgico puede conducir al implante de una válvula que no cumpla con el perfil hemodinámico adecuado; en estos casos hay situaciones en las que el agrandamiento quirúrgico del anillo aórtico se transforma en un procedimiento necesario. Objetivos: Describir la incidencia de anillos aórticos pequeños en reemplazos valvulares aórticos y los resultados del agrandamiento del anillo. Material y métodos: Entre 2011 y 2013 se estudiaron prospectivamente 305 adultos sometidos a reemplazo aórtico. En los casos con anillo aórtico pequeño (< 21 mm) se realizó agrandamiento anular con la técnica de Nicks. Resultados: El 7,5% requirió agrandamiento anular. Todos estos pacientes fueron mujeres (p < 0,001), con edad promedio de 71,1 años. Tanto la altura (p < 0,001) como la superficie corporal (p < 0,001) fueron menores en el grupo con agrandamiento. Se requirieron 10 a 11 minutos más de cirugía para realizar el agrandamiento. La mortalidad asociada con el agrandamiento fue del 4,3% versus el 3,5% sin agrandamiento (RR 1,23, IC 95% 0,16-9,16; p = 0,584). Conclusiones: Uno de cada 14 reemplazos aórticos requirió agrandamiento. Las variables asociadas con necesidad de agrandamiento fueron sexo femenino y superficie corporal pequeña. Con un corto aprendizaje, la técnica de Nicks puede realizarse sin incrementar excesivamente el riesgo ni el tiempo operatorio.

Complexos do tipo [RuCl2(PPh3)2(amina)x], com NH2Ph (1; x = 2), NH2Bz (2; x = 2) and NHBuPh (3; x = 1) na presença de etildiazoacetato (EDA), foram aplicados em reações de polimerização via metátese por abertura de anel (ROMP) de norborneno (NBE), norbornadieno (NBD) e diciclopentadieno (DCPD). Rendimentos quantitativos de poliNBE foram obtidos a 50 °C por 30 min usando 1 e por 5 min usando 2. Isso ocorreu a 25 °C por 5 min quando foi usado 3. Os valores do índice de polidispersidade (PDI) variaram de 3,5 a 1,6 (Mw = 104-105 g mol-1). O complexo 3 foi ativo para ROMP de NBD e DCPD, bem como para copolimerização de NBE com NBD ou com DCPD. O maior caráter σ-doador de NH2Bz em 2, em relação a NH2Ph em 1, favoreceu a reatividade do complexo 2 que é hexacoordenado como 1. O ângulo de cone de NHBuPh definiu a pentacoordenação em 3 e a sua melhor reatividade para ROMP, apesar do baixo caráter σ-doador como o de NH2Ph.

[RuCl2(PPh3)2(amine)x]-type complexes, with NH2Ph (1; x = 2), NH2Bz (2; x = 2) and NHBuPh (3; x = 1) in the presence of ethyldiazoacetate (EDA), were investigated for ring opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of norbornene (NBE), norbornadiene (NBD) and dicyclopentadiene (DCPD). Quantitative yields of polyNBE were obtained at 50 °C for 30 min with 1 and for 5 min with 2, whereas this occurred at 25 °C for 5 min with 3. Polydispersity index (PDI) values ranged from 3.5 to 1.6 (Mw = 104-105 g mol-1). Complex 3 was active for ROMP of NBD and DCPD, as well as for copolymerizations of NBE with either NBD or DCPD. The high σ-donor character of NH2Bz favored the reactivity of the six-coordinated complex 2, contrary to complex 1. The large cone angle of NHBuPh defined the fivecoordination in 3 and the best reactivity for ROMP, in spite of the low σ-donor character as in NH2Ph.

The objective was to explore the usefulness of the logistic EuroSCORE to stratify the long-term survival curves in a sample of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The 8-year survival of 390 patients undergoing cardiac surgery between 2003 and 2004 was analyzed, according to the basal value of the EuroSCORE, patients were classified into three risk groups: < 5%, 5-14.9% and ≥15%. Eight-years Kaplan-Meier's survival after coronary artery bypass grafting divided by the basal EuroSCORE was 83.5% for a basal risk < 5%, 65.2% for a basal risk 5 to 14.9% and 40.0% for a basal risk ≥15% (p = 0.000); whereas for valve or combined surgery it was 86.1%, 60.0% and 18.2% respectively (p = 0.0000). For all patients, ROC area was 0.759 (p=0.000), for a EuroSCORE <5% it was 0.689 (p = 0.002), between 5 and 14.9% it was 0.544 (p = 0.499) and for ≥15% it was 0.725 (p = 0.067). In conclusion, the logistic EuroSCORE allowed properly stratify the long-term survival curves in a sample of patients undergoing cardiac surgery, both the coronary and valve or combined surgery. Long-term results stratified by risk are a reasonable way to present late postoperative survival.

El objetivo fue explorar la utilidad del EuroSCORE logístico para estratificar las curvas de supervivencia alejada en una muestra de pacientes sometidos a cirugía cardíaca. Se analizaron los resultados a 8 años de 390 pacientes sometidos a cirugía cardíaca entre 2003-2004, de acuerdo al puntaje inicial del EuroSCORE logístico, divididos en tres grupos de riesgo: < 5%, 5-14.9% y ≥15%. La supervivencia por Kaplan-Meier a 8 años de la cirugía coronaria dividida por el EuroSCORE fue 83.5% para un riesgo inicial < 5%, 65.2% para un riesgo inicial entre 5 y 14.9% y 40.0% para un riesgo inicial ≥15% (p = 0.000); mientras que de la cirugía valvular o combinada fue 86.1%, 60.0% y 18.2% respectivamente (p = 0.0000). Para el total de pacientes, el área ROC fue 0.759 (p = 0.000), para un EuroSCORE <5% fue 0.689 (p = 0.002), entre 5 y 14.9% fue 0.544 (p = 0.499) y para ≥15% fue 0.725 (p = 0.067). En conclusión, el EuroSCORE logístico permitió estratificar adecuadamente las curvas de supervivencia alejada en una muestra de pacientes sometidos a cirugía cardíaca, tanto en la cirugía coronaria como en la valvular o combinada. La estratificación de los resultados a largo plazo separados por riesgo constituye una forma razonable de presentar el pronóstico.
