The article presents an interview with historian Roger Chartier, a specialist in the history of books, reading, and publishing. During the interview, Chartier mentions the influence of scholars such as Daniel Roche, Vincenzo Ferrone, Denis Richet, Pierre Bourdieu, and Norbert Elias on his career. The existence of a fourth generation of the Annales, an important historiographical current, is also discussed. The diversity in historiographical proposals from this generation is talked about, as well as the importance of the relationship between knowledge and writing in history. Additionally, the transformation of books with the emergence of digital books and the decrease in the reading of physical books is mentioned, which poses changes in reading practices and the nature of texts. Reflection is also made on current dangers related to the spread of false information on social media, highlighting the importance of maintaining a critical judgment in our cultural practices.

Objective: To apply an instruction sheet on the prevention, care and treatment of oral lesions in adolescents with cancer undergoing chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Material and methods: We studied 60 adolescent cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy in two groups: one that was given no instructions and another that received an instruction sheet. Results: The prevalence of oral lesions secondary to radiotherapy and chemotherapy was 59%. The lesions most frequently found were: dysgeusia, xerostomia, mucositis, oral pain, infection, dental caries and periodontal disease. The frequency, severity of injuries, complications and sequels were more significant in patients without instruction sheet. Conclusions: It is important to incorporate an instruction sheet, for better control and care of these patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article analyzes the labor force participation of household members receiving remittances in Paraguay. It involves a specific study of the effects of remittances from the South on a South country, using a propensity score approach to solve selection bias problems. The results highlight the structural differences between households that receive remittances from the South and those that do not. It is suggested that within a context of a high degree of informality and precariousness, remittances, mainly from Argentina, are sent to households in the lowest socioeconomic strata, which affects labor force participation, tending to reduce it.

Changes were identified in Peruvian migration to Córdoba (Argentina) in its sociodemographic composition, the importance of networks and their relation to social, economic and political gap between Peru and Argentina. Data were used from the 2001 national census and a specific survey on Peruvians living in Córdoba in 2009. It is found that the city of Córdoba is a consolidated migratory destination for migrants from diverse socioeconomic background, having been primarily a place of higher education reserved for upper-middle classes in Peru. For those who arrived more recently, there has been a rise in the economic integration after the first arrival, which reduces the initial overqualification. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Papillomavirus or papilovirus is considered the most prevalent group of viruses that cause tumors of head and neck associated with infection with human papilloma virus (HPV). Purpose: Carry out a systematic review of literature on HPV as causal agent of upper aerodigestive tract neoplasm (UADTN), according to epidemiological and clinical data. Methods: Pertinent biomedical literature was searched in several databases such as Medline, Proquest, Science Direct, Ovid and Cochrane, as well as available information from websites of national journals and organizations. Results: According to systematic reviews that did not show findings in Colombia, the prevalence of HPV in the process of malignant lesions of UADTN is 35.6 %, in the oropharynx, 23.5 %, in oral cavity, and 24 % in larynx. Worldwide, the prevalence of head and neck cancer produced by high-risk HPV, such as HPV 16, is approximately 30.9 % in oropharynx, 16 % in oral cavity and 16.6 % in larynx. This review also highlights that the genotypes of low-risk HPV are HPV 31, 45, 6 and 11. It emphasizes the effectiveness of the PCR-RFLP method as the starting point to monitor the infection and progression into cancer, to understand its virulence, and to contribute to reduce incidence rates because of the inaccuracies of clinical diagnosis by conventional methods that hinder the early detection of UADTN.

Developed countries' growing restrictions on immigration invite us to examine migration between "southern countries." Compared to south-north flows, these migrations usually involve shorter distances and poorer populations. The flows also have a long history and target certain locales in the region. In the Southern Cone, Argentina has historically been the destination for migrants from Paraguay, Bolivia, and Chile. Beginning in the 1950s, when overseas immigration ceased almost completely, the flows from neighboring countries took on great significance. This article examines these flows into Argentina, considering changes brought about by the combined effects of external factors and a cumulative process over time, which together determine if the flows will continue or come to an end.

Angiogenesis is an important event for the tumoral growth and progression. The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is the most important factor in the vascular neoformation, and the increase on its expression is associated with tumoral progression and worse prognosis in many different malignant tumors. Objective: To evaluate the expression of VEGF-A and its receptor KDR/VEGF-2 in papillary thyroid carcinoma (CPT) larger and smaller than 10mm, with and without extracapsular extension (CPT-E and CPT-NE). Methods: The expression of VEGF-A and KDR was studied with tissular microarray (TMA) in 62 cases of CPT-E and CPT-NE larger and smaller than 10mm. The positivity of VEGF-A and KDR was predominantly citoplasmatic, and it was evaluated in (-), (+), and (++). Results: The expression of VEGF-A was very similar in CPT-E and CPT-NE with no statistical significance between tumoral size and between CPT-E and CPT-NE, but the expression intensity was harder for CPT-E >10mm, while the expression of KDR was more frequently observed in CPT-NE ⩽10mm, the intensity was similar for both groups and sizes. Conclusion: The results obtained correlate with the results publicated before, nevertheless, there are no publicated studies related with extracapsular extension and correlating VEGF-A and KDR. The intensity of the expression of VEGF-A was harder in CPT-E >10mm, while the expression intensity of KDR was similar between both groups concluding that the overexpression of VEGF-A, not the same for KDR, may be related to the extracapsular invasion, and because of that represents a worse prognosis.

This article aims to expose some items related to the following hypothesis: The reconstruction of democratic public culture of this country needs to recover its past time of human rights violations as a common and collective exercise of the right to remember. This is justified by the following presupposition: It is impossible to build up a present or future decent society by denying or trivializing the past as if it were only an epiphenomenon. Purposeful oblivion helps to make unfeasible civil ethics, shared in the public scenario; therefore they contribute to undermine the density of a democratic way of life. All this is nowadays highly relevant: globalization with its dialectics modernity/modernization is prone to solve the codes of reciprocal recognition and the possibilities of righteous societies at national or worldly level.

Micropropagation through in vitro plant cultivation allows large-scale production of identical individuals genetically to the starting material. Woody species have difficulties in the acclimatization stage due to their slowness in the development of physiological response to environmental changes. The ultimate success of in vitro propagation depends on the capacity of plants to adapt in the moment of transfering from the laboratory to the greenhouse conditions. One of the tools to offset losses during acclimatization is the use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), which sets mutualistic symbiotic associations unspecific with 90 % of vascular plants. AMF, because of their action as agents of growth bioregulation as biofertilizers or biocontrollers have received special attention in handling and propagation of fruit plants. In this work the effects of inoculation with AMF at the start of acclimatization are presented to mycorrhization. Inoculation with one type of AMF over two rootstocks of apple was done in a clone of M9 and one rootstock of the Cornell-Geneva series (RN29 and Geneva®41 respectively) set in three different substrates. Seedlings inoculated with AMF when compared to the control, presented further expansion of their leaves, bigger diameter and greater height, all significantly different. Acclimatization period was reduced from 60 to 40 days. The incorporation of this type of technologies could generate a more sustainable management of plant production with less use of agrochemicals.
