Olhar Raro

As doenças raras afetam diretamente a vida de cerca de 13 milhões de pessoas, no Brasil, de acordo com a Organização Mundial da Saúde. E, segundo pesquisa realizada, pelo Instituto Brasileiro de Opinião e Estatística – IBOPE Inteligência, mostra que a cada 10 brasileiros, três desconhecem o que são doenças raras. Entre elas, há as progressivas, as crônicas e as degenerativas. Grande parte delas não tem cura e pode levar à morte. Mas esse cenário sombrio pode ser transformado com base no diagnóstico precoce e no tratamento adequado, pois ambos são capazes de aumentar a expectativa e a qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Para que isso seja possível, é necessário combater um...

The Body as a Mirror of the Soul

Physiognomy, the history of racial classifications, and the interplay between natural philosophy, medicine, and ethics The idea of the body as a mirror of the soul has fascinated mankind throughout history. Being able to see through an individual, and drawing conclusions on their character solely based on a selection of external features, is the subject of physiognomy, and has a long tradition running well into recent times. However, the pre-modern, especially medieval background of this discipline has remained underexplored.

Understanding and Exploiting Host-Commensal Interactions to Combat Pathogens

Trillions of commensal microbes reside on and inside the human body, including the intestinal and respiratory tracts, which encompass various microbial taxa, such as bacteria, fungi, archea and viruses. The close proximity of microbes with the host provides an opportunity to continually interact with each other. Advances in research approaches, including high-throughput sequencing, have allowed us to study host and commensal microbes at the genetic and functional levels. Recent studies suggest that commensal microbes play a crucial role in the development of the host’s immune system and induce innate and adaptive immune responses against pathogens. It is also becoming apparent that the gut...
