Este grupo de trabalho tem como proposta abrir espaço para debates so-bre pensamentos e modos de vida de pessoas que construíram suas iden-tidades em suas diversas perspectivas com base em modelos de diversas cultura e costumes que se confrontam na sociedade contemporânea em suas múltiplas acepções de vida.

Sendo cultura e identidade conceitos de difícil definição de vida pela sua amplitude, o simpósio abraçou diferentes visões e pro-postas, buscando promover a aproximação entre os profissionais de di-versos países com realidades e concepções diferenciadas tendo em vista a riqueza da troca de experiências e saberes relacionados às temáticas em estudo.
Encyclopedia of Infectious Diseases
Discover how the application of novel multidisciplinary, integrative approaches and technologies are dramatically changing our understanding of the pathogenesis of infectious diseases and their treatments. Each article presents the state of the science, with a strong emphasis on new and emerging medical applications. The Encyclopedia of Infectious Diseases is organized into five parts. The first part examines current threats such as AIDS, malaria, SARS, and influenza. The second part addresses the evolution of pathogens and the relationship between human genetic diversity and the spread of infectious diseases. The next two parts highlight the most promising uses of molecular identification, ...
Guidelines on the Management of Latent Tuberculosis Infection
BACKGROUND: Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI), defined as a state of persistent immune response to prior-acquired Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens without evidence of clinically manifested active TB, affects about one-third of the world's population. Approximately 10% of people with LTBI will develop active TB disease in their lifetime, with the majority developing it within the first five years after initial infection. Currently available treatments have an efficacy ranging from 60% to 90%. Systematic testing and treatment of LTBI in at-risk populations is a critical component of WHO's eight-point framework adapted from the End TB Strategy to target pre-elimination and, ultimately, el...
