"Este livro traz uma ampla perspectiva sobre as violências sofridas por estudantes na Faculdade de Medicina da USP, articulando relatos da experiência individual de Scalisa na universidade, depoimentos cruciais coletados ao longo da CPI dos Trotes e uma extensa análise sobre o caráter dessas práticas e sua relação com a teoria arendtiana da banalidade do mal e do totalitarismo. Scalisa aborda em seu texto os episódios mais emblemáticos dos trotes, como o assassinato do estudante Edson Tsung em 1999, os casos de abuso sexual ocorridos ao longo dos anos 2010, e a violência intrínseca a organizações como a Atlética e o chamado 'Show Medicina'. Além disso, um dos pontos talvez mai...
Nas vinte reportagens reunidas neste livro, Marsiglia demonstra se interessar pelos mais diversos assuntos, mas é possível identificar uma preocupação recorrente: contar histórias que revelem ao leitor episódios obscuros do passado — e também do presente — do país. Isso pode ser visto no perfil do juiz que, ainda em plena ditadura, condenou o Estado pela morte do jornalista Vladimir Herzog, ocorrida em 1975. Ou no relato da movimentada — e violenta — madrugada de sábado em um pronto-socorro na periferia de São Paulo. Em um dos textos mais característicos do estilo de Marsiglia, o repórter conta a história de uma onça que deu as caras na beira de uma rodovia. O fato, ao contrário do que seria de se esperar, é reconstituído do ponto de vista, e com o "linguajar", da onça. Há quem defina a utilização de tais recursos narrativos como jornalismo literário, mas o nome pouco importa. O que faz diferença é ler um texto que, mais do que simplesmente informar, é capaz de entregar ao leitor uma grande história.
This monograph provides extensive coverage of the latest technology and clinical practice of revision total knee arthroplasty. Thirty years of clinical experience in this field have led to effective solutions to most of the problems that arise with failed total knee arthroplasty so that most revision procedures result in a stable, functional knee with adequate soft-tissue coverage and muscle power. Included are chapters on bone reconstruction and ligament balancing, large structural allografts, ligament advancement, skin problems, evaluation and management of infection, and summary and conclusions. The monograph's goal is to present the practising orthopaedic surgeon with basic clinical knowledge and practical surgical techniques to salvage and reconstruct the failed total knee arthroplasty so that the highest possible chance of success can be achieved.
This book introduces the exciting field of orthobiology, which will usher in a new array of therapeutic approaches that stimulate the body’s natural resources to regenerate musculoskeletal tissues damaged by trauma or disease. The book addresses a range of key topics and discusses emerging approaches that promise to offer effective alternatives to traditional treatments for injuries to bone, cartilage, muscles, ligaments, and tendons. It explains in detail how a variety of innovative products, including biomaterials, growth factors, and autogenous cells, together provide the basis for the regeneration of these musculoskeletal structures and how recent scientific progress has created unique opportunities to address pathological situations that until recently have been treated with unsatisfactory results. The authors are experts from across the world who come together to provide a truly global overview. The book is published in collaboration with ISAKOS. It will be invaluable for all with an interest in this area of medicine, which has already attained huge popularity in Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine and has also attracted the attention of the lay public.

The present volume represents views of major methodological issues, current research fronts and selected applied concerns from the perspective of the disabled performer. Authors write from a number of theoretical viewpoints and sketch future research directions in these chapters.
