Hanseníase na prática clínica
É comum ouvirmos frases contraditórias sobre a hanseníase. Alguns até acham que a doença não existe mais. Ao mesmo tempo em que entendemos a hanseníase como uma doença milenar, atrelada a um forte estigma, sabemos também que é uma doença curável. Esta dualidade tem convivido por algumas décadas desde a implantação de um tratamento eficiente através da utilização da poliquimioterapia (PQT) pela Organização Mundial da Saúde. Eventualmente ainda ouvimos ou lemos o termo lepra e seus derivados no Brasil. Às vezes é dito de forma pejorativa e discriminatória por alguns e às vezes por descuido. De qualquer forma ainda estigmatiza muito os pacientes. Milhões de pessoas afe...

Hansen’s Disease
Hansen’s disease (leprosy) is endemic in more than 100 countries worldwide, with over 200,000 new diagnoses each year and more than 4 million people living with some form of HD-related impairment. The World Health Organization’s ‘Global Leprosy Strategy’ timeline for Hansen’s disease elimination indicates that it will be encountered in clinical practice in endemic countries for at least another decade. Increasing north-to-south migration, global travel and overseas medical work mean that physicians in non-endemic countries will also encounter patients with Hansen’s disease, which can affect people for many years before diagnosis and after treatment. For busy clinicians, it repres...
Anticipating Criminal Behaviour
In the first decade of this century, the focus of law-enforcement agencies has shifted from prosecuting crime to anticipating crime. This approach emphasizes the discovery of narratives in crime-related data. However, while narratives are at the mainstay of entertainment, law, and politics, a scientific method by which narratives can be created - and subsequently be used to anticipate criminal behavior - still has to be established. In the creative industry, a narrative is generated by a scenario. A scenario describes the interactions between the characters and includes information - about behavior, goals, motivations, modi operandi, and resistances - that have to be overcome. Furthermore, a...

The Amazing Armadillo
“Chatty, humorous, and sometimes almost hysterically funny . . . Everything, perhaps even more, that you might have wanted to know about armadillos.” —The Quarterly Review of Biology Perhaps no creature has so fired the imagination of a populace as the armadillo, that most ungainly, awkward, and timid little animal. What is it that sets this quizzical little creature apart from the rest of the animal kingdom? Larry L. Smith and Robin W. Doughty ably answer this question in The Amazing Armadillo: Geography of a Folk Critter. This informative book traces the spread of the nine-banded armadillo from its first notice in South Texas late in the 1840s to its current range east to Florida and...
