RESUMO
Resumo Discute-se neste artigo o papel desempenhado pela Gaceta Médica de México no processo de institucionalização e profissionalização da medicina científica no país entre 1860 e 1890. A partir da noção de tecnologia literária utilizada por Steven Shapin e Simon Schaffer e da análise qualitativa de relatórios médicos com enunciados típicos, examina-se o modo como os membros da Academia Nacional de Medicina, instituição responsável pelo periódico, e da Escola Nacional de Medicina coletivizaram suas experiências e prescreveram formas de ser e agir por meio de suas publicações. Busca-se demonstrar o caráter de "manual não sistematizado" da publicação, importante instrumento de normatização e regulação dos saberes médicos no México nesse período.
Abstract This article discusses the role played by the Gaceta Médica de México in the process of institutionalizing and professionalizing scientific medicine in Mexico from 1860 to 1890. From the notion of literary technology utilized by Steven Shapin and Simon Schaffer and qualitative analysis of medical reports containing typical discourse, we examine how members of the Mexican National Academy of Medicine (the institution responsible for this journal) and the National School of Medicine collected their experiences and prescribed ways of being and acting through their publications. The aim is to demonstrate how this periodical acted as an unsystematized manual, an important instrument for normalizing and regulating medical knowledge in Mexico during this period.

Gaceta Médica de México, official journal of the National Academy of Medicine of Mexico, began its circulation on September 15, 1864, and continues to be positioned as the oldest medical periodical publication. However, its publication was temporarily interrupted. The present study analyzes the interruption suffered by Gaceta in 1916, its resumption in 1919, and the causes that originated that discontinuity. The consequences of the so-called Mexican revolution and the enthusiasm and commitment of the academy and its editors to continue working for the progress of national medicine are discussed.
Gaceta Médica de México, órgano oficial de la Academia Nacional de Medicina de México, empezó su tiraje el 15 de septiembre de 1864 y continúa posicionada como la publicación periódica médica de mayor antigüedad. Sin embargo, en algún momento de su historia la publicación fue suspendida temporalmente. El presente estudio analiza la interrupción que sufrió Gaceta en 1916, su reanudación en 1919 y las causas que originaron esa discontinuidad. Se habla de las consecuencias que dejó la denominada Revolución Mexicana y del entusiasmo y compromiso de la Academia y sus editores por seguir trabajando por el progreso de la medicina nacional.

Resumen La Academia Nacional de Medicina se fundó hace 141 años, durante la intervención francesa. A la sombra de la flamante corporación, se dieron los primeros pasos de la cardioangiología mexicana tanto en el campo médico como en el quirúrgico. Después de la desintegración del segundo imperio siguieron los adelantos médicos y quirúrgicos de dicha disciplina. Las publicaciones correspondientes figuran en los primeros volúmenes de la "Gaceta Médica de México", órgano de la Academia, la cual sigue publicándose en nuestros días. Estos diferentes eslabones permitieron el surgimiento de la verdadera especialidad cardiológica en los años 40 del siglo XX, gracias a la clarividencia del Maestro Ignacio Chávez, padre de la cardiología mexicana. Como ejemplos de la aplicación de criterios epistemológicos en los dominios de la cardioangiología, se citan la construcción del esfigmomanómetro de Riva-Rocci en la Italia del siglo XIX y la introducción de la llamada terapéutica metabólica de ciertas cardiopatías en el México contemporáneo del siglo XX.
Abstract The National Academy of Medicine was founded 141 years ago during the French intervention. Under the sponsorship of this brand-new medical association, Mexican cardioangiology took its first steps in the medical and surgical field as well. After the falling of the second empire, the medical and surgical advances of this discipline continued. The corresponding publications appeared in different volumes of the "Gaceta Médica de México"; at present journal of the Academy still published in our time. These steps permitted the development of the true cardiologic speciality during 40s of the twentieth century, due to the vision of Professor Ignacio Chávez, father of Mexican cardiology. Some examples of application are the epistemologic criteria in cardiologycal domains such as the conception of Riva-Rocci's sphygmomanometer in Italy in the nineteenth century and the so-called cardiac metabolic therapy in Mexico of our time, are included.

Luis Hidalgo y Carpio (1818-1879) fue un insigne médico mexicano especializado en aspectos forenses, que hizo interesantes aportaciones a la medicina de su tiempo; sin embargo, para el perfil que interesa destacar, el de editor, las fuentes no son abundantes, pues precisamente en 1867, cuando Hidalgo y Carpio ocupó la presidencia de la Sociedad Médica de México, conocida posteriormente como Academia Nacional de Medicina, se interrumpió la publicación de Gaceta Médica de México, medio informativo de la Sociedad Médica. El papel de nuestro personaje como editor fue de gran trascendencia debido a que la comunidad médica requería un medio de comunicación donde externara sus logros científicos y se retroalimentara con las lecturas de la publicación en cuestión, que tuvo un gran alcance no solo por el carácter periódico que la caracterizó sino también por el organismo que representaba.
Luis Hidalgo y Carpio (1818-1879) was a notable physician who made important contributions to the field of medicine during his time. Nevertheless, reference sources on the aspect from Hidalgo y Carpio that we would like to emphasize (i.e. as an editor of a medical journal) are scarce since precisely when Hidalgo y Carpio was named President of the Medical Society (later the Academia Nacional de Medicina), in 1987, the publication of the Gaceta Médica de México was temporarily interrupted. Hidalgo y Carpio played a key role as an editor at a time when the medical community of Mexico required a means whereby the scientific achievements could be published and discussed among peers and colleagues. Under Hidalgo y Carpio, the Gaceta Médica de México soon reached a wide audience, not only as a periodical publication but also for the prestige of the Academy that represented.
