Relatos de madres de desaparecidos: voces desde el colectivo / Stories of mothers of the disappeared: voices from the collective

La desaparición forzada en el país es alarmante, sobre todo de jóvenes de 15 a 29 años. Este evento rompe el lazo social y deja a las madres en estado traumático. El propósito de esta investigación fue triangularlas narrativas de desaparición, denuncia e integración de las madres al colectivo. Los resultados muestran que la vivencia de desaparición y el proceso de denuncia son tramas de degradación, donde las madres quedan revictimizadas, dado el maltrato de servidores públicos; mientras que, la integración a un colectivo hace de ideal reparatorio, pues confraternizan las madres en su dolor y resistencia en la búsqueda. Se concluye invitando a los psicólogos a buscar modos de elaboración acordes a la vivencia de trauma social AU

A medicina é uma piada: representações humorísticas sobre médicos no jornal Santuário da Trindade / Medicine is a joke: humorous depictions of physicians in the Santuário da Trindade newspaper

O artigo analisa a representação do saber médico em Goiás nas primeiras décadas do século XX por meio de anedotas e artigos presentes no jornal católico Santuário da Trindade, em circulação de 1922 a 1931. Refletindo certo estranhamento à modernização da medicina, as anedotas ridicularizavam a ciência médica, demonstrando aquilo que Bakhtin caracterizou como a irreverência da cultura popular em relação às instituições sérias. Por outro lado, os saberes médicos foram altamente valorizados nos artigos do periódico, servindo como legitimadores do discurso moralizador de seus editores. Assim, no jornal, esses saberes foram representados, simultaneamente, de modo respeitoso e debochado, revelando a complexidade da absorção das mudanças nas práticas médicas no período.(AU)

This article analyzes representations of medical knowledge in Goiás in the early decades of the twentieth century through anecdotes and articles in the Catholic newspaper Santuário da Trindade, which circulated from 1922 to 1931. The anecdotes reflect a certain distancing from the modernization of medicine and ridicule medical science, demonstrating what Bakhtin characterized as the irreverence of popular culture in relation to serious institutions. On the other hand, medical knowledge was greatly esteemed in the paper's articles, and served to legitimize the moralizing discourse of its editors. Therefore, in the same newspaper this knowledge was simultaneously represented respectfully and mocked, revealing the complexity of how changes in medical practices during the period were absorbed.(AU)

Electronic health records: upsides, downsides, and inside-outsides on the way toward their use in clinical practice.

BACKGROUND: The author reviews his personal history learning to use Electronic Health Records (EHRs) and examination room computers. He asks key questions that pertain to the use of EHRs in practice and discusses the current state of knowledge regarding EHRs and doctor-patient communication. SUMMARY: He notes that--regardless of the ubiquity of computers in our society and the recognition that they are a part of current medical practice--one cannot just plop down a computer in the examination room, click "on," and anticipate that communication between doctors and patients will flow smoothly. CONCLUSIONS: He recommends the accompanying article by Duke, Frankel, and Reis (see p. 358 in this issue) as an excellent step-by-step guide for framing how to teach the basics of EHR use in clinical practice.
