Abortion And Parliament: A Study On Brazil, Uruguay And Argentina [aborto Y Parlamento: Un Estudio Sobre Brasil, Uruguay Y Argentina]

This article consists of a comparative study among three countries, namely, Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay, concerning their legislations and the participation of many different actors regarding the decriminalization and/or legalization of abortion. This topic entered the public agenda of all three countries as part of their processes of democratization, which began in the 1980s. It also involved a number of other interventions, such as action by women's movements and positions taken by physicians' associations and other social actors during the 1990s and the first years of the 21st century. A number of interventions in the legislative sphere were studied (in the countries' senates and chambers of deputies), as well as strategies for public policies implemented by the executive branches, monitored by women's movements as they faced serious violations of human rights. The disrespect of such rights, consolidated in the constitutions of the three countries, especially affects women, who are the most vulnerable regarding rights to health and equality. In addition to inroads and setbacks during the period studied, the author also studied the importance of keeping the topic on the public agenda and in the media during the period mentioned above. The media played an important role both in promoting and de-legitimizing the right to abortion.262219236(2007) Morbilidad Materna Severa En La Argentina.

Erratum: Thermoregulation and Vasopressin Secretion during Polymicrobial Sepsis

<i>Objective:</i> We investigated the time course of thermoregulation, nitric oxide (NO) formation and hydroelectrolytic alterations, as well as mean arterial pressure and arginine vasopressin (AVP) secretion, in experimental sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). <i>Methods:</i> Male Wistar rats submitted to CLP or a sham operation were divided into 4 groups, as follows: group 1, for survival rate evaluation for 24 h; group 2, for body temperature (Tb) analysis; group 3, for mean arterial pressure registration, and group 4, for blood collection and processing of the neurohypophysis and hypothalamic nuclei 0, 2, 4, 6 and 24 h after surgery. AVP levels and content were measured in plasma, neurohypophysis and the hypothalamic paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei. <i>Results:</i> Animals which underwent CLP showed high mortality, a progressive decrease in mean arterial pressure and an increase in plasma NO. Tb dropped during the first 4 h and showed a progressive increase 6 h after surgery. Plasma AVP levels increased immediately after CLP surgery and again at 6 h, before returning to basal levels at 24 h. This was followed by a depletion of neurohypophyseal AVP content at 4 h that continued until 24 h. AVP content in the supraoptic nucleus was elevated 24 h after CLP surgery, while in the paraventricular nucleus, an increase was observed at 6 h and 24 h. <i>Conclusions:</i> In the present study, laparotomy and hypotension may have been responsible for the increase in plasma AVP in the initial phase of polymicrobial sepsis, and this may have contributed to the observed hypothermia. Moreover, an apparently impaired replenishment of AVP content in the neurohypophysis, possibly due to increased NO formation, may explain the impaired AVP secretion in the late phase of severe sepsis
