La detección del cáncer cervicouterino mediante citología ha ido disminuyendo su incidencia en un 50%. Los métodos moleculares que detectan la presencia de HPV, consisten en la amplificación específica del DNA viral. La prueba de captura de Híbridos Hybrid Capture II (HC–II),(11), es un método semicuantitativo no radiactivo, basado en la hibridación del DNA de HPV con sondas de RNA, y en el que se usan anticuerpos monoclonales específicos que luego se revelan por quimioluminiscencia. A través de este método se detectaron cinco genotipos de bajo riesgo (6,11,42,43,44) y trece de alto riesgo (13,16,18,31,33,35,39,45,51,52,56,58,59 y 68).
Objetivo:
exponer test de HPV como método de cribado primario para diagnóstico temprano de genotipos de alto riesgo del HPV.
Métodos: se realizó una revisión sobre el Test de virus papiloma humano como método de
screening primario para el diagnóstico de neoplasias de cérvix uterino en Internet. La búsqueda abarcó artículos publicados en los últimos 10 años. Se consultaron las bases de datos de sistemas referativos, como MEDLINE, PubMed, Elsevier, Cochrane y SciELO con la utilización de varios descriptores tanto en inglés como en español. Se obtuvieron 27 artículos.
Challenges and Opportunities of Environmental Sustainability and Social Justice in the Face of Climate Change and Ecological Crisis in Japan
Authors: Takada Misaki 
Published: February 2024

Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate challenges and opportunities of environmental sustainability and social justice in the face of climate change and ecological crisis in Japan
Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries.
Findings: Japan faces challenges in environmental sustainability and social justice due to its reliance on fossil fuels and an aging population. Transitioning to renewables and addressing healthcare for the elderly are critical. However, Japan's technological prowess presents opportunities for cleaner energy solutions. The country's strong sense of community can aid social justice efforts during climate-related disasters, promising a more sustainable and equitable future.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Environmental justice theory, ecological modernization theory & political ecology theory may be used to anchor future studies on challenges and opportunities of environmental sustainability and social justice in the face of climate change and ecological crisis in Japan. Policymakers and practitioners should adopt integrated strategies that consider both environmental sustainability and social justice in climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts. Governments and international organizations should incorporate environmental justice principles into climate policies, ensuring that marginalized communities have equitable access to environmental benefits and are protected from environmental harms.
Anxiety and Wonder
Authors: Balaska Maria 
Published: February 2024

At times, we find ourselves unexpectedly immersed in a mood that lacks any clear object or identifiable cause. These uncanny moments tend to be hastily dismissed as inconsequential, left without explanation. Maria Balaska examines two such cases: wonder and anxiety – what it means to prepare for them, what life may look like after experiencing them, and what insights we can take from those experiences.
For Kierkegaard anxiety is a door to freedom, for Heidegger wonder is a distress that opens us to the truth of Being, and for Wittgenstein wonder and anxiety are deeply connected to the ethical. Drawing on themes from these thinkers and bringing them into dialogue, Balaska argues that in our encounters with nothing we encounter the very potential of our existence. Most importantly, we confront what is most inconspicuous and fundamental about the human condition and what makes it possible to encounter anything at all: our distinct capacity for making sense of things.
Jimmy Carter in the White House
Authors: Green Robert K. 
Published: February 2024

This fresh examination of Carter’s presidency (1977-1981), the first in over twenty years, sheds new light on his time in office, reflecting on his domestic record, his key policies on the economy, civil rights, and energy, and challenging misconceptions about his character and leadership.
The success of Jimmy Carter’s post-presidential career and the scandals of his successors, have begun to generate a nostalgic view of Carter’s time in the White House. This book looks at his presidency during a time of ideological conflict in the US political landscape, between liberalism and rising conservatism, embodied respectively by Kennedy and Reagan, Carter’s efforts to hold the centre or non-ideological, moral position, and the impact of his character, particularly his faith, on how he exercised power in Washington. In doing so, it reveals new interpretations of his leadership style, and its impact on his time in office.
Manifesta, Art, Society and Politics
Authors: Çolak Erdem 
Published: February 2024

This is the first monograph fully dedicated to critically investigating the political, economic, artistic, urban and societal relationships of Manifesta - European Biennial of Contemporary Art, a European nomadic biennial initiated in the post-Cold War era.

Manifesta, Art, Society and Politics provides a deeply-researched and engaging analysis of the critically overlooked Manifesta exhibitions, as well as their changing goals and discourse since the first edition in 1996.
The book is split into four parts, divided by theme and following the exhibitions chronologically. Providing a comprehensive overview of one of the most important biennials in Europe, Manifesta, Art, Society and Politics investigates the relationship between large-scale art exhibitions, culture-led regeneration and urban transformation. It is essential reading for students and researchers of exhibition and curatorial studies, art history and cultural studies.
Wild Woman
Authors: Forrester Philippa 
Published: February 2024

An engaging blend of conservation stories and humorous, personal anecdotes from Philippa Forrester about women who, like her, choose to live and work in the wild.
Surviving in the wilderness has long been associated with men, and conservation and environmental biology have traditionally been male-dominated subjects. Yet many remarkable women also choose to live and work in wild and challenging landscapes.
In Wild Woman, Philippa Forrester considers the grit and determination required for women to maintain connections to wildlife and shares stories of female conservation heroes and other extraordinary wild women working in nature.
Talking to women from around the world, Philippa studies and celebrates what it means to be a wild woman. From the sixteenth-century botanist who was the first woman to circumnavigate the globe to modern-day women responding to bear attacks in Yellowstone, working to rewild reserves in South Africa, photographing Caribou in the Arctic and more, Philippa examines how these women benefit from a life spent in the wilderness and also considers what the natural world gains from them.
Relating some of her own experiences from three decades spent travelling around the world and working in some of the wildest places on Earth, Philippa asks: what does it take for a woman to live or work in the wild?

These differences can be attributed to a variety of economies, geographies, and politics. American teens will find a special interest in the region, as it is the region in the world most similar to their own culture.
Each chapter covers a country in the region, and is written by a native of that country. The 12 countries profiled are Denmark, England, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Malta, The Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and Turkey. Each chapter concludes with a resource guide providing print and electronic sources for additional research.
Teenage Sex and Pregnancy
Authors: Males Mike A. 
Published: February 2024

This detailed, exhaustively documented account shows how and why just about everyone in today’s teen pregnancy debate is wrong—often disastrously so.
Teenage Sex and Pregnancy: Modern Myths, Unsexy Realities presents a unique view of its subject by analyzing the extensive myths and fears that surround discussion of teenage sex and pregnancy, including their relationship to popular culture, poverty, adult sexual behaviors, and anxieties toward the increasingly public roles of young women.
Award-winning author Mike Males argues that today’s discussions rely largely on falsehoods and the suppression of crucial realities. His work details a new view of popular culture as a largely beneficial feature of teens’ lives and presents a carefully documented analysis demolishing destructive myths about the “new girl.” Debunking popular arguments, he shows that the “teen sex” debate is mired in interest-group talking points that ignore difficult realities to advance politically attuned agendas. It’s time, he writes, to modernize the discussion, recognizing that teens act in ways consistent with their interests, with the sexual behaviors of adults, and with the school and job opportunities afforded them.
Tuberculosis
Authors: Dyer Carol A. 
Published: February 2024

This thought-provoking biography of tuberculosis presents medical, historical, and social perspectives on this reemergent threat.
Tuberculosis is a complicated medical condition that has a rich and important history, a distinctive social context, and an active and destructive present. The disease appears in Greek literature as early as 460 BCE and was a favorite of 19th-century novelists whose heroines often succumbed to "consumption." Through history, the development of TB diagnosis and treatment has been synonymous with events in the development of medicine.
Tuberculosis presents TB from the perspective of the people and events that shaped its past and the factors that influence its current global state. The book begins with an essay discussing the importance of the social factors that influence the transmission and progression of TB. The following eight chapters focus on disease-specific information, historical and biographical perspectives, influence on the arts, the current state of TB in the world, and future directions. Throughout, medical information about the disease is intertwined with a historical and cultural perspective to illustrate the state of the disease today.
Turning the World Upside Down
Authors: York Neil L. 
Published: February 2024

York illustrates how Revolutionary Americans founded an empire as well as a nation, and how they saw the two as inseparable. While they had rejected Britain and denounced power politics, they would engage in realpolitik and mimic Britain as they built their empire of liberty. England had become Great Britain as an imperial nation, and Britons believed that their empire promised much to all fortunate enough to be part of it. Colonial Americans shared that belief and sense of pride. But as clashing interests and changing identities put them at odds with the prevailing view in London, dissident colonists displaced Anglo-American exceptionalism with their own sense of place and purpose, an American vision of manifest destiny.
Revolutionary Americans wanted to believe that creating a new nation meant that they had left behind the old problems of empire. What they discovered was that the basic problems of empire unavoidably came with them into the new union. They too found it difficult to build a union in the midst of rival interests and competing ideologies. Ironically, they learned that they could only succeed by aping the balance of power politics used by Britain that they had only recently decried.
Under the Eagle's Claw
Authors: Kofas Jon 
Published: February 2024

The record shows that the United States often acts as if it has license to disregard the sovereign rights of other peoples and nations. Kofas argues the United States has used Greece as a means of satisfying its own interests for the past half-century, and that Greece has suffered mightily at the hands of its protector. The United States has deemed this strategically situated nation too important to its own geopolitical ambitions to allow it to realize the democratic freedoms so often espoused.
Because of U.S. pressure, Greeks have been subjected to authoritarian regimes and have carried huge military budgets that have significantly weakened social programs. Kofas shows that Greece's own domestic and international interests were consistently subordinated to America's.
Understanding the High-Functioning Alcoholic
Authors: Benton Sarah A. 
Published: February 2024

Who is the typical alcoholic among the 12.5 million living in the United States now? Many, if not most of us when asked that question, would envision a skid row bum or someone at least out of work or with little education locked into a low-skill, low-paying job. But that is not accurate, according to the results of a national study released in June, 2007 by the National Institutes of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. The NIAAA determined that alcoholics in the United States really fall into five subtypes, including nearly 20 percent who are highly functional alcoholics, well-educated with good incomes. They include corporate presidents, powerful politicians, police, lawyers, doctors, scientists, and other highly-skilled, highly-educated people who are middle- to high-income and by most accounts successful. In this unprecedented book, mental health counselor Sarah Benton takes us into the worlds and minds of so-called high-functioning alcoholics, to understand how people so intelligent and achievement-oriented get drawn into states in which they secretly cannot control their liquor consumption but still manage to excel in their careers.
The book includes a look at celebrity alcoholics like singer Eric Clapton and actor/comedian Robin Williams, as well as alcoholics in high positions including Chris Albrecht, former Chairman and CEO of HBO. Other high-profile people included in this book are Miss USA 2007 Tara Conner and football legend Joe Namath. With her own story of alcoholism and her recovery woven into the text, Benton takes us into the lives and challenges of these well-educated and successful people, seeking to understand how, when, and why they became addicted, as well as the reasons their alcoholism is, for most, so hard to admit, cope with, and recover from.
