Epistemic Disobedience
Authors: Kolb-Neuhaus Roberto 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Revueltas’ return from the United States after a formative period of over a decade led to dramatic changes. He decided to abandon his career as a violinist to assume himself now above all as a composer. This decision implied taking a stance regarding the various aesthetics predominant in Mexico at the time, on the one hand, a Eurocentric nationalism, an expression of internal colonialism, and on the other, his friend and boss Carlos Chávez’s varied attempts to counter this perspective. Two early compositions seem to sound a dialogue with this aesthetic environment. One of them, satirically named Tres pequeñas piezas serias, abandoned in the process of composition and therefore undated, appears to have been crafted at the time. It was published as “Two Little Serious Pieces.” Through the names of the three proposed movements, it appears to poke fun at his romantic peers at the National Conservatory, as well as, perhaps, both Chávez’s early primitivist works and his early modernist works. Futuristic modernism was far from Revueltas’ mind, considering the composition of a quasi-surrealist song, the “Duo for Duck and Canary” (Dúo para pato y canario), 1932, which transfers the intended irrationality of Carlos Barrera’s atypical poem to music. These are the first compositions that introduce a disruptive or incoherent collage as an expression of satire.
The Art of the Streets
Authors: Kolb-Neuhaus Roberto 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Esquinas is one of Revueltas’ least performed works, possibly because it lacks a fundamental element required by programmers worldwide: the presumed representation of Mexicanness, the exotic component, Southern or localistic. Not a single reference to local folklore or ethnic music is contained here. “Street corners” is, however, fundamental for the understanding of Revueltas’ musical embodiment of his political passion. Best defined as poetic prose, he wrote two significant texts to accompany this music. In them, Revueltas describes who is represented there: no less, the voice of his main music-semantic subject, the downtrodden roaming the streets, expressed through vendor’s cries, funny or insulting whistlings, or the occasional pan flute of a knife sharpener. The study of Esquinas reveals the sophisticated musical abstraction of such street voices, used to sound not only the street’s actors but also their (musicalized) time and space. Revueltas will, from then on, use these music-semantic symbols to leave an imprint of a political message on further compositions. Esquinas thus becomes a fundamental premise for the understanding of his early works (1930–1936), in which this message is not embodied by resorting to words and images.
Magueyes (1931) and Música de feria (1932)
Authors: Kolb-Neuhaus Roberto 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Revueltas wrote four string quartets during his short life as a professional composer, curiously all at the outset of his career (1931–1933). Two of them lack referents to local popular music genres, seemingly contesting Eurocentric precepts of organicity through a free, apparently intentional “disobedient” disaggregating accumulation of isolated musical gestures, perhaps responding to a decolonial agenda. The better-known quartets, ironically titled Magueyes and Música de feria, contain satires of a then expected folkloric nationalism, but also an affirmative proposition, defining the political as part of the sensory realm and sounding it through musical abstractions of street-vendor cries, Revueltas’ chosen symbol of his social subject. Rhetorical figures derived from verbal language help to decode satirical intent. Rancière’s philosophical avowal of the sensible invites a reading of political expression in non-figurative art such as music.
Composing for the People
Authors: Kolb-Neuhaus Roberto 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Revueltas’ early works (1930–1936) embody rebellious and humorful avant-garde aesthetics targeting elitist Eurocentrism. Revueltas’ joining the League of Revolutionary Writers and Artists in 1935 and soon after his participation as a member of the delegation visiting Spain in support of the Republic in its fight against Franco’s fascist attack, however, changed the composer’s priorities. He now sought a more overt expression of his socialist beliefs, for instance, composing symphonic poems akin to socialist realism. One example of such program music was derived from a film score included in an ambitious educational film project, initially launched by Carlos Chávez in collaboration with Paul Strand. Most of the film responds to silent film aesthetics, in which content is communicated through visual action and music alone. Music here plays a signifying role of equal relevance to photography. This explains its conception, not as diegetic music supporting the action, but an autonomous discourse and—possibly—the editing of certain parts of the film following the score. From the outset, Revueltas conceived large sections of the score simultaneously as concert music, the path leading to his “symphonic suite,” identified during the present research. Revueltas treasured this score deeply, premiering it in Mexico even before the film’s first showing and conducting it also in Spain during the civil war. This chapter explores the complex history of the film’s making, but above all, the film’s intermedial aesthetics and Revueltas’ strategies for the symbolic embodiment of political intent.
Spain in the Heart
Authors: Kolb-Neuhaus Roberto 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
The war against fascism in Spain played a significant role in Revueltas’ life. It represented a prospect of social change that he did not find at home and, therefore, also a strong source of artistic inspiration. Strikingly, most of the works composed in 1936 and thereafter are directly or indirectly linked to this historic event. The best-known testimony of his emotional link to the Republican cause emerged in the form of an homage to Federico García Lorca, murdered that year by Franco’s followers. It coincided with the composition of three battle songs, inviting people to stand up against the impending fascism. The composer was sent to Spain in 1937 as part of a delegation of the League of Revolutionary Writers and Artists, sponsored by the Mexican government, which backed the Republicans at the time along with the Soviet Union. While there, he conducted many of his works in cultural gatherings organized by the Republic. He also composed a controversial battle song in honor of the anonymous Mexicans who volunteered to fight Franco’s forces. Upon his return to Mexico, he visited the “Niños de Morelia,” hundreds of children of Republican fighters who had been sent to safety there at the beginning of the war. This encounter led to a song cycle inspired by them and an arrangement of a popular Republican battle song, as well as a symphonic poem, Itinerario, symbolizing uprising and struggle but seemingly also the pain caused by loss of life and hope that he experienced while there.
Aberrant Reception Today (and Tomorrow?)
Authors: Kolb-Neuhaus Roberto 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Programming of Latin American music by symphony orchestras in Europe and the United States has tended to be selective, giving preference to works in which some expression of Southern difference is perceptible. This tendency accounts for the predominant inclusion of works such as Sinfonía India in the case of Chávez, and Sensemayá, misinterpreted as exotic jungle music. Understandably, it has led Latin American conductors to include such works in their programs when they are invited to perform in the Northern cities. One case of the use of exoticism for purposes of self-promotion responding to Northern hunger for the exotic, however, led a certain conductor to the extreme of twisting Revueltas’ life history and inventing a symphonic suite drawn from loose film music scenes that the latter had composed for a commercial nationalist film. Indeed folkloristic and primitivistic, such scenes responded to his producers’ expectations and were composed as a means of sustenance at a time when he only held a poorly paid job at the Conservatory and needed additional income. Not only is this music not representative of his aesthetics: it pointedly defines what he fought against as a composer. Due to its lure of Southern difference, though, “La noche de los Mayas,” arranged and partially composed by José Yves Limantour and falsely presented by him as Revueltas’ ultimate work, was and still is often programmed. It tells the story of a tendency still prevailing, a postcolonial perspective that defines Revueltas’ perception as a Mexicanist to this day.
Early Encounters with Urdu Literature
Authors: Molteno Marion 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Extracts from Russell’s autobiography, Part II (Losses, Gains): describes studying Urdu at the School of Oriental & African Literature in London. Being already fluent he was shocked to discover how difficult he found the literature, which used a vastly bigger vocabulary and drew on Persian literary genres unfamiliar to him. He describes the differing styles of teaching of his teachers: Harley, Bilgrami, and Judd, and his debt to each; the absence of appropriate learning tools like dictionaries and course books; his response to particular writers: Nazir Ahmad, Sarshar, Azad, Hali, and the challenges of understanding the ghazal form. He then spent a year in South Asia studying in mostly Aligarh, hosted by Zakir Husain, the Vice Chancellor, and learning from mother-tongue Urdu speakers, most significantly Khurshidul Islam. He got to know writers of the Progressive Writers Movement in several cities, including Lahore with Faiz.
Rusva and Premchand: Stories of Courtesans
Authors: Molteno Marion 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Russell describes the impact made on him by two writers he admires, Rusva and Premchand. Rusva described his novels as ‘a history of our times’ and in Umrao Jan Ada he gave a vivid portrait of the world of a courtesan in mid-19th C Lucknow. Umrao Jan tells Rusva her life story—how she was kidnapped as a child and sold into a brothel, where she was given the education an accomplished courtesan required, and came to accept her role. Premchand’s Bazar e Husn portrays the complex reactions of men and women in respectable society towards Saman, who was thrown out by her husband, and when threatened with destitution, was taken in by a courtesan and trained as a singer. Russell traces Premchand’s maturing as a writer through other stories, Masum Bacca, Nai Bivi, the novel Gadodan, and his last story, Kafan.
Leadership in the Progressive Writers’ Movement, 1935–1947
Authors: Molteno Marion 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
A study of organizational issues among Urdu writers in the Progressive Writers’ Association from 1935 to 1947, based on Russell’s contacts with writers and key written sources. The movement aimed to harness literature to social and political aims, bringing it closer to the concerns of ordinary people. Russell describes the political climate of the time, the anti-imperialist struggles, and the sympathy towards communists and others committed to an egalitarian social agenda. He points out contradictions in the attitudes of early leaders such as Sajjad Zahir; their unconscious attitudes as members of the educated elite, often from the landlord class. The organization sought to win support from established writers such as Premchand, and attracted many Urdu poets and short story writers. Though organizationally they were not equipped to achieve their original ambitious aims, they achieved considerable success in producing a new kind of literature that appealed to a much wider audience.
Jammed Keplerian gas leads to the formation and disappearance of spiral arms in a coupled map lattice for astronomical objects
Authors: Nozawa Erika 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
The formation and disappearance of spiral arms are studied by focusing on jammed Keplerian gas in a coupled map lattice (CML) with a minimal set of procedures for simulating diverse patterns in astronomical objects. The CML shows that a spiral arm is a type of traffic jam, and its motion is governed by both a gas inflow into and outflow from the jam. In particular, we present a new approach to simply and directly evaluating the disappearance of spiral arms, called “light-in and heavy-out”. It is based on the gas flow rate difference between the light inflow and heavy outflow leading to the disappearance of traffic jams. Furthermore, we propose an approximate formula for the remaining lifetime of spiral arms, which is immediately derived from the “light-in and heavy-out” approach without calculating their pattern speeds as in conventional differential rotation. The proposed formula is successfully applied to the CML simulations.

AbstractThe relationship of obesity and osteoporosis has been widely studied over the past years. However, the implications of obesity for bone health remain controversial, and the underlying molecular mechanism is not yet fully understood. This study demonstrated that high‐fat diet‐induced obesity leads to significantly decreased bone volume/tissue volume (BV/TV), trabecular number (Tb.N), and cortical thickness (Ct.Th) of male rat femur after mechanical loading effects of body weight were controlled. HFD‐induced obese rats exhibited attenuated expression of ferroptosis inhibitory protein SLC7A11 and GPX4 in bone tissues, which was correlated with elevated serum TNF‐α concentration. Ferroptosis inhibitor administration could effectively rescue decreased osteogenesis‐associated type H vessels and osteoprogenitors, and downregulate serum levels of TNF‐α to ameliorate bone loss in obese rats. Since ferroptosis and TNF‐α both affect bone and vessel formation, we further investigated the interaction between ferroptosis and TNF‐α, and its impact in osteogenesis and angiogenesis in vitro. In human osteoblast‐like MG63 and umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), TNF‐α/TNFR2 signaling promoted cystine uptake and GSH biosynthesis to provide protection against low‐dose ferroptosis inducer erastin. While, TNF‐α/TNFR1 facilitated ferroptosis in the presence of high‐dose erastin through ROS accumulation. Moreover, TNF‐α regulated ferroptosis‐induced osteogenic and angiogenic dysfunctions based on its ferroptosis regulatory role. Meanwhile, ferroptosis inhibitors could reduce intracellular ROS overproduction and enhance osteogenesis and angiogenesis in TNF‐α‐treated MG63 and HUVECs. This study revealed the interaction between ferroptosis and TNF‐α and its impact in osteogenesis and angiogenesis, which provides new insights into the pathogenesis and regenerative therapy of obesity‐related osteoporosis.
Bleeding Patterns With Relugolix Combination Therapy in Women With Endometriosis-Associated Pain [ID: 1345374]
Authors: As-Sanie Sawsan , Giudice Linda , Imm So Jung , Johnson Neil , Mehedintu Claudia , Perry Julie 
Published: May 2023

INTRODUCTION:
Relugolix combination therapy (Relugolix-CT: relugolix 40 mg, estradiol 1 mg, norethindrone acetate 0.5 mg) significantly improved endometriosis-associated pain versus placebo in the SPIRIT 1&2 studies. Efficacy was maintained over 104 weeks in the long-term extension (LTE) study. Bleeding patterns in women treated up to 104 weeks with Relugolix-CT are reported.

METHODS:
SPIRIT 1&2 were IRB-approved phase 3, 24-week, randomized studies of Relugolix-CT, delayed Relugolix-CT (relugolix 40 mg monotherapy followed by Relugolix-CT; 12 weeks each), or placebo in premenopausal women (age 18–50 years) with moderate-to-severe endometriosis-associated pain. Eligible women completing SPIRIT 1&2 could enroll in the open-label LTE with once-daily Relugolix-CT. Bleeding days per cycle and bleeding patterns were recorded on eDiaries. Amenorrhea was defined as no bleeding over 28 consecutive days.

RESULTS:
Of 1,261 women originally randomized, 501 completed week 104. Baseline demographics and characteristics were balanced across treatment groups. The proportion of women achieving amenorrhea increased over time: 74.4% (95% CI 68.8–79.4) at week 24, and 82.3% (95% CI 74.6–88.4) at week 104. The average number of bleeding days per cycle (standard deviation) decreased over time from 5.8 (2.4) at baseline to 1.2 (3.3) at week 104. The number of heavy or extremely heavy bleeding days decreased from 1.9 at baseline to 0.0 at week 104.

CONCLUSION:
Treatment with Relugolix-CT in women with endometriosis-associated pain resulted in high rates of amenorrhea and complete elimination of heavy bleeding, thus demonstrating sustained benefit through 2 years. Findings may support patient counseling.
Mesh Exposure After Midurethral Sling Procedures Confers a High Risk of Persistent Stress Urinary Incontinence [ID: 1373885]
Authors: Baracy Michael , Aslam Muhammad , Hagglund Karen , Kulkarni Sanjana , Shim Catherine 
Published: May 2023

INTRODUCTION:
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) affects between 4% and 35% of adult women. Midurethral slings (MUSs) are the gold standard for the treatment of SUI. Mesh exposure has been reported in 4.7–16.4% of patients who undergo MUS. It is unclear whether mesh exposure portends an increased risk of persistent SUI. The purpose of this study was to determine whether mesh exposure is associated with MUS failure/persistent SUI.

METHODS:
This was a retrospective cohort study from December 1, 2015 to January 1, 2022, of all patients who had a MUS procedure at a large community hospital. The primary outcome was persistent SUI at the 12-week postoperative appointment after MUS in patients with and without mesh exposure.

RESULTS:
A total of 456 patients underwent MUS procedure. The incidence of persistent SUI and mesh exposure was 6.4% and 8.8%, respectively. Twenty-five percent of patients with mesh exposure experienced persistent SUI, compared with 4.6% of patients without mesh exposure (P<.0001). In univariable analysis, mesh exposure and postmenopausal status were associated with persistent SUI while asthma was associated with mesh exposure. In logistic regression, persistent SUI was 6.5 times higher in patients with MUS mesh exposure compared to those without mesh exposure (adjusted odds ratio 6.46, 95% CI 2.71–15.44).

CONCLUSION:
Mesh exposure is an independent risk factor for persistent SUI. Patients with mesh exposure are approximately seven times more likely to experience persistent SUI compared to patients without mesh exposure. Currently, there is insufficient evidence to recommend surgical revision of MUSs complicated by mesh exposure, and further studies are warranted.
Integrating Lawyers into the Perinatal Health Care Team: Initial Findings From an Innovative Medical–Legal Partnership [ID: 1377957]
Authors: Richardson Roxana , Kessler Lisa , Patchen Loral , Perry Deborah , Jensen Caitlin Schille , Thomas Angela 
Published: May 2023

INTRODUCTION:
Health-harming legal needs (HHLNs), social determinants of health that have a legal remedy, are drivers of poor health outcomes for Black women and children. HHLNs include inadequate access to safe housing, employment accommodations, and income supports. A medical–legal partnership (MLP) adds an attorney to the health care team to address patients’ HHLNs in a variety of health care settings. The Perinatal LAW Project (P-LAW), an MLP between the Georgetown University Health Justice Alliance and MedStar Washington Hospital Center Women’s & Infants’ Services, addresses perinatal patients’ HHLNs in an obstetrics and gynecology practice.

METHODS:
Perinatal LAW Project attorneys record client and case data in a legal case management system. The research team analyzed data for the first 18 months of the program (March 2021 to September 2022).

RESULTS:
One hundred thirty-one patients were referred for legal assistance, primarily by social workers and health navigators. Most patients were in their second and third trimesters. The majority of patients were Black or African American, aged 20–34, and lived under 200% FPL. The most common legal issues were in the areas of employment (parental leave, discrimination), housing (conditions, eviction), public benefits (food stamps, disability benefits), and family law (child support, domestic violence). The P-LAW addressed 150 legal issues and served 117 patients.

CONCLUSION:
Medical–legal partnership is a novel approach to addressing maternal health disparities. In our experience, legal services have a high utilization rate and patients often have more than one legal need. Future efforts to measure patient outcomes, including reduced maternal stress and medical appointment attendance, will build the evidence base for MLP in the perinatal context.

Published: May 2023

INTRODUCTION:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2020 Hear Her Campaign educates pregnant women, their support networks, and providers about urgent maternal warning signs, and empowers women to speak up; however, the effectiveness of this campaign is unknown. In 2021, our institution displayed and distributed campaign materials and formally coached patients. We performed a retrospective cohort study to assess the effects of this initiative on prenatal visits and postpartum office and emergency room visits and patient–provider communications in an urban, academic medical center.

METHODS:
A 3-month period before and after promotion of the Hear Her campaign was studied. Patients who delivered July 1, 2021, to September 30, 2021, were the study group, and patients who delivered July 1, 2019, to September 30, 2019, were the control group. Demographic data, number of prenatal visits, postpartum office and emergency room visits, and patient–provider communications were compared. Mann-Whitney, χ2, and Fisher's exact tests were used for analysis. This study was IRB approved.

RESULTS:
The study group had 346 patients, and the control, 369. Maternal demographics were similar. Median number of prenatal visits, postpartum follow-up rates, and median number of patients presenting to the emergency department postpartum were similar between the study and control groups, 7 versus 8, 68.2% versus 69.6%, and 57 (16.5%) versus 50 (13.6%), respectively. Patient–provider communications significantly increased, with 11.6% of patients communicating from 1.6% (P<.0001).

CONCLUSION:
Promotion of the Hear Her Campaign in this inner-city cohort correlated with an increase in maternal interaction with the health care system via patient–provider communication without increasing the use of emergency department services. More studies are needed to evaluate the effect on maternal health outcomes.
