    Mexico, name of a "project" open to the future rather than a country or a state (Adolfo Castanon) -. The following text is the brief report of interviews on the "trans-cultural Mexicanity," which were held with Mexican writers, critics and researchers in August 2002 in Mexico City. This report will be integrated into the book (in preparation) on the theme of Trans-Culture, Surrealism and Primitive Art

    Is the recent increase in cervical cancer in women aged 20-24years in England a cause for concern?

    No full text
    The rates of cervical cancer (CxCa) in England among women aged 20-24yrs increased from 2.7 in 2012 to 4.6 per 100,000 in 2014 (p=0.0006). There was concern that the sudden increase was linked to the withdrawal of cervical screening in women aged 20-24 (a policy that affected women born since 1984). We analyse granular data on age and FIGO stage at diagnosis using a generalised linear model to see whether the unprecedented increase in CxCa in young women in 2014 was linked to the change in 2012 to the age at which the first invitation to screening was sent (from 25.0 to 24.5). Annual rates of CxCa per 100,000 women aged 20.0-24.5yrs decreased gradually over time, whereas at age 24.5-25.0yrs they increased from an average of 16 pre-2013 to 49 in 2015. An increase of 20.3 per 100,000 women aged 24.5-25.0yrs (95% CI: 15.2-25.4) was associated with inviting women for screening at age 24.5yrs instead of at age 25.0. At age 25.0-25.5yrs, rates decreased by 23.7 per 100,000 after women were invited at age 24.5yrs (p<0.001). All these changes were limited to stage I CxCa. There was a dramatic increase in diagnoses at age 25yrs in 2009-2011 associated with changing the age at first invitation from 20yrs to 25yrs. No changes were observed at age 26.0-27.0yrs. The increase in CxCa aged 20-24 is attributable to an increase in the proportion of women first screened aged 24.5yrs. The increase was limited to stage I CxCa. There is no evidence of a lack of screening leading to increasing rates.Cancer Research UK [grant number C8162/A16872

    "Estudio y edicion critica de ""Sangre, valor y fortuna"", de Francisco Bances Candamo"

    No full text
    Sangre, valor y fortuna is the only play by dramatist Francisco Bances Candamo (1662-1704) which has never been published. It was not included in the Poesias comicas, the most complete collection of comedias by Bances Candamo, nor was it published in the form of a suelta, as happened with other plays by the same author. The only extant source for this comedia is one single manuscript kept as the Biblioteca Nacional, in Madrid. Its handwriting is seventeenth century, yet is is not the playwright's own.In addition to providing an extensive introduction that gives a useful biographical profile of Bances Candamo, as well as the historical background, I explore some of the most noteworthy aspects of the play, I offer my own edition of the text of Sangre, valor y fortuna, which is the first modern attempt to edit the manuscript and correct the copist's errors, thus presenting the play as close as possible to Bances Candamo's original intentions. Completing the edition is the critical apparatus, consisting of thorough explanatory footnotes and a bibliography--the most extensive about Bances Candamo up to date.Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T14:17:26Z (GMT).

    Survival from Cervical Cancer Diagnosed Aged 20–29 Years by Age at First Invitation to Screening in England: Population-Based Study

    No full text
    Age at which women are first invited to attend cervical screening in England has changed twice: in 2004, women under 25 years were no longer invited; and in 2012, first invitations were sent six months earlier (at age 24.5 years). Concomitantly, a dramatic increase in screen-detected cervical cancer was observed, and their survival had not been documented. Diagnoses of invasive cervical cancer at ages 20&ndash;29 years in 2006&ndash;2016 in England were followed until the end of 2018 for deaths. We estimated 8-year overall survival (OS) by International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage and age at first screening invitation. Overall and relative survival for stage IA cervical cancer for women diagnosed aged 20&ndash;29 years in England (n = 1905) was excellent at 99.8% (95% confidence intervals (CI): 99.4&ndash;99.9%) and 100% (95% CI: 99.7&ndash;100.1%), respectively. OS for stage IB cervical cancer (n = 1101) was 90.4% (95% CI: 88.3&ndash;92.2%). Survival from stage IB was worse for women diagnosed age 20&ndash;24 years compared to those diagnosed 25&ndash;29 years at diagnosis (p &lt; 0.0001), but no difference was observed by age at first invitation for screening, p = 0.8575. OS for stage II (65.5%, 95% CI: 60.2&ndash;72.0%) and stage III+ (36.6%, 95% CI 28.4&ndash;44.7%) were poorer. Survival from stage I cervical cancer in young women in England is excellent: mortality in women with stage IA cancer is akin to that of the general population regardless of age at first invitation to screening
