This study examines the Trump administration’s foreign policy as a complex strategy that intertwines political ambitions with commercial interests, resulting in global conflicts of interest. The authors employ a case study approach, policy analysis, and a review of existing literature to explore the impact of Trump’s new orientations on reconfiguring international geopolitics. The analysis focuses on global issues the] Transfer of Palestinians from Gaza Strip, Russian-Ukrainian War and the Precious Metals Deal, The Rupture in The Transatlantic Alliance, and the Trade War with China[. The findings indicate that Trump’s policies, rooted in the pursuit of "Make America Great Again" “MAGA” from a businessman’s perspective, are pushing the geopolitical landscape to move at a rapid pace; it is likely to damage the US relationships with its traditional allies while fostering closer cooperation between Moscow and Beijing in countering American dominance. This approach, driven predominantly by economic interests, poses a threat to international agreements and destabilizes the global order—a system that the US played a pivotal role in shaping in the aftermath of World War II and consolidating following the collapse of the Soviet Union.

In solid tumors, hypereosinophilia is a rare phenomenon and is mainly associated with mucin-secreting carcinomas. Thyroid tumors associated with neutrophilia and/or eosinophilia have been described exclusively in patients with anaplastic thyroid cancer. Eosinophilia associated with papillary thyroid cancer is extremely rare and there are very few cases currently described. It has been suggested that three cytokines, namely interleukin-3 (IL-3), interleukin-5 (IL-5), and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), may act as a peptide potential eosinophilic. To date, only three patients with differentiated thyroid cancer associated with eosinophilia have been reported, two of the papillary type and one of the medullary type. A 48-year-old patient consulted in 2022 due to bilateral cervical lymphadenopathy of 3 years' duration associated with wasting syndrome and hypereosinophilia. PET CT was requested, which showed hypermetabolic focus in the right thyroid lobe and lymph node, lung, bone, and liver metastases; Thyroid ultrasound showing a nodule of high suspicion of malignancy and a conglomerate of lymphadenopathy in the right lobe with positive needle wash for thyroglobulin. Hypereosinophilia was evaluated with initial leukocytosis values of GB 30,310/mm3 (10,608/mm3 of eosinophils) to maximum values of GB 77,090/mm3 (eosinophils 20,814/mm3). It was interpreted as paraneoplastic syndrome and corticosteroid therapy was started at immunosuppressive doses without response. Our observations presented in this article are in line with most studies reflecting that paraneoplastic hypereosinophilia is characterized by more advanced disease and poor prognosis.

When I was in my teens, I built a small radio transmitter from individual components. It was my first homebrew project, and I was anxious to see whether I could connect with someone far away from my home in St. Louis. After hours on the air desperately sending “CQ CQ CQ this is WAOAJX” in Morse code, I gave up. I had raised no one. Despite my broadcasts, nobody, it seemed, was aware of my work. I set the project aside. A few months later, I received a postcard from Mexico. Someone had picked up my signal, but I could not hear his response. Although I had succeeded in transmitting, the time frame and the mechanism of response were not what I had expected. Article see p 1755 What does this have to do with cardiovascular research? In this issue of Circulation , an article by Ranasinghe and coworkers looks at “poorly cited articles” in peer-reviewed cardiovascular journals.1 The authors’ premise is that articles that are infrequently cited are of limited impact and therefore “may reflect inefficiency and waste in the research enterprise.” Their key assumption is that impact can be measured by citations within the first 5 years from publication. If your work is important to others, they will cite it when they report their own work; this will happen within a few years of publication. This assumption may often be true, but is it also true that if no one rapidly cites your work, it is unimportant? By their statement about “inefficiency and waste in the research enterprise,” Ranasinghe et al seem to think so. But just as I had to wait to learn that my meager radio signal had reached a faraway place, recognition of the …

O presente artigo analisa a violência contra jovens mulheres da periferia de Salvador (Bahia), tomando como referência o caso de jovens que foram assassinadas por pertencer à rede de relacionamento de outros jovens, rapazes, inseridos em trajectórias de marginalidade. O estudo etnográfico realizado reconstitui, através de entrevistas e grupos focais, as trajectórias de desenvolvimento, as formas de violência perpetradas contra as jovens, dentre elas o homicídio, inclusive quando praticado no âmbito das relações afectivas. Por fim, apresentamos, numa espécie de continuum, a trajectória de marginalização das jovens, culminando com o óbito. Nas conclusões, questiona-se o relativo silêncio das instituições sociais, inclusive no âmbito da universidade, face à recorrência desses homicídios.
