English to Portuguese: Draft Basic Income Framework Law General field: Other Detailed field: Government / Politics
Source text - English INTRODUCTION
Although the debate on the possibility of States implementing a basic income is rather old, it has gained force over the last ten years, especially in countries where wealth distribution is inequitable and access to social protection systems is not appropriately ensured due to institutional/legal, economic, cultural/geographic (rurality) barriers and restrictions related to one's gender, ethnic group and age, just to mention the commonest ones.
Beyond all analyses made so far, it can said, in sum, that opposition to the basic income concept has only one factor in common, i.e. “the costs for states is so high that, in a nutshell, the idea is inapplicable.”
This notion has been the main argument used by opponents of the basic income concept, and while it has worked very well so far, there are possibilities now for rebuilding this concept without jeopardizing certain basic principles, such as those of universality and human rights.
These principles should make it possible to define mechanisms for building the path to ensuring a basic income, which cannot and should not be a standard and, therefore, we must ask ourselves: is there a basic income? Or are there basic incomes?
The existence of basic incomes should be accepted. Such acceptance, apart from enhancing the possibilities for implementing them, will also pave the way for setting new paradigms for their application, based on the different realities experienced by countries.
In light of these parameters, we believe that a basic income framework law will surely establish a legal precedent that can also be used to promote concrete initiatives in each country.
Translation - Portuguese INTRODUÇÃO
Apesar de muito antiga, a discussão sobre a possibilidade de os países implementarem uma renda básica ganhou força ao longo dos últimos dez anos, sobretudo em países em que a distribuição de renda é desigual e o acesso aos sistemas de proteção social não é adequado devido a barreiras institucionais/jurídicas, econômicas, cultural-geográficas (ruralidade) e restrições relativas a gênero, etnia e faixa etária, para citar apenas as mais comuns.
Além de todas as análises feitas até hoje, pode ser dito, em suma, que a oposição ao conceito de renda básica tem somente um fator em comum: “que os custos para os países são tão elevados que, em resumo, a ideia é inaplicável”.
Essa ideia tem sido o principal argumento utilizado pelos que se opõem ao conceito de renda básica e por mais que tenha funcionado muito bem até agora, há possibilidades atualmente de reconstrução desse conceito sem colocar em riso certos princípios fundamentais, como os da universalidade e dos direitos humanos.
Esses princípios devem possibilitar a definição de mecanismos para a construção de um caminho que garanta uma renda básica, que não pode nem deve ser padronizada e, portanto, devemos nos perguntar: existe uma renda básica? Ou existem rendas básicas?
A existência de rendas básicas deve ser aceita. Essa aceitação, além de melhorar as possibilidades para implementá-las, preparará o terreno para o estabelecimento de novos paradigmas para a sua aplicação, com base nas diferentes realidades dos países.
Considerando-se esses parâmetros, acreditamos que uma lei marco de renda básica certamente estabelecerá um precedente legal que também poderá ser usado para promover iniciativas concretas em cada país.
English to Portuguese: Tenofovir alafenamide monofumarate nonclinical toxicology General field: Medical Detailed field: Medical (general)
Source text - English Nonclinical Toxicology
Tenofovir alafenamide monofumarate (GS-7340-02) was evaluated in mice, rats, dogs, and monkeys for treatment periods up to 9 months and was negative in genetic toxicology studies.
In chronic studies in rats, bone (atrophy of metaphyseal cancellous bone) and kidneys (karyomegaly) were the primary target organs after 26 weeks of treatment. GS 7340 02 also appeared to increase biochemical markers of bone turnover and decrease serum 1,25 dihydroxy and 25 hydroxyvitamin D3 at doses of 25 mg/kg/day and above. In chronic studies in dogs after 9 months of treatment with GS 7340 02, the primary target organs were kidney and bone.
GS-7340-02 had no discernible ECG effect at the low dose of 2 mg/kg/day and slightly prolonged PR intervals at 6 and 18/12 mg/kg/day (started at 18 mg/kg/day, then reduced to 12 mg/kg/day at Weeks 7-8). Additionally, at Week 39, GS 7340 02 appeared to reversibly reduce heart rate with an associated mild QT prolongation. At Week 39, decreases in serum triiodothyronine (T3) were noted for animals receiving 18/12 mg/kg/day but was reversible at the 3 month recovery period. Minor hematological and biochemistry parameters changes were observed but remained within normal historical ranges with the following exceptions: aspartate aminotransferase {AST (~ 100% increase)} and total bilirubin (~ 40% increase). There were no clear treatment-related effects observed in monkeys following 28 days of treatment, including no changes in mitochondrial function.
Translation - Portuguese Toxicologia não clínica
Monofumarato de tenofovir alafenamida (GS-7340-02) foi avaliado em camundongos, ratos, cães e macacos em períodos de tratamento de até nove meses e teve resultado negativo em estudos de toxicologia genética.
Em estudos crônicos em ratos, os ossos (atrofia do osso esponjoso metafisário) e os rins (cariomegalia) foram os principais órgãos-alvo após 26 semanas de tratamento. GS-7340-02 aparentemente também aumentou os marcadores bioquímicos da remodelação óssea e diminuiu os níveis séricos de 1,25 di-hidroxivitamina D3 e 25 hidroxivitamina D3 em doses de 25 mg/kg/dia e superiores. Em estudos crônicos em cães, após nove meses de tratamento com GS-7340-02, os principais órgãos-alvo foram os rins e os ossos.
GS-7340-02 não apresentou um efeito discernível no ECG sob dose baixa de 2 mg/kg/dia, e apresentou intervalos PR ligeiramente prolongados de 6 e 18/12 mg/kg/dia (iniciado em 18 mg/kg/dia, depois reduzido para 12 mg/kg/dia nas Semanas 7-8). Além disso, na Semana 39, GS-7340-02 aparentemente reduziu de forma reversível a frequência cardíaca com um ligeiro prolongamento do intervalo QT relacionado. Na Semana 39, foram observadas diminuições na triiodotironina sérica (T3) em animais que receberam 18/12 mg/kg/dia, mas houve reversão no período de recuperação de três meses. Foram observadas pequenas alterações nos parâmetros hematológicos e bioquímicos, mas que permaneceram dentro das faixas históricas normais, com as seguintes exceções: aspartato aminotransferase {AST (~ 100% de aumento)} e bilirrubina total (~ 40% de aumento). Não foram observados efeitos claramente relacionados ao tratamento em macacos após 28 dias de tratamento, incluindo nenhuma alteração na função mitocondrial.
