“…Cinco artigos abordaram a pós-verdade a partir do debate em torno da democracia e alguns de seus aspectos: knowledge democracy (HOFFMAN, 2018), algorithmic democracy (RUAS, et al, 2017) e liberal democracy (SPEED, et al, 2017). Estes aspectos são analisados pelos autores em temas que dialogam direta ou indiretamente com o campo da ciência política, em especial com o tema do populismo e, também, com a demagogia política, a legitimidade dos regimes democráticos e a retórica política da pós-verdade.…”

Esse artigo objetiva realizar levantamento e análise das publicações científicas nacionais e internacionais sobre a pós-verdade. A revisão sistemática resultou numa amostra de 145 publicações que foram categorizadas em seis campos do conhecimento. A análise permitiu compreender que o tema começou a se desenvolver em 2016 – no contexto das eleições norte-americanas e do referendo da União Europeia no Reino Unido – e desde então se estendeu e ramificou. Para fundamentar teoricamente utilizamos discussão filosófica de Alain Badiou acerca da verdade. Em nosso entendimento a pós-verdade opera de forma sistemática através de estratégias de recobrimento e falseamento da realidade. Ao proceder dessa forma, evidencia-se como mais uma manifestação de agonia do capitalismo, que erode as bases instituídas da democracia liberal, as suas instituições e ideologia, afrontando a ciência normal e a opinião pública dominante, em favorecimento dos interesses do próprio capital.

“…Moreover politicians, who now need to be present in more media spaces than ever before, and thus have less time to focus on their political agenda, might also feel more anxious. Rúas and Capdevila (2017) believe that political communication strives to achieve the necessary legitimacy of the media and citizenry. Likewise, citizens seek authentic signals that will lead them to trust political establishment.…”

“…Another important feature of this time is the appearance of big data and algorithmic culture (Rúas, Capdevila, 2017), connected with control mechanisms, the absence of transparency, discrimination and exclusion ( van Dijck, Poell, 2013). Many automated accounts are present on social media for the purpose of adding emotions to the trending topic of feelings (ibid.…”

The research behind this paper is set in the context of the 2016 US presidential election that has come to symbolize the post-truth era. We conducted a literature review on the 2016 election, with the aim to better understand the impact of computational propaganda on the election outcome and on the behaviour of voters. The paper opens with a definition of post-truth society and related concepts such as fake news and computational propaganda. It explores the changes of political communication in a digital environment and analyses the role of social media in the 2016 election. It probes into phenomena such as the trivialization of politics and the loss of credibility of political actors, which are both common in post-truth societies. The reviewed literature seems to indicate that social media have become strong actors on the political stage, but so far not the predominant source of political information and influence on the behaviour of voters. The paper makes two important contributions. Firstly, drawing on the concept of post-truth society, it analyses the role of computational propaganda in the 2016 presidential election, and secondly, it attempts to explain the paradox of general political apathy on one hand, and increased political activism on the other. These are some of the challenges we are now facing, and in order to be able to cope with them it is important to acknowledge and understand them.

“…Patients with FMS have decreased levels of glutathione (GSH) and increased lipoperoxidation in blood and plasma, which seems to be associated with a worsening of patients' clinical condition [5]. The pathology of fibromyalgia (FM) causes a negative regulation of catalase activity in patients' erythrocytes and leukocytes [6,7]. Research has also described the effects of antioxidant redox systems, levels of protein carbonylation and lipoperoxidation on the pathogenesis of FMS, and increased oxidative stress is strongly associated with the FMS severity [5].…”

Background: Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is an extra-articular rheumatologic disease with an estimated prevalence of 2-4%, whose etiology and pathogenesis are still unknown. Oxidative stress is an imbalance between products of oxidation and antioxidant defenses and plays a critical role in the etiopathogenesis of FMS. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic with rapid onset of action, safety profile, low cost and wide availability that can reduce nerve signal conduction and consequently attenuate pain. Intravenous repetitive injections have been used to manage chronic pain.Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effects of repetitive intravenous lidocaine injections associated with pregabalin on oxidative and antioxidant parameters in women with FMS.Methods: Oxidative stress was determined by measuring the levels of GSH, lipoperoxidation, catalase, and superoxide dismutase in the blood of 48 female patients with FMS who were treated with lidocaine or saline. The FIQ and VAS valued clinical parameters of FMS as instruments of valuation of pain.Results: Regarding the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) scores, patients treated with lidocaine/pregabalin (GPL) revealed improvements in the parameter analyzed compared to the initial and final treatment time. Moreover, lidocaine administration significantly increased GSH levels (p<0.001) and non-enzymatic capacity (FRAP, p<0.01) in blood and plasma and decreased lipoperoxidation in blood cells without altering sulfhydryl groups comparing the first and second times of treatment. Conclusion:Lidocaine plus pregabalin significantly stimulated antioxidant defenses and reduced oxidative stress.antioxidant defenses and has recently been associated with several
