This research aimed to find out the relationship between informality and the internalization of the rules of behavior required for complexity in the economic system, as better knowledge is required for formalization policy to have a greater impact. We use the economic complexity index (ECI) for 2018 at the regional level in Colombia, which combines the country's productive structure with the amount of knowledge and know-how embodied in the goods it produces. The informality measure we use is the individual's affiliation to social security (in particular health insurance), and we use a proxy of civic rule's internalization as an inverse relation with traffic tickets.

Methods: A controlled clinical trial was conducted to evaluate 8% pirfenidone (PFD) gel administered topically 3 times a day during 6 months to 33 pediatric patients with hypertrophic scars caused by burns. A total of 30 patients with hypertrophic scars with identical Vancouver Scar Scale values were treated with pressure therapy and included as controls.
Background/aim: The aim of this work was to establish a potential correlation between specific polymorphisms and presence of hepatic fibrosis in Mexican patients with established liver fibrosis (ELF). Second, necroinflammatory index improvement was correlated with Pirfenidone (PFD) treatment response and the same polymorphisms.
Methods: We analyzed TGF-beta polymorphisms in codon 25, a single basepair guanine insertion-deletion polymorphism (4G/5G) for PAI-1 and angiotensin AT-6 single nucleotide polymorphism located in -6 promoter region.
