The article discusses the participation of doctors in the Brazilian military dictatorship (1964-1985). It identifies the main ways in which these doctors contributed with their technical and scientific knowledge and their institutional positions to the repression of the regime's opponents. The authors argue that this collaboration was not casual but strategic, organized, and systematic in assisting interrogations and practices of physical and psychological torture, as well as in covering up human rights violations.

As a result of the formulaic way in which this requirement is assessed, citizenship can be denied on the basis of historical patterns of behaviour or offending from childhood.

Article Synopsis
- Tuberculosis is becoming more common in Latin America, partly because more people are going to prison, with the number almost quadrupling since 1990.
- A study looked at how this rise in incarceration has helped spread tuberculosis and found that it caused a lot more cases than expected.
- If countries reduce the number of people admitted to prison and the time they spend there, it could help lower tuberculosis cases by more than 10% by 2034.
