Health data, increasingly accessible and transparent, are attractive preys for the creation of value in the digital market. The concept of personal and anonymous data has by now disappeared in a sort of "far web" of filing and obsessive profiling, out of control, in which the violation of privacy seems systematic. The protection of confidentiality requires above all a cultural response, capable of aligning the current contexts, produced by the ever more advanced computational intelligences, with the recovery and promotion of people's rights.

Magnetic resonance imaging evaluation of the cerebellar tonsil position before and after posterior spinal fusion in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
Spine Deform
January 2025
Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires, Instituto de Ortopedia y Traumatología "Carlos E. Ottolenghi", Buenos Aires, C1199ABB, Argentina.
Article Synopsis
- Chiari malformation type I (CM-I) is common in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and its necessity for decompression surgery in asymptomatic patients is unclear.
- A study involving 40 AIS patients evaluated changes in cerebellar tonsil position using MRIs before and after posterior spinal fusion (PSF).
- Results showed significant spinal curve corrections after PSF, but no notable change in cerebellar tonsil position was detected post-surgery, indicating that CM-I decompression may not be necessary for asymptomatic AIS patients.
Why Has a Progressive Court Failed to Protect the Prison Population against COVID-19? Mass Incarceration and Brazil's Supreme Court.

PhD candidate at Fundação Getulio Vargas Law School, São Paulo, Brazil.
Despite acknowledging the risks of the COVID-19 pandemic for the prison population, Brazil's Supreme Court declined to issue structural injunctions during the health crisis ordering lower courts to consider these risks when making incarceration-related decisions. These injunctions could have been crucial to mitigate mass incarceration and protect the prison population during the pandemic. Through an examination of the Supreme Court's rulings in structural cases and in a sample of over 4,000 habeas corpus decisions, this paper argues that granting these injunctions would have overwhelmed the court with an unmanageable influx of individual claims.

The use of Latin in identifying an organism's genus and species is likely familiar to scientists and zoological professionals, but a traditional legal doctrine, known as habeas corpus (meaning "you have the body") may not have obvious applicability to nonhumans in the animal kingdom. In recent years, animal rights organizations have utilized the habeas corpus doctrine as a basis to bring legal challenges on behalf of nonhuman animals to expand "legal personhood" to them. These lawsuits, which have focused on species such as nonhuman primates and elephants, seek to challenge the "confinement" of animals in zoological institutions and by private owners, much like a prisoner or other detainee.

This paper will ask whether the legal status presently afforded to nonhuman animals ought to influence regulatory debates concerning human cerebral organoids. The New York Courts recently refused to grant a writ of habeas corpus to Happy the Elephant as she was property rather than a legal person while at the same time accepting that she is a moral patient deserving of rights protection. An undesirable situation has therefore arisen in which the law holds a being with moral status to be incapable of benefitting from legal redress due to their legal status as property.
