1. PROBLEMAS Y DESAFÍOS DE LA TRADUCCIÓN DE LAS LENGUAS INDÍGENAS: LOS CASOS TOBA Y MAKÁ DE LA REGIÓN DEL GRAN CHACO (ARGENTINA Y PARAGUAY)
Abstract This paper focuses on the problems of translation, understood as a cross-linguistic and intercultural activity that involves making decisions not only on the linguistic (structural) level, but also at the level of communicative and performative language. In order to cover these two levels, we have selected, on the one hand, two grammar categories in

2. AS MULHERES TAMBÉM LUTAM: UMA “POLÍTICA SEXUAL” A PARTIR DOS CORPOS DAS MULHERES QOM (TOBAS DO OESTE) ANTES NA CONVERSÃO SOCIORRELIGIOSA (CHACO CENTRO OCIDENTAL)
Resumo Neste artigo reconsidero as antigas "brigas de mulheres" das mulheres tobas do oeste (tobas-pilagá ou Nachilamole#ek) como uma forma de política sexual feminina e analiso-as no contexto do antigo sistema de sexo-gênero toba onde a matrilocalidade, a circulação de homens e a sexualidade transactiva seriam as principais características, segundo mi

3. The peri-urban interface and house infestation with Triatoma infestans in the Argentine Chaco: an underreported process?
Peri-urban infestations with triatomine bugs, their sources and their dynamics have rarely been investigated. Here, we corroborated the reported occurrence of Triatoma infestans in a peri-urban area and in neighbouring rural houses in Pampa del Indio, in the Argentine Chaco, and identified its putative sources using spatial analysis and demographic questionn

4. Is imidacloprid an effective alternative for controlling pyrethroid-resistant populations of Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) in the Gran Chaco ecoregion?
The prevention of Chagas disease is based primarily on the chemical control of Triatoma infestans (Klug) using pyrethroid insecticides. However, high resistance levels, correlated with control failures, have been detected in Argentina and Bolivia. A previous study at our laboratory found that imidacloprid could serve as an alternative to pyrethroid insectici

5. New structures for goat corrals to control peridomestic populations of Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) in the Gran Chaco of Argentina
Goat production is an important economic activity for rural communities in the Gran Chaco of Argentina. Goat corrals are important for the survival of peridomestic populations of Triatoma infestans. This study evaluated the impact of modifying the traditional structure of goat corrals on T. infestans populations and goat productivity in the region of Los Ll

6. The residual efficacy of a cypermethrin pour-on formulation applied on goats on the mortality and blood intake of Triatoma infestans
Triatoma infestans is the main vector of Trypanosoma cruzi, the aetiological agent of Chagas disease in the Gran Chaco region of South America. As a frequent blood meal source for triatomine bugs, domestic goats play a key role in the eco-epidemiology of Chagas disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mortality and blood intake of T. infestans fed

7. Doença de Chagas: O que é conhecido e o que deve ser melhorado: uma visão sistêmica
Neste trabalho, fazemos uma ampla revisão sobre o que sabemos e o que deve ser melhorado no conhecimento da doença de Chagas, não somente através da análise dos principais trabalhos publicados sobre os tópicos discutidos, mas em grande parte com base na experiência sobre o assunto, que adquirimos nos últimos 50 anos (1961-2011). Entre os assuntos abo

8. Exploring the association between Trypanosoma cruzi infection in rural communities and environmental changes in the southern Gran Chaco
The association between land use and land cover changes between 1979-2004 in a 2.26-million-hectare area south of the Gran Chaco region and Trypanosoma cruzi infection in rural communities was analysed. The extent of cultural land, open and closed forests and shrubland up to 3,000 m around rural communities in the north, northwest and west of the province of

9. Chagas disease: serological and electrocardiographic studies in Wichi and Creole communities of Misión Nueva Pompeya, Chaco, Argentina
Chagas disease, which is caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, affects nearly 16 million people in Latin America and causes 75-90 million people to be at risk of infection. The disease is urbanizing and globalizing due to frequent migrations. There are regions of high prevalence of infection, including the north-eastern provinces of Argentina and the entire phytogeog

10. Sustainability of vector control strategies in the Gran Chaco Region: current challenges and possible approaches
Sustainability has become a focal point of the international agenda. At the heart of its range of distribution in the Gran Chaco Region, the elimination of Triatoma infestans has failed, even in areas subject to intensive professional vector control efforts. Chagas disease control programs traditionally have been composed of two divorced entities: a vector c

11. Wild Triatoma infestans, a potential threat that needs to be monitored
The current persistence of Triatoma infestans, and therefore of Chagas disease transmission, in the Andean valleys of Bolivia and the Gran Chaco (precisely where wild populations of the vector are widespread), indicates a possible relationship between these two occurrences. This paper provides an overview of the current knowledge regarding wild T. infestans

12. Response of Triatoma infestans to pour-on cypermethrin applied to chickens under laboratory conditions
This article reports the effects of a pour-on formulation of cypermethrin (6% active ingredient) applied to chickens exposed to Triatoma infestans, the main vector of Chagas disease in rural houses of the Gran Chaco Region of South America. This study was designed as a completely random experiment with three experimental groups and five replicates. Third ins
