Este trabajo evalúa el accionar político de Paul Levi, el heredero político de Rosa Luxemburg, quien condujo al Partido Comunista alemán (KPD) desde la muerte de Rosa Luxemburg y Karl Liebknecht, en enero de 1919, hasta poco antes del putsch conocido como la "acción de marzo" de 1921, dos años durante los cuales Levi consiguió transformar al KPD en un partido obrero revolucionario de 350.000 miembros. Intentaremos demostrar, mediante el análisis de documentos primarios en alemán e inglés, que la política de Frente Único fue adoptada por la Internacional Comunista a instancias del KPD, cuyo aporte al desarrollo de la táctica de la Internacional Comunista fue enfatizado por el propio Lenin. La comprensión de estos procesos es fundamental para entender la evolución de la revolución alemana, que se extendió desde noviembre de 1918 hasta octubre de 1923, y cuyo fracaso eventual fue la causa última de la degeneración estalinista de la revolución rusa y de la Internacional Comunista.Palabras clave: Paul Levi, Rosa Luxemburg, Partido Comunista de Alemania (KPD), Internacional Comunista (Comintern), Revolución alemana, Frente ÚnicoThis paper evaluates the political activity of Paul Levi, the political heir of Rosa Luxemburg, who led the German Communist Party (KPD) from the death of Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht in January 1919 until shortly before the putsch known as the "March Action" of 1921, two years during which Levi managed to transform the KPD into a revolutionary workers' party with 350,000 members. We will attempt to demonstrate, with the help of primary sources in German and English, that the United Front policy was adopted by the Communist International at the initiative of the KPD, whose contribution to the development of the tactics of the International Communist was emphasized by Lenin himself. An understanding of these processes is essential for the analysis of the German Revolution, which lasted from November 1918 to October 1923, and whose eventual failure was the ultimate cause of the Stalinist degeneration of the Russian revolution and the Communist International.Keywords: Paul Levi, Rosa Luxemburg, Communist Party of Germany (KPD), Communist International (Comintern), German Revolution, United Front

Background: National and international political commitments have been made recently on rheumatic heart disease (RHD), a preventable heart condition that is endemic in low-resource countries. To inform best practice and identify evidence gaps, we assessed the effectiveness of RHD prevention and control programmes and the extent and nature of their integration into local health systems.Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis using a previously published protocol that included electronic and manual searches for studies published between January 1990 and July 2019 reporting on prevention and control programmes for populations at risk for streptococcal pharyngitis, rheumatic fever, and/or RHD. We analysed programme integration according to a previously published framework and programme effectiveness using a results-chain framework. We meta-analysed secondary prophylaxis adherence using random-effects models. Study quality was assessed using peer-reviewed checklists (CASP and PRISM). PROSPERO registration: CRD42017076307.Findings: Five observational studies met with the inclusion criteria. Studies were similar in extent and nature of integration into health systems; no programme was completely integrated or non-integrated. A single study reported on programme impact. Secondary prophylaxis adherence improved among partially integrated RHD programmes (RR, 1.18 [95% CI, 1.03 to 1.36], 3 studies, n = 618). Risk of bias was low in two studies, and indeterminable in the remaining three studies.Interpretation: There is evidence that partially integrated RHD programmes are beneficial for a range of intermediate health outcomes. This review provides a starting point for the design and implementation of future RHD programmes by outlining current best practice for integration and identifying key gaps in knowledge.Funding: National Research Foundation of South Africa.

The second rheumatic heart disease (RHD) forum was held on February 18, 2013, at the Sixth World Congress of Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery in Cape Town, South Africa, to focus attention on key areas in global RHD control, management, and prevention. Building on the foundation of the first RHD forum, over 150 interested participants met to discuss critical issues on the RHD landscape. Unique to this meeting was a mixture of diverse backgrounds and disciplines, all crucially important to the conversation around RHD control and prevention. Some clear priorities have emerged for RHD activities in the next era: the necessity for political intervention and policy change; increasing the health workforce by incorporating teaching, training, and task-shifting; revitalizing the research agenda by merging basic, clinical, and translational research; and obtaining universal access to high-quality penicillin. There was also an urgent request for new resources; for existing resources to be further developed, improved, and shared across platforms; and for resources to be supported in the nonmedical arena. Finally, the necessity of involving the patient community in the ongoing discussion was highlighted. The participants of both the first and second RHD forum represent a new, thriving, and growing community of RHD activists who should usher in a new era of significant improvements in RHD control and prevention.
