Patterns and trends in survival: Kazakhstan and post-communist countries confronted with low mortality populations

Mukhtarova, Zhanyl January 2011 (has links)
This research primarily addresses mortality patterns and trends by main causes of death in the post-communist countries of Central Asia, Central Europe and the Baltic region together with low mortality populations such as those of France, Spain and the USA. The aim of this study is to analyze the changes in the mortality levels and its structure by the main causes of death by sex and age, and confronted with low mortality populations between the period of 1985 and 2005, respectively. The first (and main) part of the work therefore focuses on cause-specific mortality levels and its relative structure by main causes of death in the selected countries. Moreover, the different patterns of excess male mortality were also observed. The second part is concentrated at the age-standardized mortality levels by main causes of death. The research identified several important issues encasing the field of mortality, especially in the cause-specific mortality situation in Central Asian republics.

Van kubermens tot kuborg: representasies van mens-masjienverhoudinge in die Afrikaanse poesie (1990-2012)

Botha, Tanja 02 1900 (has links)
In hierdie studie word die manifestasies en ontwikkelings van mens-masjien-verhoudinge in die Afrikaanse poësie vanaf 1990 tot 2012 ondersoek. Relevante uitgangspunte van die fenomenologie, posthumanisme en transhumanisme dien as teoretiese begronding om die gekompliseerde en gevarieerde aard van mens-masjien-verhoudinge in die Afrikaanse poësie te bestudeer. Die studie beoog om deur kwantitatiewe data-analise die manifestasie van tegnologiese terme en verwysings na tegnologiese objekte in Afrikaanse poësie vanaf 1990 tot 2012 te karteer. Hierbenewens word deeglike kwalitatiewe ondersoek gedoen na die verskillende representasies van mens-masjien-verhoudinge in geselekteerde Afrikaanse gedigte. Laastens word rolle en metaforiese betekenisse van digitale tegnologie in posthumane subjekte se belewing op drie tematiese vlakke ondersoek, naamlik liefde en seks, spiritualiteit en die dood. / In this study the different manifestations of human-machine relationships in Afrikaans poetry between 1990 and 2012 are investigated. Relevant viewpoints from the phenomenology, posthumanism and transhumanism form part of the theoretical framework in which the often complicated and varied nature of human-machine relationships are studied. It is the goal of this study to map the manifestations of technological terms and references to technological objects in Afrikaans poetry from 1990 to 2012, utilising quantitative data analysis. Furthermore, the in-depth qualitative analysis will investigate various representations of human-machine relationships in selected Afrikaans poems. The roles and metaphorical meanings of digital technology within the experiences of posthuman subjects are investigated on three thematic levels, namely love and sex, spirituality and death. / Afrikaans and Theory of Literature / M.

Perfil EpidemiolÃgico da Mortalidade Materna em Hospital TerciÃrio no Cearà - 2004 a 2008 / Epidemiological Profile of Maternal Mortality in a Tertiary Hospital in Ceara - 2004 to 2008

Everardo de Macedo Guanabara 18 January 2010 (has links)
CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de NÃvel Superior / Objetivo. Analisar os Ãbitos maternos no Hospital Geral CÃsar Cals no perÃodo 2004 a 2008 quanto aos aspectos sociodemogrÃficos, assistenciais e a opiniÃo do comità de morte materna, constituindo o perfil epidemiolÃgico e clÃnico desta populaÃÃo. Metodologia. Estudo transversal, de carÃter descritivo e analÃtico de 70 Instrumentos de NotificaÃÃo de Ãbito de Mulher em Idade FÃrtil e de InvestigaÃÃo Confidencial do Ãbito Materno. Foram comparados os Ãbitos ocorridos por causas diretas e indiretas e aqueles ocorridos em pacientes provenientes de Fortaleza com aqueles de outros municÃpios. Foram empregados os testes qui-quadradro de Pearson e de Yates, teste exato de Fisher e teste nÃoparamÃtrico de Mann-Whitney. Considerou-se p< 0,05 como significativo. Resultados. A idade variou de 15 a 43 anos (mÃdia de 27,0  7,4 anos). Vinte e cinco (35,71%) eram procedentes da prÃpria Capital Fortaleza, e 45 (64,29%) de outros municÃpios. A maioria era de cor parda, vivia com companheiro, primÃparas ou secundÃparas. A maioria frequentou o prÃ-natal: elas iniciaram o prÃ-natal ainda no primeiro trimestre, mas realizaram menos de seis consultas. A maioria teve o parto por via abdominal com recÃm-nascidos vivos. A RMM foi de 227,37/100.000 NV (causas diretas 129,37/100.000 NV e indiretas 74,48/100.000 NV). As RMM geral e especÃficas (diretas e indiretas) apresentaram linhas de tendÃncia crescente ao longo dos anos avaliados. O tempo de internamento foi menor para os Ãbitos de causas diretas (p = 0,008) e para pacientes provenientes de municÃpios diferentes de Fortaleza (p<0,002). O inÃcio do prÃ-natal no primeiro trimestre foi mais frequente para as pacientes de fora da Capital (p = 0,027). Quanto a assistÃncia prÃ-natal, ao parto ou aborto e ao puerpÃrio, foi possÃvel realizar somente anÃlise descritiva para as pacientes da cidade de Fortaleza, segundo opiniÃo do Comità de Ãtica. ConclusÃes. A RMM no HGCC foi muito alta, com tendÃncia crescente. O tempo de internamento foi maior para as pacientes que evoluÃram para Ãbito por causas indiretas e de Fortaleza. Segundo o ComitÃ, a assistÃncia foi considerada inadequada para as pacientes provenientes de Fortaleza.
