O Diabetes Mellitus foi analisado segundo a técnica de causas múltiplas de morte através das declaraçöes de óbitos de residentes do município de Niterói (RJ), referentes ao ano de 1993. Esta abordagem da mortalidade objetivou demonstrar que o Diabetes Mellitus é subestimado enquanto afecçäo que participa do processo que culmina com o óbito. A razäo de mençäo de causa básica (RMCB) estimada para o município de Niterói (RJ) foi 2,21 em 1993. O Diabetes Mellitus como causa múltipla de morte havia sido mais freqüentemente citado em declaraçöes de óbito femininas, e sua mençäo aumentava conforme o incremento nas faixas etárias analisadas, para ambos os gêneros. As principais afecçöes descritas nos atestados médicos de óbito de diabéticos foram as doenças do aparelho circulatório. Nas declaraçöes de óbito codificadas com o Diabetes Mellitus como causa básica as doenças cerebrovasculares foram as mais freqüentes afecçöes coexistentes; e para as declaraçöes de óbito que mencionavam o Diabetes Mellitus como causa associada as principais causas básicas de morte descritas foram as doenças cardíacas. / In order to contribute with epidemiological indicators that can evaluate the importance of the Diabetes mellitus, one of the main public health problems of the world nowadays, a study was carried out based on death certificate informations. The Diabetes mellitus mortality was estabilished by the analisys of the multiple causes of death based on informations of death certificates of residents of Niterói (RJ) city in 1993. This aspect of the analysis was carried out in order to demonstrate that the disease is often underreported as an afecction that contributes to death processes, when studied only as underlying cause of death. The “ratio of reported to underlying cause” for Niterói (RJ) city was 2,21 in 1993. The mention of Diabetes mellitus as multiple cause of death was frequently observed among death certificates of women and increased with age. Such pattern described in others studies were also observed in Niterói (RJ) city in 1993. Many studies of Diabetes mellitus as multiple causes of death demonstrate that the main afecctions mentioned in death certificates of diabetic persons are cardiovascular diseases, mainly cardiac diseases. For Niterói (RJ) city in 1993 the main afecctions mentioned in death certificates of diabetic were cardiovascular diseases. In death certificates which had Diabetes mellitus as underlying cause, cerebrovascular diseases were the most frequent among coexistent afecctions; in death certificates with Diabetes mellitus as an associated cause, the principal underlying causes of death were cardiac diseases.

[pt] O advento do mundo contemporâneo trouxe uma série de questões novas à teologia moral, entre as quais se encontra o problema sobre a definição do que seja pecado mortal. As inúmeras críticas realizadas pelos teólogos revisionistas a moral dos manuais, a necessidade de criar uma moral cristã autônoma e a solicitação conciliar de uma reforma nos estudos de teologia moral nos seminários tiveram como resposta a definição de pecado mortal a partir da doutrina da opção fundamental. Porém, a promulgação da Veritatis Splendor manifestou que as intruções dos pastores da Igreja iam de encontro ao pensamento dos teólogos. Na intenção de contribuir para a solução dessa diferença entre teologia e pastoral, acredita-se que o conceito de pecado mortal de Tomás de Aquino seja o mais adequado para dissolver a disputa. Em virtude da sua dependência literária ao pensamento de Aristóteles, pretende-se destacar o caráter patrístico da obra do Aquinate para que a contribuição proposta não seja helênica, mas sim cristã. / [en] The advent of the contemporary world has brought a series of new questions to moral theology, among where is the problem of defining what a mortal sin is. The many criticisms made by the revisionist theologians to the moral of the manuals, to the need to create an autonomous Christian morality, and to the conciliar solicitude of a reform in the studies of moral theology in the seminaries, were answered by the definition of mortal sin from the doctrine of the fundamental option. However, the promulgation of Veritatis Splendor stated that the instructions of the pastors of the Church were contrary to the thinking of theologians. In order to contribute to the solution of this difference between theology and pastoral, it s believed that the concept of mortal sin of Thomas Aquinas is the most adequate to dissolve the dispute. By the virtue of it s literary dependence on Aristotle s thought, it is intended to emphasize the patristic character of Aquinas s work so that the proposed solution will not be Hellenic, but essentially Christian.

Denna analys undersöker representationen av genus i en våldsam spelkontext i fightingspel-serien Mortal Kombat, med fokus på spel 9, 10 och 11. Genom en semiotisk bildanalys med fokus på utvalda karaktärers visuella design och förändring framkommer teman i deras relation med genus. En betydande förändring där de kvinnliga karaktärernas design går från en hypersexualiserad och hyperfeminin gestaltning, till en mer funktionell och täckande utstyrsel. Samtidigt ökar de manliga karaktärernas hypermaskulina drag som tidigt etablerats. De senare spelen visar på en minskad överdriven och stereotypisk design där karaktärerna blir allt mer realistiska. Analysen belyser även hur karaktärers könsidentitet och normer används i relation till identitet inom “den heterosexuella matrixen” för att undersöka hur deras binära representation används. En sen acceptans inom forskningsfältet gör att spelindustrins största fightingspel-serie är intressant att undersöka. / This analysis examines the representation of gender in a violent gaming context within the fighting game series Mortal Kombat, focusing on games 9, 10 and 11. Through a semiotic image analysis, highlighting the selected characters visual design and changes, relating to their gender relation. A significant shift in the female characters designs, going from a hypersexualized and hyperfeminine depiction to a more functional and covering attire. Simultaneously, there is an increase in hypermasculine traits among the male characters, which were seen early on. The later games exhibit reduced exaggerated and stereotypical designs, leading to characters becoming more realistic. Additionally, the analysis sheds light on how characters' gender identities and norms are utilized concerning identity within the “heterosexual matrix”, examining the use of binary representations. A late acceptance within the research field makes the analysis of the gaming industry's largest fighting game series an interesting subject to explore.

In The Pearl Button, Patricio Guzman explores the role water played in shaping how the Selk’nam inhabited the coasts of the Tierra del Fuego in Patagonia through “cosmovisions,’ sequences that extend beyond human perception, even as they link the habitation of indigenous peoples to subsequent colonial and political projects. Guzman’s “cosmovisual aesthetic” warrants dissection in the form of a video essay because of its complicated interplay between editing and shot distance, which establishes a critical bioregionalism that acknowledges the unique qualities of place, here the Tierra del Fuego, as well as the forces of globalization that threaten it. Guzman’s cosmovisual aesthetic ranges from extreme close-ups to reveal minute details in objects to aerial shots that articulate the shapes of coasts and even to telescopic shots depicting planets and nebulae. He works with archival photography and the superimposition of images/sounds in order to create a pluriverse of peoples and environments, which moves beyond human audiovisual and temporal perception. In doing so, The Pearl Button links the ways in which the Selk’nam inhabited Chile, depending on its waters, to the ocean as the source of the colonial project of Spain and site of political murders under the later dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet. Guzman’s cinematic elaboration of Indigenous worldviews resonates with contemporary Chilean philosophers Humberto Maturana, Francisco Varela, and Ricardo Rozzi. From cybernetics to ecological philosophy, this video essay weaves the insights of these Chilean philosophers with Guzman’s cosomovisions in order to highlight the complex ecological insights at the intersection of Indigenous thought and film form. In particular, it extends Rozzi’s practical model of Field Environmental Philosophy to communicating ecological philosophy through media.

These two issues are discussed by him in La Maladie the La Mort, under the pseudonym Anti-Climacus, and in Le concept d'Angoisse under the pseudonym of Vigilius Haufniensis. Both the despair, as the existential anguish are real problems which, sooner or later, the individual, as possessor of mind, hopelessly experience and are therefore aspects of the human condition. Kierkegaard understood the desperation as a deadly disease and identifies it with sin, whose faith is the antidote. Already the anguish is understood as the feeling that accompanies all human decisions / A presente dissertação propõe-se a investigar, com esteio em pesquisa teórica e bibliográfica, o desespero e a angústia, tendo como base a filosofia de Kierkegaard (1.813-1.855). O desespero é analisado por ele em La Maladie a La Mort, sob o pseudônimo de Anti-Climacus, e angústia em Le Concept d Angoisse, sob o pseudônimo de Vigilius Haufniensis. Tanto o desespero, quanto a angústia são problemas existenciais reais, que, cedo ou tarde, o indivíduo, por ser possuidor de espírito, experimentará irremediavelmente; são, portanto, aspectos inerentes à condição humana. Kierkegaard entende o desespero como uma doença mortal e identifica-o com o pecado, cujo antídoto é a fé. Já a angústia é entendida como o sentimento que acompanha todas as decisões humanas

My Thesis body of work, The Mythos for the Mortal, presents visual interpretations of apocalyptic mythoi—past, present, and future. These works are both a conscious and unconscious response to childhood exposure to apocalyptic stories and form a visual record of social, political and religious interpretations of the apocalypse. The overarching theme of apocalypse (from the Greek word Apokalypsis, meaning ‘to unveil’ or ‘to reveal’) has allowed me to reconnect to my youth and heritage and has driven me to articulate more clearly a perspective regarding the future and what it will ‘reveal’ to us. I use the landscape as a stage to create narratives and metaphors expressing these ideas. These paintings and drawings are divided into four categories of apocalypse: historical, future, ecological, and personal.
