Abstract:
This paper explores the malnutrition eradication plan devised and overseen by paediatrician and nutritionist Fernando Monckeberg within the framework of the malnutrition eradication policies implemented by the Chilean military dictatorship during the 1970s and 1980s. It also examines the theoretical and conceptual aspects developed by this author within the context of renewed social Darwinism, with eugenic consequences, such as “sociogenic damage” and the relationship between nutrition and intellectual development.

Abstract:
Health is higher on the international agenda than ever before, and improving the health of poor people is a central issue in development. Poor people suffer from far higher levels of ill health, mortality, and malnutrition than do those better off, and their inadequate health is one of the factors keeping them poor or for their being poor in the first place. Health is a crucially important economic asset, particularly for poor people. Their livelihoods depend on it. When poor people become ill or injured, their entire household can become trapped in a downward spiral of lost income and high he

The simultaneous discovery of two corpses at the same scene obliges the forensic pathologist to consider many circumstances. First, the hypothesis of homicide/crime has to be investigated. However, when the circumstances, autopsy, histological data and toxicological and biochemical analyses suggest a natural cause of death, Philemon and Baucis syndrome should be considered. While a few cases of Philemon and Baucis deaths involving couples of spouses have been reported in the literature, only one paper describes the simultaneous deaths of two siblings.
