1. 21. A Longitudinal Study of Asthma : Risk Factors and Prognosis

   Författare :Monica Uddenfeldt; Anna Rask-Andersen; Christer Janson; Dan Norbäck; Kjell Larsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :asthma epidemiology; longitudinal studies; obstructive airway symptoms; risk factors; BMI; diet; smoking; allergic sensitization; atopy; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to identify risk factors for the onset of adult asthma. Other objectives were to study determinants of smoking habits and the association between sensitization and outcome of asthma. In 1990, a questionnaire was distributed to 12,732 individuals from three age groups (16, 30-39 and 60-69 years) in two counties of Sweden. LÄS MER

3. 22. Long-term consequences of vaginal delivery on the pelvic floor. A comparison with caesarean section in one-para women

   Författare :Maria Gyhagen; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; urinary incontinence; pelvic organ prolapse; fecal incontinence; vaginal delivery; caesarean section; BMI; epidemiology; subtypes; bothersome; severity; anal incontinence; episiotomy; perineal tear;

   Sammanfattning : Abstract Long-term consequences of vaginal delivery on the pelvic floor: A comparison with caesarean section in one-parae women Urinary incontinence (UI), symptomatic pelvic organ prolapse (sPOP), and faecal and anal incontinence (FI and AI) are the three major sequelae of childbirth. It has as yet not been finally settled whether in the long term vaginal delivery (VD) is detrimental to pelvic floor function in comparison to caesarean section (CS). LÄS MER

4. 23. Overweight and obesity in the young and old: Prevalence, prevention and eating behavior

   Författare :Gabriele Eiben; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :prevention; BMI; elderly; young adults; lifestyle; diet; intervention; secular trends; twin study; EDI-2; genetic; environment;

   Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Background: During the last 25 years the prevalence of overweight and obe-sity has increased dramatically, both in developed and developing countries. The World Health Organization is declaring it an epidemic. In Sweden the increase was almost 50% between 1980 and 2005. The largest increases oc-curred in the 16-24-year age group. LÄS MER

5. 24. Development of cardiovascular disease risk in middle-aged men. The Cardiovascular Risk Factor Study in Southern Sweden, CRISS

   Författare :Karin Henriksson; Avdelningen för arbets- och miljömedicin; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cardiovascular system; Kardiovaskulära systemet; Population Study; Overweight; S-Cholesterol; Middle-aged men; Hypertension; Ethnicity; Epidemiology; Education; Cardiovascular disease; Body height; BMI; Alcohol; Blood pressure; Unemployment;

   Sammanfattning : The Cardiovascular Risk Factor Study in Southern Sweden, CRISS, was initiated to explore if men at increased risk at developing CVD risk factors can be identified already before age 40. Starting in 1990 two birth cohorts of men residing in Helsingborg, Sweden, were surveyed at age 37 (n=991, participation rate 68%), at age 40 (n=770) and age 43 (n=702), respectively. LÄS MER

7. 25. Development of highly biocompatible neuro-electronic interfaces towards monitoring authentic neuronal signaling in the brain

   Författare :Johan Agorelius; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; BMI; brain machine interface; Neuro-electronic interface; neurophysiology; brain computer interface; biocompatibility; biocompatible neural interface; neural interface; histology; electrophysiology;

   Sammanfattning : Background: To understand how the neuronal circuits in the brain process information there is a need for novelneuro-electronic interfaces that can interact chronically with brain tissue with minimal disturbance of thephysiological conditions in the tissue, in awake and freely moving animals. For this, there is a need for implantableneuro-electronic interfaces that are mechanically compliant with the tissue and that can remain positionally stablewith respect to the neurons, despite the continuous micromotions in the brain.
