  1. 1. Effects of Meditation on Respiration and the Temporal Lobes : An Exploratory and Meta-Analytic Study

    Författare :Yvonne Petersson Bouin; Centrum för teologi och religionsvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Personality; Cognition; Emotions; Deconditioning; Amygdala; Temporal lobes; Carbon dioxide; Meditation; Respiration; Meta-analysis; Theology; Teologi;

    Sammanfattning : Two assertions made by the Eastern meditation traditions were investigated: (a) breath regulation is a prerequisite for attaining altered states of consciousness, (b) meditation leads to changes in cognitive processes and in personality. A deconditioning process was conceptualized involving the temporal lobes and the amygdala. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Biomechanical analyses of flywheel resistance exercise : From a space- and ground-based perspective

    Författare :Maria Sjöberg; Ola Eiken; Elena Gutierrez-Farewik; Hans E Berg; Patrik Sundblad; Loren FZ Chiu; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; AnyBody Modeling System; concentric; eccentric; eccentric overload; inverse dynamics; knee extensors; microgravity; musculoskeletal deconditioning; net-joint moment; AnyBody Modeling System; excentrisk; excentrisk överbelastning; invers dynamik; knäextensorer; koncentrisk; ledmoment; mikrogravitation; muskuloskeletal nedbrytning; Teknik och hälsa; Technology and Health;

    Sammanfattning : Astronauts suffer degradation of postural muscles and weight-bearing bones during long-duration spaceflight. Resistance exercise is used as a primary countermeasure against these degradations. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Recurrent low-back pain : exercise intervention and predictive factors

    Författare :Eva Rasmussen Barr; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Low-back pain; disability; exercises; aerobic fitness; self-efficacy; fear-avoidance; physical health; deconditioning; rehabilitation; predictors; primary care;

    Sammanfattning : Low-back pain continues to be one of the main problems for which subjects seek treatment in primary care. While the natural history of low-back pain is often considered to be good, many sufferers get further episodes that affect well-being as well as quality of life. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Cardiovascular function after long-term bed rest

    Författare :Jonas Spaak; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Microgravity; simulated weightlessness; carotid baroreflex; static exercise; muscle chemoreflex; orthostasis; tilting; leg exercise; blood pressure; heart rate; stroke volume;

    Sammanfattning : On earth, daily activities involve standing, changes of posture and various types of muscle action, all of which challenge the cardiovascular regulation. Removal of the orthostatic stress for a longer period, as during spaceflight or head-down tilt bed rest, consistently results in cardiovascular deconditioning. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Angina pectoris : neurophysiological mechanisms with special references to adenosine and Syndrome X

    Författare :Björn E Eriksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Angina pectoris; adenosine; myocardial ischemia; nociception; cardiac nervous system; neuropathic; analgesia; [beta]-endorphin; met-enkephlin; exercise; Syndrome X; silent ischemia; biopsies; physical training;

    Sammanfattning : Angina pectoris is the major symptom of ischemic heart disease (IHD). It is a visceral pain and the clinical presentation is complex. Its character is not well defined and this is reflected in a lack of specific pain-mediating neural structures. LÄS MER
