    Sammanfattning : There is substantial evidence that air pollution, in particular particulate matter (PM), affects our health. The overall objective of this thesis is to understand and quantify population exposure to ambient air pollution and related health impacts. LÄS MER

  2. 22. "If really we are committed things can change starting from us providers" Improving postpartum care : A facilitation intervention at government-owned health institutions in a low-resource suburb in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

    Författare :Eunice Pallangyo; Pia Olsson; Carina Källestål; Columba Mbekenga; Christine Rubertsson; Marie Berg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Globally, postpartum care is a neglected area in the continuum of maternal and newborn services. Facilitation interventions focusing on addressing local problems report positive results in improving the health of mothers and newborns in low-resource settings. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Den ojämlika dödligheten : Hjärtdödlighet och samhällsutveckling i två städer

    Sammanfattning : Den ojämlika dödligheten är en studie av främst hjärt–kärldödlighet avseende perioden 1950–2010 i tvillingstäderna Linköping och Norrköping och konsekvenserna av ojämlikhet. Skillnaderna mellan städerna i dödlighet är stora. Under 1970-talet, då jämlikheten stod i focus, minskade dessa. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Neck muscle function in individuals with persistent pain and disability after whiplash injury

    Författare :Gunnel Peterson; Anneli Peolsson; Åsa Dedering; Thorne Wallman; Björn Äng; Linköpings universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Background: Neck pain and disability are common after whiplash injury. One year after the accident up to 50 % still have symptoms called whiplash associated disorders (WAD). Despite decades of research the cause of persistent pain and disability are largely unknown and effective treatment and diagnostic tools are lacking. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Early detection is vital to successfully treating breast cancer, and mammography screening is the most efficient and wide-spread method to reach this goal. Imaging low-contrast targets, while minimizing the radiation exposure to a large population is, however, a major challenge. LÄS MER
