  1. 1. Psychological and physiological effects on Swedish worker’s health when using a health promotion intervention including mechanical massage and mental training - a pilot study

    Författare :Jasmin Muller; Anette Ekström; Britt Hedman Ahlström; Jönköping University; []
    Nyckelord :Alternative; Anxiety; Blood pressure; Complementary; Heart rate; Intervention; Massage; Physical Health; Psychosocial health; Randomized controlled study; Salutogenic theory; Stress; Temperature; Working place;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction:Work-related stress is one of the most challenging issues on workplaces. Reduced ability to relax and recover has been proposed as a key factor behind the increase of stress-related illness among workers. Massage and mental training are two commonly used techniques which may have positive effects on the ability to recover. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Accidental hypothermia and local cold injury : physiological and epidemiological studies on risk

    Författare :Helge Brändström; Michael Haney; Urban Wiklund; Anders Eriksson; Karl-Axel Ängquist; Ola Winsö; Sigridur Kalman; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cold-related injuries; hypothermia; frostbite; cold adaptation; rewarming; autonomic nervous system; heart rate variability;

    Sammanfattning : Background: (Papers I and II) The objectives were to first determine incidence and contributing factors to cold-related injuries in northern Sweden, both those that led to hospitalization and those that led to fatality.  (Papers III and IV) A further aim was to assess post-cooling hand-rewarming responses and effects of training in a cold environment, both on fingertip rewarming and on function of the autonomic nervous system, to evaluate if there was adaptation related to prolonged occupational cold exposure.

  4. 4. Molecular mechanisms in obesity-associated metabolic disease

    Författare :Louise Olofsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :obesity; metabolic syndrome; cholesterol; resting metabolic rate; insulin resistance; serum amyloid A; S100 calcium binding protein A1; Zn-alpha2-glycoprotein; CCAAT enhancer binding protein alpha;

    Sammanfattning : Obesity is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Subjects with obesity are at risk of developing several serious conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease and stroke. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia and Emotion : Effects of pictorial stimuli and state anxiety

    Författare :Peter Jönsson; Institutionen för psykologi; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Psychology; state anxiety; emotion; HRV; heart rate variability; RSA; Respiratory sinus arrhythmia; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) refers to heart rate variations due to respiration, which results from parasympathetic nervous system activity mediated via the tenth cranial nerve, the vagus. Thus, the magnitude of RSA is considered as an index of cardiac vagal tone. This thesis explored RSA during emotional responding in healthy women and men. LÄS MER
