  1. 1. Physical activity and exercise in patients with intermittent claudication

    Författare :Anna Sandberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Accelerometry; Nordic walking; Peripheral artery disease; Quality of life; Reproducibility of result; Walk test;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction. Supervised exercise is a guideline recommendation in patients with intermittent claudication (IC). As the availability of supervised exercise varies, interest has turned to the more accessible home-based exercise programmes. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Acute pulmonary embolism - aspects of respiratory symptoms and physical activity

    Författare :Jenny S Danielsbacka; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pulmonary embolism; Symptoms and signs; respiratory; Activity leisure; Respiratory function tests; Walk test; Qualitative research;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction. Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the third most common cardiovascular disease, after myocardial infarction and stroke. Post-PE syndrome, which is characterized by long-term consequences of PE with persistent dyspnea and decreased functional capacity, has been acknowledged as a risk in the aftermath. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents results in Extreme Value Theory with applications to High-Throughput Screening and Bioinformatics. The methods described here, however, are applicable to statistical analysis of huge datasets in general. The main results are covered in four papers. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Three Essays on Electricity Spot and Financial Derivative Prices at the Nordic Power Exchange

    Författare :Daniel Deng; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Nord Pool; market efficiency; cointegration; rational expectation competitive storage model; BDS test; Hsiehâ??s third order moment test; nonlinear causality; EGARCH; convenience yield; call option;

    Sammanfattning : Essay I examines the market efficiency issues at the Nord Pool power exchange in the September 1995 - July 2002 period. A unique characteristic of this electricity exchange is the high hydropower proportion in the traded electricity; water in the hydro reservoir acting as hydropower inventory therefore plays an important role in the pricing of electricity.

  7. 5. Lung function in relation to exercise capacity in health and disease

    Författare :Amir Farkhooy; Andrei Malinovschi; Christer Janson; Hans Hedenström; Harrpa Arnardottir; Ann Ekberg Jansson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Exercise capacity; Exercise test; Lung function; Spirometri; Diffusion capacity; COPD; Pulmonary hypertension; Clinical Physiology; Klinisk fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Exercise capacity (EC) is widely recognized as a strong and independent predictor of mortality and disease progression in various diseases, including cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases. Furthermore, it is generally accepted that exercise capacity in healthy individuals and in patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases is mainly limited by the maximum cardiac output. LÄS MER
