1. 1. Cold exposure and thermal comfort among patients in prehospital emergency care : innovation research in nursing

   Författare :Jonas Aléx; Britt-Inger Saveman; Stig Karlsson; Ulf Björnstig; Inggard Lereim; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; thermal comfort; thermal discomfort; cold exposure; cold stress; hypothermia; patients’ experiences; active warming; prehospital emergency care; finger temperature; back temperature; omvårdnadsforskning med medicinsk inriktning; Caring Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : BackgroundPatients’ cold exposure is a neglected problem in prehospital emergency care. Cold stress increases pain and anxiety and contributes to fear and an overall sense of dissatisfaction. When left untreated, cold stress disturbs vital body functions until ultimately reaches hypothermia. LÄS MER

3. 2. On the behaviour of tailings dams : Management in cold regions

   Författare :Roger Knutsson; Jan Laue; Andy Fourie; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Soil Mechanics; Geoteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Associated to mining activities there is mine waste generated. The residues left over from mineralextraction processes are referred to as tailings, normally stored in surface tailings facilities. Thefacilities are usually confined by embankment dams, so called tailings dams. LÄS MER

4. 3. Cold air, physical activity, and the airways : epidemiological and experimental studies

   Författare :Linda Eklund; Nikolai Stenfors; Anne Lindberg; Thomas Sandström; Rita Sjöström; Leif Bjermer; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; asthma; asthma medication; athletes; cold temperature; environmental chamber; epidemiology; healthy; orienteers; physical activity; respiratory symptoms; risk factors; skiers; lungmedicin; Lung Medicine;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Cold exposure is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Elite cross-country skiers are regularly exposed to cold, dry air and have a high prevalence of asthma compared to the Swedish population. LÄS MER

5. 4. Enzyme Cold Adaptation through Evolution of Protein Flexibility

   Författare :Jaka Sočan; Johan Åqvist; Hugo Gutiérrez-de-Terán; Janez Mavri; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; EVB; Empirical valence bond method; Pancreatic elastase; α-amylase; Enzyme catalysis; Enzyme evolution; Cold adaptation; Temperature dependence of catalytic rates; Psychrophilic enzyme; Molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Life Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : What lives, evolves. Macromolecular catalysis is a process, central to both evolutionary and metabolic aspect of life, as it provides a systematic bias favouring certain chemical processes. LÄS MER

7. 5. Protection and treatment of hypothermia in prehospital trauma care : with emphasis on active warming

   Författare :Peter Lundgren; Ulf Björnstig; Peter Naredi; Tore Vikström; Anne Guttormsen; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hypothermia; kirurgi; Surgery;

   Sammanfattning : Background: In prehospital trauma care active warming is recommended to aid in protection from further cooling. However, scientific evidence of the effectiveness of active warming in a clinical setting is scarce. Also, evaluating the effectiveness of active warming, especially in harsh ambient conditions, by objective measures, is difficult. LÄS MER
