1. 1. Indoor environment and air quality in hospital units : Symptoms and signs

   Författare :Klas Nordström; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Medical sciences; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; arbets- och miljömedicin; Occupational and Environmental Medicine;

   Sammanfattning : Indoor environment may influence the occurrence of symptoms such as eye, skin and upper airway irritation, headache and fatigue. The aim of the dissertation was to study relations between subjective indoor air quality, such symptoms, clinical signs from the nose and the eyes and the physical indoor environment, in particular the effect of dampness, type of building, and air humidification.

3. 2. Office illness : the worker, the work and the workplace

   Författare :Berndt Stenberg; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Sick Building Syndrome; Indoor Air Syndrome; facial skin symptoms; constitutional factors; psychosocial factors; indoor air quality; outdoor air flow rate; electromagnetic conditions; VDT work;

   Sammanfattning : The work started with the clinical observations in patients working in buildings with indoor air problems. Signs of seborrhoeic dermatitis, erythematous facial skin conditions and itching conditions on the trunk were noted. Another point of departure was the attribution of facial skin symptoms to VDT work by patients. LÄS MER

4. 3. Office work and physical factors : health aspects of electromagnetic fields and light

   Författare :Monica Sandström; Kjell Hansson Mild; Gunnar Nordberg; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Facial skin symptoms; office illness; electrical hypersensitivity; physical environment; flicker; jitter; neurophysiological effects;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis is to increase our knowledge of the physical environment of office workers with special focus on electromagnetic fields and to address the question of whether electromagnetic fields can directly or indirectly contribute to symptoms or discomfort among video display terminal ( VDT) workers. Furthermore, we have measured light modulation from various commonly used light sources in laboratory conditions and, as a second step, used modulated light as stimulus for provocation of neurophysiological responses in persons with perceived “electrical hypersensitivity” (EHS).

5. 4. Peripheral neuropathy in Lyme borreliosis

   Författare :Eva Kindstrand; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Lyme borreliosis; neuroborreliosis; acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans; peripheral neuropathy; cranial neuropathy;

   Sammanfattning : Tick-transmitted Lyme borreliosis (LB) is frequently associated with manifestations from the peripheral nervous system. One aim of the thesis was to describe the relationship between peripheral neuropathy and LB by prospective studies of a) LB in some defined neurological conditions with peripheral nerve engagement and b) peripheral neuropathy in the late dermatological LB manifestation acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans (ACA).

7. 5. Clinical, epidemiological and immunological aspects of Lyme borreliosis with special focus on the role of the complement system

   Författare :Anna J Henningsson; Jan Ernerudh; Pia Forsberg; Kristina Nilsson Ekdahl; Bo-Eric Malmvall; Lars Hagberg; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Lyme borreliosis; neuroborreliosis; clinical; epidemiology; inflammation; complement; cytokine; chemokine;

   Sammanfattning : Lyme borreliosis (LB) is the most common vector-borne disease in the Northern Hemisphere. The infection is caused by spirochetes belonging to the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato complex, and it is transmitted to humans by ticks. LÄS MER
