1. 1. Firefighters' physical work capacity

   Författare :Ann-Sofie Lindberg; Christer Malm; Juha Oksa; Desiree Gavhed; Peter Krustrup; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physical demands; performance; work capacity; aerobic fitness; anaerobic fitness; muscle strength; muscle endurance; balance; ergonomics; physical testing; SIMCA;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to identify valid, simple, and inexpensive physical tests that can be used for evaluation of firefighters’ physical work capacity. Paper I included fulltime- and part-time firefighters (n = 193), aged 20-60 years. LÄS MER

3. 2. Aerobic capacity in rheumatoid arthritis : aspects of associations with cardiovascular risk factors and disease activity

   Författare :Lars Ångström; Anna Södergren; Solveig Wållberg Jonsson; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic and inflammatory disease that has been associated with an increased morbidity and mortality in cardiovascular disease (CVD). Low aerobic capacity is one of the strongest independent risk factors for CVD and all-cause mortality in the general population. LÄS MER

4. 3. Physiological responses to acute physical and psychosocial stress- relation to aerobic capacity and exercise training

   Författare :Elin Arvidsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Acute stress; exercise training; aerobic capacity; physiological responses;

   Sammanfattning : Exercise training is an effective method to promote health and to prevent development of disease. Both physical and mental health have been shown to benefit from exercise training. It has also been speculated that physical exercise might affect responses to acute psychosocial stress. LÄS MER

5. 4. Aerobic exercise capacity in chronic kidney disease

   Författare :Helena Wallin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Aerobic exercise capacity is impaired in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and it is associated with increased mortality and reduced quality of life. The mechanisms underlying reduced exercise capacity in CKD are complex and a comprehensive understanding is lacking, particularly in non-dialysis dependent CKD. LÄS MER

7. 5. Postural balance, physical activity and capacity among young people with intellectual disability

   Författare :Sven Blomqvist; Börje Rehn; Anita Wester; Gunnevi Sundelin; Rolf Moe-Nilssen; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mental retardation; postural stability; muscle strength; balance perturbation; aerobic capacity; young adults;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate postural balance, physical activity, physical capacity and their associations in young people (16-20 years) with intellectual disability (ID), mild to moderate. The aim was also to study the reliability and concurrent validity of postural balance tests. LÄS MER
