  1. 1. Hazard screening of contaminated sites : bioavailable fractions and biological in vitro tools

    Författare :Daniel Ragnvaldsson; Mats Tysklind; Per Leffler; Lars Lövgren; Bengt-Erik Bengtsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hazard screening; bioavailability; metal pollution; in vitro cytotoxicity; water extraction; CCA; arsenic genotoxicity; genotoxicity; Contaminated soil; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi;

    Sammanfattning : The environmental bioavailability of contaminants, rather than their total concentrations in the soil compartment play a decisive role for the risks associated with contaminated sites. Various soil constituents and abiotic conditions have strong influence on bioavailability, which may vary substantially between different locations. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Screening for Cardiovascular Risk and Diabetes in Primary Health Care : The Söderåkra Risk Factor Screening Study

    Författare :Ulla Petersson; Peter Nilsson; Carl Johan Östgren; Lars Brudin; Lars Weinehall; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been the predominant cause of morbidity and mortality for many decades in Sweden. Preventive work in primary health care through individual approach and community-based programmes has shown some success. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Assessment and design of industrial manual handling to reduce physical ergonomics hazards : – use and development of assessment tools

    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ergonomics; Human Factors; Risk Assessment; Hazard Assessment; Screening; Observation; the RAMP tool; Design; Lifting; Pushing; Pulling; Postures; Usability; Musculoskeletal Disorders; Ergonomists; Evaluation; Reliability.; Ergonomi; Human Factors; Manuell Hantering; Riskbedömningar; Screening; Observation; RAMP verktyget; Design; Lyft; Skjuta; Dra; Arbetsställningar; Användbarhet; Belastningsbesvär; Ergonomer; Utvärdering; Reliabilitet.; Technology and Health; Teknik och hälsa;

    Sammanfattning : Despite efforts of reducing harmful physical ergonomics exposures related to manual handling, the occurrence of heavy or repetitive manual handling, and non-neutral postures is high in many occupational sectors. To reduce these exposures, interventions and job design strategies can utilize risk assessment. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Toxicometabolomics and biotransformation product screening in single zebrafish embryos

    Författare :Anton Ribbenstedt; Jonathan P. Benskin; Magnus Breitholtz; Elena Gorokhova; Emma Schymanski; Stockholms universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Over the last decade environmental agencies worldwide have escalated their work to phase out animal testing for the purposes of chemical regulation. Meanwhile the number of commercially available chemicals and the requirements for hazard assessments have both increased, creating a large need for substitution of traditional in vivo assays with in vitro tests.

  5. 5. Cervical cancer studies on prevention and treatment

    Författare :Lotten Darlin; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cervical cancer; human papilloma virus; HPV; screening; HPV test; self-sampling; sentinel node;

    Sammanfattning : Cervical cancer is the fourth most common reason for cancer death amongst women worldwide, with 500 000 new cases every year. Most of these women live in developing countries. Cervical screening programs can reduce the incidence by 50%, but are not common in the developing world. LÄS MER
