1. 6. Improved environmental monitoring and assessment : Establishing links between effects of chemical pollution at different levels of biological organization in a Baltic Sea bioindicator species (Monoporeia affinis)

   Författare :Martin Reutgard; Magnus Breitholtz; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Environmental health assessment; environmental monitoring; chemical pollution; hypoxia; bioindicators; biomarkers; teratogenicity; embryo toxicity; oxidative stress; acetylcholine esterase. Monoporeia affinis; Baltic Sea; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : A large number of chemicals enters the marine environment via atmospheric deposition, run-off, rivers and streams, industrial effluents and municipal wastewater. To understand how chemicals affect environmental health, monitoring and assessment approaches need to combine physical, chemical and biological effect parameters from different levels of biological organization.

3. 7. Ambulance Work : Relationships between occupational demands, individual characteristics and health-related outcomes

   Författare :Ulrika Aasa; Ewa Wigaeus Tornqvist; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :ambulance; autonomic reactivity; body size; cortisol; demand-control-support; emergency personnel; fitness; gender; heart rate variability; low-back pain; neck-shoulder pain; occupational; physical capacity; work simulated test; worry; Occupational and Environmental Medicine; arbets- och miljömedicin;

   Sammanfattning : Although musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and other health complaints are an occupational problem for ambulance personnel, there is a lack of knowledge regarding work-related factors associated with MSDs and other health complaints. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the relationships between occupational demands, individual characteristics and health-related outcomes among ambulance personnel. LÄS MER

4. 8. Flexible and Stretchable Biointerfacing for Healthcare Diagnostics

   Författare :Mina Rajabi; Niclas Roxhed; Pelle Rangsten; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :Wearable biointerfacing sensor; flexible and stretchable microneedles patch; wearable microneedles device; health and fitness monitoring; minimally invasive ICP monitoring; bioelectronics; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Flexible and stretchable wearable biomedical devices provide a platform for continues long-term monitoring of biological signals during neutral body movements thus enabling early intervention and diagnostics of various diseases. This thesis evaluates novel flexible and stretchable bio interfacing medical devices based on microneedle patches and split ring resonator for healthcare diagnostics. LÄS MER

5. 9. Life-course influences on occurrence and outcome for stroke and coronary heart disease

   Författare :Cecilia Bergh; Scott Montgomery; Katja Fall; Ylva Nilsagård; Peter Appelros; Meena Kumari; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiovascular disease; stroke; risk factors; adolescence; stress resilience; adult infections; life-course epidemiology; cohort study;

   Sammanfattning : Although typical clinical onset does not occur until adulthood, cardiovascular disease (CVD) may have a long natural history with accumulation of risks beginning in early life and continuing through childhood and into adolescence and adulthood. Therefore, it is important to adopt a life-course approach to explore accumulation of risks, as well as identifying age-defined windows of susceptibility, from early life to disease onset. LÄS MER

7. 10. Large-scale releases of native species : the mallard as a predictive model system

   Författare :Pär Söderquist; Högskolan Kristianstad; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; NATURVETENSKAP; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Anas platyrhynchos; Farmed; Hunting; Introgression; Longevity; Mallard; Migration; Morphology; Population genetic; Restocking; SNPs; Sweden;

   Sammanfattning : Human alteration of natural systems, and its consequences are of great concern and the impact on global ecosystems is one of the biggest threats that biodiversity stands before. Translocations of invasive species, as well as intraspecific contingents with non-native genotypes, whether they are deliberate or unintentional, are one such alteration and its consequences are continuously being assessed.
