1. 21. Working Animals and Skeletal Lesions : Paleopathology of Cattle and Horse in Iron Age and Medieval Öland, Sweden

   Författare :Ylva Telldahl; Jan Storå; László Bartosiewicz; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Skeletal lesions; draught use of cattle; sacrificed horses; Iron Age; Middle Ages; Eketorp ringfort; Skedemosse wetland; Öland; sweden; osteoarkeologi; Osteoarchaeology;

   Sammanfattning : Central to this thesis is the relationship between animal husbandry practices and the associated pathological conditions. Since bone elements from the extremities are subjected to abnormal load when animals are put to hard work this research aims to go further and interpret the prevalence of varying lesions and their connection with animal husbandry by using methods such as osteometric analysis, conventional radiograpic and bone mineral study, as well as incorporated molecular analysis.

   Sammanfattning : Age is often a neglected factor in ecological studies. However, age-related changes in reproduction and survival of organisms may strongly influence population dynamics. LÄS MER

4. 23. Physical loads and aspects of physical performance in middle-aged men and women

   Författare :Margareta Torgén; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Medical sciences; physical work load; age; gender; muscle strength; aerobic power; sensory threshold; epidemiology; questionnaire; reproducibility; validity; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Clinical Physiology; klinisk fysiologi;

   Sammanfattning : This investigation aimed at a description of different aspects of physical loads during a 24 year follow-up (1970-1993) in 484 men and women born between 1935 and 1952, in relation to different aspects of physical performance, as measured at follow-up. The subjects were originally recruited in 1969 from the Stockholm county generalpopulation. LÄS MER

5. 24. Marks and makers : Appearance, distribution and function of Middle and Late Helladic manufacturers' marks on Aeginetan pottery

   Författare :Michael Lindblom; Gullög Nordquist; Carol Zerner; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Archaeology; Pre-firing or potters’ marks; Kolonna; Aegina; Gold Mica pottery; export industry; production; workshops; Lerna; Asine; Aegean prehistory; Bronze Age; Middle Helladic; Late Helladic; Arkeologi; Archaeology subjects; Arkeologiämnen; Archaeology; Arkeologi;

   Sammanfattning : This study is an attempt to analyse the systematic marking of vessels produced on the island of Aegina in the Middle and Late Helladic periods. It deals with both the form and function of the marks, applied during the manufacture of functionally different vases. The first two chapters provide a background to the investigation. LÄS MER

7. 25. Age and gender differences in risk factor burden, myocardial dysfunction and cardiovascular events in relation to glucose metabolism

   Författare :Margrét Leosdottir; Internmedicin - epidemiologi; []
   Nyckelord :Age; cardiovascular disease; diabetes; echocardiography; gender; glucose; left ventricular function; Nt-proBNP; self-rated health;

   Sammanfattning : The risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and heart failure (HF) among individuals with diabetes is at least two times greater than in non-diabetic subjects. However, the excess risk of CVD in diabetic subjects seems to decrease with age. LÄS MER
