3. 17. Chronic pain. Epidemiological studies in a general population

   Författare :Ingemar H Andersson; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; samhällsmedicin; Socialmedicin; Social medicine; epidemiology; chronic pain; diagnoses; health care; medication; smoking; uric acid; widespread pain;

   Sammanfattning : The aim was to study the epidemiology of chronic pain (> 3 months duration) and factors associated to pain prevalence, prognosis, health care and medication in a general population. A cross-sectional mailed survey to a random population sample (n = 1806) was followed by a clinical examination and a prospective study of three selected groups. LÄS MER

4. 18. Whiplash associated disorders : acute and chronic consequences with some implications for rehabilitation

5. 19. Musicianship and teaching : aspects of musculoskeletal disorders, physical and psychosocial work factors in musicians with focus on music teachers

   Författare :Anncristine Fjellman-Wiklund; Gunnevi Sundelin; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; music; musician; teaching; occupational; musculoskeletal; psychosocial aspect; mind-body; tai chi chuan; basic body awareness therapy; electromyography;

   Sammanfattning : Musculoskeletal disorders are common among musicians at all levels of performance. Since music teachers train our future musicians it is important to understand their work environment. By creating good examples of a healthy work environment, they can teach their students how to stay healthy and to prevent pain. LÄS MER

7. 20. Biomechanical assessment of head and neck movements in neck pain using 3D movement analysis

   Författare :Helena Grip; Gertjan Ettema; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :movement analysis; kinematics; helical axis; neck pain; whiplash; cervical spine; pattern classification; motor control; head-eye co-ordination; head movement; biomedicinsk strålningsvetenskap; Biomedical Radiation Science;

   Sammanfattning : Three-dimensional movement analysis was used to evaluate head and neck movement in patients with neck pain and matched controls. The aims were to further develop biomechanical models of head and neck kinematics, to investigate differences between subjects with non-specific neck pain and whiplash associated disorders (WAD), and to evaluate the potential of objective movement analysis as a decision support during diagnosis and follow-up of patients with neck pain.
