   Författare :Negin Taghat; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bariatric surgery; dental caries; obesity; obesity management; oral health;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to study the oral health of individuals with obesity and how oral health may be affected by medical and surgical obesity treatment. The thesis comprises three study populations, with Paper I and IV studying female participants, while Paper II and III includes both genders. LÄS MER

3. 12. Oral Disease and Health Patterns : Dental and Cranial Paleopathology of the Early Iron Age Population at Smörkullen in Alvastra, Sweden

   Författare :Carola Liebe-Harkort; Jan Storå; SOFIA TRANÆUS; Simon Hillson; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Smörkullen; Alvastra; Sweden; Early Iron Age; dental disease; cranial lesion; caries diagnostics; pathways of infections; dietary patterns; environment; health; Historical osteology; Historisk osteologi; osteoarkeologi; Osteoarchaeology;

   Sammanfattning : In skeletal remains of ancient populations, evidence of dental and craniofacial pathology is often well preserved in the form of lesions on the teeth or bones. Meticulous, detailed recording of these lesions provides baseline data on which a realistic assessment can be made of the probable impact of dental diseases and its sequelae on health of these earlier populations.

4. 13. Towards Intelligent Deformable Models for Medical Image Analysis

   Författare :Ghassan Hamarneh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; shape modeling; deformable models; principal component analysis; echocardiography; snakes; active shape models; deformable spatio-temporal shape models; medial-based shape profiles; statistical shape variation; spatio-temporal shape analysis; magnetic resonance imaging; hierarchical regional principal component analysis; oral lesions; dynamic programming; segmentation; spring-mass model; shape deformation; optical flow; medical image analysis; artificial life; physics-based modeling; deformable organisms; digital color images; medial axis; active contour models;

   Sammanfattning : Medical imaging continues to permeate the practice of medicine, but automated yet accurate segmentation and labeling of anatomical structures continues to be a major obstacle to computerized medical image analysis (MIA). Deformable models, with its profound roots in estimation theory, optimization, and physics-based dynamical systems, represent a powerful approach to the general problem of medical image segmentation.

5. 14. Oral mucosal lesions, tobacco use and the long-term outcome in a Swedish population

   Författare :Ann Roosaar; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Follow up; mortality; oral lichen; oral leukoplakia; smokeless tobacco; smoking; snus; oral cancer; population-based;

   Sammanfattning : The overall objectives of this thesis were to study the natural history for Oral Lichen (OLL), Oral Leukoplakia (OL) and Snus Induced Lesions (SIL) and to correlate cancer and mortality among users and non-users of Swedish moist snuff (snus). The population sub-sample comprised a historic cohort of 20,333 individuals, established in 1973-74. LÄS MER

7. 15. Försök till tidig diagnos av kariessjukdomen

   Författare :Claes-Göran Crossner; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; dental caries; caries prediction; caries prevention; lactobacilli; salivary secretion rate;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of the present thesis was to find a test for prediction of caries activity which would be useful in routine clinical work.Correlations between oral health, general health, food habits and socioeconomic conditions were investigated in 4- and 8-year-old children. LÄS MER
