1. Studies of physical activity in the Swedish population
Sammanfattning : Background: Cheap and effective tools for measuring patients’ physical activity (PA) level are needed. The first aim in this thesis was therefore to assess the validity of two PA -questions, and their three associated answer modes, that are used within the Swedish health care system. LÄS MER
2. Neighborhood environment and physical activity
Sammanfattning : Introduction Insufficient levels of physical activity are one of the top contributors to global mortality, and it is an important public health priority to increase the proportion of physically active people in the population. The interest in environmental determinants of physical activity has been rapidly increasing over the past few years. LÄS MER
3. Environmental Factors of Importance in Myasthenia Gravis : Emphasis on Physical Activity
Sammanfattning : Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease caused by antibodies directed against proteins at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). The disturbed neuromuscular transmission induces fatigable weakness in skeletal muscles. LÄS MER
4. Young today-adult tomorrow! Studies on physical status, physical activity, attitudes, and self-perception in children and adolescents

Two studies were performed in southern Sweden. Study 1 was performed in 1996 among 301 adolescents aged 16-19 in upper secondary school. LÄS MER
5. Solar Wind and Geomagnetic Activity - Predictions Using Neural Networks
Sammanfattning : This thesis shows how artificial neural networks (ANNs) can be applied to predict geomagnetic activity from solar-wind data. It introduces and summarizes five papers where development of ANN models are reported, and where predictions of geomagnetic activity are discussed. LÄS MER
