1. 36. Physical activity assessed by accelerometry in children

   Författare :Andreas Nilsson; Karin Piehl-Aulin; Ulf Ekelund; Gareth Stratton; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; activity patterns; adolescents; health promotion; activity monitor; sedentary; Medicine; Medicin; Biomedicin; Biomedicine;

   Sammanfattning : Physical activity (PA) is likely to constitute an important aspect of health-related behaviour in growing children. However, the knowledge on levels and patterns of PA in children is limited, due to the difficulty of precisely measuring this complex behaviour in normal daily living. LÄS MER

3. 37. Cold air, physical activity, and the airways : epidemiological and experimental studies

5. 39. Physiotherapy and physical activity in patients undergoing cardiac or lung cancer surgery

   Författare :Marcus Jonsson; Elisabeth Westerdahl; Anita Hurtig-Wennlöf; Anders Ahlsson; Maria Hagströmer; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physiotherapy; Physical Activity; Cardiac surgery; Lung Cancer; Randomized Controlled Trial; Thoracic surgery; Physical Function; Lung Function;

   Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Cardiac surgery is performed to improve prognosis, relieve symptoms and increase functional capacity in patients with cardiac disease. Postoperative pulmonary complications are common after cardiac surgery and a reduced lung function can persist a long time after surgery. LÄS MER

7. 40. Making water information relevant on local to global scale – the role of Information Systems for Integrated Water Management

   Författare :Fredrik Hannerz; Georgia Destouni; Dennis Lettenmaier; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Integrated water management; hydrology; environmental information systems; environmental monitoring; land cover; GIS; Sweden; Baltic Sea; European Union; global water; global change; Water Framework Directive; Physical geography; Naturgeografi; Physical Geography; naturgeografi;

   Sammanfattning : Relevant information is essential for finding solutions in Integrated Water Management (IWM). Complex water systems and a need for increasing integration of sectors, actors and scales in IWM require new methods for developing and managing such information. LÄS MER
