1. 6. Cariological and Salivary Studies in 70-Year-Old Cohorts

   Författare :Cecilia Johanson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cohort differences; cross-sectional; dental health; elderly; epidemiology; lifestyle; longitudinal; medication; population study; saliva; socioeconomic;

   Sammanfattning : Life expectancy after 65 years of age has increased markedly during the last decades, and is still increasing. The purpose of this thesis was to describe differences in dental health between 70- year-olds born in different years, to describe caries prevalence, incidence over a 6-year period in one cohort, and try to find risk factors for dental caries.

   Sammanfattning : Objective. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the oral health of young individuals with and without asthma. Material. In Study I, a group of 3- (n=66) and 6-year-old children (n=61) with asthma and two healthy control groups (n=62 and n=55 respectively) participated. LÄS MER

4. 8. Health problems and work-related stress in Swedish ambulance personnel

   Författare :Kåre Karlsson; Lennart Christensson; Anders Jonsson; Lars Lundberg; Jan Mårtensson; Per-Olof Michel; Jönköping University; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; work-related stress; ambulance personnel; cortisol; heart rate;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Previous studies have shown a high incidence of both acute and post-traumatic stress among ambulance personnel. It has been shown that ambulance personnel are at a higher risk of being affected of heart disease, high blood pressure and cancer. Studies have also seen a higher incidence of substance abuse and suicide. LÄS MER

5. 9. Smoking, snuffing and oral health with special reference to dental caries

   Författare :Lena Hellqvist; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; carbohydrates; dental care habits; dental caries; nicotine-containing snus; nicotine-free snus; plaque pH; salivary factors; smokeless tobacco; smoking; snuff; socioeconomic factors; tobacco; Dental Hygiene; Oral hälsa; carbohydrates; dental care habits; dental caries; nicotine-containing snus; nicotine-free snus; plaque pH; salivary factors; smokeless tobacco; smoking; snuff; socioeconomic factors; tobacco;

   Sammanfattning : Background and aims: This thesis describes oral health and the use of tobacco with the emphasis on dental caries and Swedish snuff (snus). There appears to be a general opinion in Sweden that snus protects against caries, but there are no scientific studies that support these speculations. LÄS MER

7. 10. Unstimulated human whole saliva flow rate in relation to hyposalivation and dental caries

   Författare :Håkan Flink; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Dental caries; iron deficiency; serum ferritin; unstimulated whole saliva; resting saliva; xerostomia; dry mouth; circadian rhythm.;

   Sammanfattning : Introduction: Salivary secretion is influenced by a large number of factors, including the circadian rhythm, making the detection of reduced salivary flow (hyposalivation) difficult. This is important since severely reduced salivary secretion has been associated with an increased risk for dental caries and may be a sign of a general disease, e.g. LÄS MER
