Popular Abstract in Swedish Nervrotskompression i nacken - effekter av kirurgi, sjukgymnastik och halskrage. Under de senaste decennierna har besvär från halsrygg och axlar ökat hos befolkningen, medan besvär från ländrygg minskat. En orsak kan vara att tunga lyft i arbetet har minskat, medan sittande arbete med upprepade monotona armrörelser och arbete med framåtböjd nacke t.ex. framför datorskäThe efficacy of surgery, physiotherapy or a cervical collar in the treatment of chronic cervicobrachial pain of radicular origin was evaluated in a prospective, randomised study comprising 81 patients of both sexes, 28-64 years of age, referred for possible neurosurgical treatment. After neurological and radiological examination and giving their informed consent, they were randomised to one of the

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling har fokus på arbetsrehabilitering för personer som är sjukskrivna eller riskerar att bli det. För dem som blir sjukskrivna kan det bli aktuellt med arbetsrehabilitering. Första steget i en sådan är att utreda individens arbetsförmåga. Utredningen ligger sedan till grund för val av fortsatta åtgärder, för utvärdering av rehabiliteringen samt i vissa falThe overall aim of this thesis was to contribute to the development of new instruments for use in work rehabilitation contexts and to investigate whether clients’ perceptions of their work environment changed while participating in a work rehabilitation programme, as well as how they perceived the programme. The work rehabilitation in focus was the Redesigning Daily Occupations (ReDO) programme. T

Svår fetma är ett svårbehandlat tillstånd och hittills har fetmakirurgi visat sig vara den metod som ger den största och mest beständiga viktminskningen över längre tid. Fetmakirurgi har tidigare endast erbjudits vuxna både i Sverige och i andra länder. Under senare år har fetmakirurgi börjat prövas som ett behandlingsalternativ till ungdomar med svår fetma där annan behandling inte har gett tillrBariatric surgery is tried out as a new treatment option for adolescents with severe obesity. Little is known about outcomes in mental health in adolescents who undergo weight loss surgery.The 3 studies in this thesis assess mental health in adolescents before, and after 4 months, 1 year and 2 years after undergoing gastric bypass. The studies are part of the Swedish national AMOS study and all ad

Vi spenderar en tredjedel av våra liv sovandes och sömn är en avgörande faktor för god hälsa och välbefinnande. Men det är även viktigt att erkänna sömnens komplexitet, eftersom det är flera faktorer som kan påverka sömnen. Både biologiska, kontextuella och psykosociala faktorer har inverkan på ungdomarnas sömn. Otillräcklig sömn, sömnproblem och symptom på insomni är vanligt hos ungdomar. SömnlösInsufficient sleep, sleep problems and insomnia are common in adolescents, and insomnia and insufficient sleep are public health concerns that can impact adolescents’ mental and physical health. There are several different treatments for sleep problems and insomnia, and there is a great focus on the problem when it has already arisen. However, since this is a public health problem, it is important

In terms of its total population, Sweden is one of the countries with the highest proportion of immigrants in the EU. Several factors are critical in integrating immigrants, especially their economic security in a new country. This thesis examines the relationship between law enforcement and economic security for over- indebted immigrants. The primary purpose of this research is to explore the rel

Combustion, present in a vast majority of energy and material production as well as in transportation, represents a foundation of our modern society. To improve and optimize the applications relying on combustion demand a high level of knowledge, and an ability to simulate the combustion process. To do so three-dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) combustion simulations can be used, whereCombustion, present in a vast majority of energy and material production as well as in transportation, represents a foundation of our modern society.

Cobalt (Co) nanoparticles (NPs) may be diffusely dispersed into natural ecosystems from various anthropogenic sources such as traffic settings and eventually end up in aquatic systems. As environmentally dispersed Co NPs may be transferred through an aquatic food web, this study investigated this transfer from algae (Scendesmus sp.) to zooplankton (Daphnia magna) to fish (Crucian carp, Carassius cCobalt (Co) nanoparticles (NPs) may be diffusely dispersed into natural ecosystems from various anthropogenic sources such as traffic settings and eventually end up in aquatic systems.

Floder och åar är viktiga källor för järn och andra näringsämnen till Östersjön. De senaste decennierna har järnkoncentrationen i svenska och finska åar ökat kraftigt, vilket skulle kunna leda till en ökad transport av järn till Östersjön. Vilken effekt detta kan ha för Östersjön beror på vad som händer med järnet när det möter det salta vattnet i Östersjön. Järn transporteras huvudsakligen i formRivers have traditionally not been considered important sources of bioavailable iron (Fe) to the marine waters, since most Fe is lost by salinity-induced aggregation and sedimentation during estuarine mixing. However, recent studies from boreal rivers found a remarkably high Fe stability, probably due to the interaction with organic matter. Recent studies have suggested that Fe speciation is a key

However, growing evidence shows that balance and gait problems mayoccur early in the disease.OBJECTIVE: To describe balance, gait, and falls/near falls in persons with newlydiagnosed, untreated PD (“de novo”), and to compare this with persons with mildmoderatePD (Later PD).
