Mechanical load through physical activity has been shown to be one of the best stimuli to increase the bone strength. This effect of mechanical load accounts for both the accrual of bone mineral and structural skeletal adaptations. Exercise prescription also includes a "window of opportunity" in the late pre- and early peri-pubertal period, where exercise is supposed to insert the most obvious ben

Genom EU-rätten och Sveriges konventioner om social trygghet ingår Försäkringskassan och andra svenska socialförsäkringsorgan i internationella administrativa samarbetsstrukturer. I dessa utbyts uppgifter om enskilda i fråga om exempelvis namn, familjeförhållanden och hälsotillstånd. I artikeln undersöks hur Försäkringskassan ska delta i sådant informationsutbyte och samtidigt tillämpa den svenska

A matched case-referent study was conducted to investigate the risk of gastrointestinal cancer in cement workers. All male cases of cancer in esophagus, stomach, colon and rectum in the period 1922-1988 from two parishes surrounding a cement plant were identified. For each case, four referents were chosen, matched to age and year of death. Employment in the cement plant was confirmed as from plant

Limited data exist on surgical providers and their scope of practice in low-income countries (LICs). The aim of this study was to assess the distribution and productivity of all surgical providers in an LIC, and to evaluate correlations between the surgical workforce availability, productivity, rates, and volume of surgery at the district and hospital levels.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Utveckling av nya industriella produkter sker allt oftare med hjälp av datormodeller. Dessa modeller beskriver fysiken för respektive produkt, vilket exempelvis kan vara en bil eller ett kraftverk. Med hjälp av modellerna kan en stor del av analyserna på de framtida produkterna ske med hjälp av datorer, varför färre prototyper behöver konstrueras, vilket medför kortare Simulation of coupled dynamical systems, where the subsystems are bundled with their own internal solver, is important in industry. This is due to that in many cases, with complex systems, this is the only viable option. In this setting, the dynamics of each system is hidden and information between subsystems is exchanged through sampled inputs and outputs, a weakly coupled system. While a new ind

The issue of word stress has not been the subject of any detailed analysis in traditional works on Romanian. It is generally assumed that stress is not predictable. The generalizations that have been made concerning stress placement are, however, made on the basis of observations of surface forms. Mallinson 1987:300 says that “stress is free and variable, giving rise to doublets: m'odele ‘the fash

BACKGROUND: Refugee women have a high risk of coronary heart disease with low physical activity as one possible mediator. Furthermore, cultural and environmental barriers to increasing physical activity have been demonstrated. The aim of the study was to evaluate the combined effect of an approximate 6-month primary health care- and community-based exercise intervention versus an individual writte

The pancreatic islet beta-cells are the target for an autoimmune process that eventually results in an inability to control blood glucose due to the lack of insulin. The different steps that eventually lead to the complete loss of the beta-cells are reviewed to include the very first step of a triggering event that initiates the development of beta-cell autoimmunity to the last step of appearance

BACKGROUND: A role for the transient receptor potential (TRP) A1 ion channel in rat lower urinary tract (LUT) sensation and disease has been proposed, but in the human LUT no information on TRPA1 activity is available. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the distribution of TRPA1 in the human urethra and to study the effect of TRPA1 agonists on isolated urethral strip preparations. DESIGN, SETTINGS, AND PA

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med denna avhandling är att undersöka vilken roll synlighet spelar i skapandet och utmanandet av tillhörighet till politiska gemenskaper. Baserat på en empirisk studie av ryska medier under 2010-talet föreslås ett sätt att teoretiskt begreppsliggöra förhållandet mellan synlighet och tillhörighet, som utgår från idén att vad som blir synligt för en publik och hur,The purpose of this dissertation is to explore the role of visibility in the production and contestation of belonging to political communities. On the basis of an empirical enquiry of Russian media during the 2010s, a theoretical conceptualization of the relation between visibility and belonging is suggested, starting in the idea that what becomes visible to publics and how, and what is rendered i
