Role of menopause and hormone replacement therapy in sleep-disordered breathing
2020
There are suggestions that the loss of female sex hormones following menopause is critical for the development or progression of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). We conducted a review of the literature on the role of menopause and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in SDB risk. There is an increase in SDB during the menopausal transition period, but data on an effect beyond that of increasing age and changes in body habitus are weak or absent. Early community-based, observational studies reported a protective effect by HRT on SDB prevalence, but this could possibly be explained as a healthy user effect. Interventional studies of the effect of HRT on SDB are sparse, with only a few randomize…
Distribution of biodiversity in managed landscapes – can remotely sensed data be used to find biodiversity hot-spots?
2018
Management of boreal forests for timber production has caused changes in forest structures and disturbance regimes, which have influenced distribution patterns and abundance for a wide range of organisms. The aim of this study was to evaluate how bird and beetle species composition is influenced by stand age and management history in a heavily managed boreal forest landscape and whether it is possible to find biodiversity hot spots in these landscapes using remotely sensed data. Taxa included was flying and epigaeic beetles, and birds. We first compared the assemblages among stands of three ages: 1) young (8-25 years) and 2) middle-aged (40-58 years) stands regrown after clear-cutting, and …
