The prevalence of musculoskeletal pain and use of painkillers among adolescent male ice hockey players in Finland
2014
Participating in competitive sport increases the risk for injuries and musculoskeletal pain among adolescent athletes. There is also evidence that the use of prescription drugs has increased among sport club athletes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of painkillers among young male ice hockey players (IHP) in comparison to schoolboys (controls) and its relation to the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain and problems during activities and sleeping. Information was gathered through a questionnaire, completed by 121 IHP and compared to the responses of 618 age-matched controls. Results showed that monthly existing pain was at 82% for IHP, and 72% for controls, though IHP had st…
Kirjalliset velkasitoumukset 1800-luvun Suomessa
2019
Johdanto: Esiteollisissa yhteiskunnissa rahatalous oli vähäistä. Siksi luotolla oli keskeinen merkitys kaikessa taloudellisessa toiminnassa ja kaikissa sosiaalisissa kerrostumissa. Luotolla rahoitettiin sekä liiketoimintaa että yksityiselämän tarpeita. Koska pankkilaitos oli kehittymätön, lainaaminen tapahtui valtaosin yksityishenkilöiden ja yritysten välillä, ja luottoa myönnettiin usein suullisiin lupauksiin tai muihin epämuodollisiin velkasitoumuksiin perustuen.[1] Vaikka epävirallisuus ja epämuodollisuus määrittivät näin ollen suurta osaa lainaamisesta, esiteolliset luottomarkkinat eivät silti olleet yksi yhtenäinen kokonaisuus, kuten esimerkiksi keskieurooppalaisia luottomarkkinoita tu…
Kansakunnan nykykuvat : narratiivinen analyysi suomalaisesta maisemasta kansallisena visuaalisena tilana
2010
Tutkielmassa tarkastellaan, miten kansallisesti määrittyneet, perinteiset suomalaisen maiseman visuaalisen esittämisen tavat suhteutuvat visuaalisiin representaatioihin nykysuomalaisista maisemista, ja millä tavoin nykysuomalaisten maisemien visuaalisen esittämisen tapa eroaa niistä. Lisäksi pohditaan, millaista voisi olla suomalaisen maiseman kansallinen visuaalinen esittäminen nykypäivän lähtökohdista. Kysymystä innoittaa pohdinta siitä, että suomalaisen maiseman kansalliset visuaalisen esittämisen tavat vastaavat etenkin nykyisin harvoin Suomea todellisena visuaalisena ympäristönä, ja että niitä suomalaisen kansakunnan kuvittajina kyseenalaistetaan harvoin. Tutkimusaineistona käytetään s…

Life-Space Mobility in Parkinson's Disease: Associations with Motor and Non-Motor Symptoms.
2019
Background To describe life-space mobility and explore associations of motor and non-motor symptoms with life-space mobility in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Methods About 164 community-dwelling persons with PD (mean age 71.6 years, 64.6% men) received a postal survey and a subsequent home visit. Motor assessments included perceived walking difficulties (Walk-12G), mobility (Timed Up and Go test), motor symptoms (UPDRS-III), and freezing of gait (item 3, FOG-Qsa). Non-motor symptoms included depressive symptoms (GDS-15), pain, fatigue (NHP-EN), and global cognition (MoCA). Life-space mobility was assessed with the life-space assessment (LSA). Calculations included composite score (r…
Supervised Physical Training Enhances Muscle Strength but Not Muscle Mass in Prostate Cancer Patients Undergoing Androgen Deprivation Therapy: A Syst…
2019
Introduction: Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is considered the basic treatment for advanced prostate cancer, but it is highly associated with detrimental changes in muscle mass and muscle strength. The aim of this meta-analysis was to investigate the effects of supervised physical training on lean mass and muscle strength in prostate cancer patients undergoing ADT. Methods: A systematic literature search was performed using MEDLINE, Embase, and ScienceDirect until October 2018. Only studies that examined both muscle mass and strength in prostate cancer patients undergoing ADT were included. Outcomes of interest were changes in lean body mass (surrogate for muscle mass) as well as upper …
The CDIO Syllabus 3.0 - An Updated Statement of Goals
2022
The CDIO Initiative is going through a process of reconsidering and updating the CDIO approach for engineering education development. Previous work resulted in substantial updates of the twelve CDIO standards and the introduction of “optional” CDIO standards. This paper reports on a similar review and update of the CDIO Syllabus to version 3.0. It has been developed by a working group consisting of four sub-groups and iterated and refined guided by feedback from the whole CDIO community. There are mainly three external drivers that 18 Proceedings of the 18th International CDIO Conference, hosted by Reykjavik University, Reykjavik Iceland, June 13-15, 2022. motivate the changes: sustainabili…
Effectiveness of Distance Technology in Promoting Physical Activity in Cardiovascular Disease Rehabilitation : Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial, A…
2021
BackgroundPhysical activity is beneficial for cardiovascular rehabilitation. Digitalization suggests using technology in the promotion of physical activity and lifestyle changes. The effectiveness of distance technology interventions has previously been found to be similar to that of conventional treatment, but the added value of the technology has not been frequently studied. ObjectiveThe aim of this pilot study was to investigate whether additional distance technology intervention is more effective in promoting physical activity than non-technology–based treatment in 12 months of cardiac rehabilitation. MethodsThe cardiovascular disease rehabilitation intervention consisted of three 5-day…
A Smartphone App to Promote Healthy Weight Gain, Diet, and Physical Activity During Pregnancy (HealthyMoms): Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Tri…
2019
BACKGROUND: Excessive gestational weight gain is common and associated with adverse outcomes both in the short and long term. Although traditional lifestyle-based interventions have shown to mitigate excess gestational weight gain, little is known about whether mobile Health (mHealth) apps can promote healthy weight gain, diet, and physical activity during pregnancy. OBJECTIVE: The primary aim of the HealthyMoms trial is to determine the effectiveness of a smartphone app (HealthyMoms) for mitigating excess gestational weight gain during pregnancy. Secondary aims are to determine the effectiveness of the app on dietary habits, physical activity, body fatness, and glycemia during pregnancy. M…
Effects of a Home‐Based Physical Rehabilitation Program on Tibial Bone Structure, Density, and Strength After Hip Fracture: A Secondary Analysis of a…
2019
Abstract Weight‐bearing physical activity may decrease or prevent bone deterioration after hip fracture. This study investigated the effects of a home‐based physical rehabilitation program on tibial bone traits in older hip fracture patients. A population‐based clinical sample of men and women operated for hip fracture (mean age 80 years, 78% women) was randomly assigned into an intervention (n = 40) and a standard care control group (n = 41) on average 10 weeks postfracture. The intervention group participated in a 12‐month home‐based rehabilitation intervention, including evaluation and modification of environmental hazards, guidance for safe walking, nonpharmacological pain management, m…
