American Heart Association’s Cardiovascular Health Metrics and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Mortality Among a Middle-aged Male Scandinavian Populat…
2019
Background: The burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD) prompted the American Heart Association to develop a cardiovascular health (CVH) metric as a measure to assess the cardiovascular status of the population. We aimed to assess the association between CVH scores and the risk of CVD mortality among a middle-aged Finnish population. Methods: We employed the prospective population-based Kuopio Ischemic Heart Disease cohort study comprising of middle-aged men (42–60 years). CVH scores were computed among 2607 participants at baseline and categorized as optimum (0–4), average (5–9), or inadequate (10–14) CVH. Multivariate cox regression models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HR) and 9…
Mid-career work patterns and physical and mental functioning at age 60-64: evidence from the 1946 British birth cohort.
2016
Background: Previous studies of the associations between unemployment and health have primarily focused on mental health and long-term associations have not often been explored. This study investigated if discontinuous employment in mid-career was related to self-reported physical and mental functioning at age 60–64 years. Methods: Data come from the Medical Research Council National Survey of Health and Development, a British cohort that has been followed-up since birth in 1946. A total of 2061 study members had data available on mid-career employment patterns and physical and mental functioning assessed using the Short Form 36 questionnaire at age 60–64. Employment patterns in mid-career …
CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE RISKS AND FACTORS INFLUENCING THEM AMONG MEDICAL COLLEGE STUDENTS
2016
The aim of the study is to identify the CVD risks among medical college students associating them to their lifestyle. It should be noted that cardiovascular diseases also affect young people, which students are also. Information obtained during research is necessary for prospective medical staff to acknowledge their cardiovascular health and its influencing factors, as well as for college lecturers to make changes in study programs. The theoretical part of the research discusses various CVD risk determination methods, as well as lifestyle`s impact on cardiovascular health. The empirical part of the research contains information about ten years CVD risk among students, using two Framingham m…
Normative scores for the Timed UpGo in a Spanish sample of community-dweller adults with preserved functionality.
2021
Our aim was to calculate the ‘Timed Up & Go’ (TUG) normative scores in a Spanish sample composed of functional older adults. The TUG test provides a measure of global ambulation skills and its total score has been successfully related with functionality and other important health variables in older adults. Reliable norms are needed for adults 50 years and older that allow the early identification and intervention in motor disturbances. The study was carried out with adults from Galicia and Valencia living in the community. A total of 314 Spanish community-living participants, aged from 50 to 90 years and functionality preserved were assessed through the implementation of a cross-sectional d…
Changes in mode of transportation to work or school from pre-pregnancy to early pregnancy in the Norwegian Fit for Delivery study
2015
Objective To describe changes in mode of transportation to work or school from pre-pregnancy to early pregnancy, to describe levels of physical activity related to mode of transportation to work or school, and to examine associations between changes in mode of transportation to work or school and educational level, body mass index (BMI) and age. Methods Between September 2009 and February 2013, 575 healthy pregnant nulliparous women were included into the Norwegian Fit for Delivery (NFFD) trial. At inclusion they reported their current and their pre-pregnancy mode of transportation to work or school. Data were analysed by multilevel mixed models with dichotomized modes of transportation as …
182 Does emergency physician prehospital management improve outcome of severe blunt trauma?
2010
Severe blunt traumas are a leading cause of premature death and handicap. The benefit for the patient of pre-hospital management by emergency physicians remains under debate because of possible delayed hospital admission. This study aimed at comparing the impact of basic life support (BLS) performed by fire brigades with advanced life support (ALS) performed by SMUR (Service Mobile d9Urgences et de Reanimation) physicians, on 30-day mortality. The FIRST study (French Intensive Care Recorded Severe Trauma) is a French observational multicentric study designed in order to describe the modalities of severe blunt trauma management. The study population was composed of trauma patients over 18 ye…

Post-fit BDT distributions in the $Z\to \ell\ell$ CR for the $\tau_{\mathrm{lep}}\tau_{\mathrm{lep}}$ SF analysis channel. The size of the combined statistical, experimental, and theoretical uncertainties is given. The exact value of the $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ cut on the leptons depends on the trigger.

Post-fit BDT distributions after the VBF event selection for the $\tau_{\mathrm{lep}}\tau_{\mathrm{had}}$ analysis channel. The VBF signal is shown for $\mu = 0.73$ and $\tilde d = -0.01$. ''Other bkg'' denotes all background contributions not listed explicitly in the legend. The size of the combined statistical, experimental, and theoretical uncertainties is given. The exact value of the $p_{\mathrm{T}}$ cut on the leading lepton depends on the trigger.
