  1. 1. Gestational Weight Gain : Implications of an Antenatal Lifestyle Intervention

    Author : Ann-Kristin Rönnberg; Kerstin Nilsson; Ulf Hanson; Marie Blomberg; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; gestational weight gain; maternal health; pregnancy; prevention of obesity; lifestyle intervention; childhood obesity; Kirurgi; Surgery;

    Abstract : Background: Excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) is common in developed countries and is associated with an increased risk of maternal and offspring morbidity. Evidence regarding efficacy and safety of antenatal lifestyle intervention is limited in terms of both systematic reviews and original trials. READ MORE

    Abstract : Deploying wind power to a larger extent is one solution to reduce negative environmental impacts of electric power supply. However, various challenges are connected with increasing wind power penetration levels. READ MORE

  4. 4. An epidemiological perspective on heart and lung weight in cardiac and intoxication deaths

    Author : Torfinn Beer; Carl Johan Wingren; Anders Eriksson; Britt-Marie Stålnacke; Kimberly Molina; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; heart weight; lung weight; organ weight; autopsy; forensic pathology; Bayesian analysis; cardiac hypertrophy; fatal intoxication; Forensic Medicine; rättsmedicin;

    Abstract : The main purpose of a medico-legal autopsy is to determine the cause and manner of death. A forensic pathologist makes assessments of this using several sources of information, one of which is the discrepancy between measured organ weight and reference values. READ MORE

  5. 5. Cost/Weight Optimization of Aircraft Structures

    Author : Markus Kaufmann; Dan Zenkert; Frédéric Lani; KTH; []
    Keywords : Cost Weight Optimization; Weight Penalty; Direct Operating Cost; Composite Structures; Non-destructive testing; Finite element analysis FEA ; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Composite structures can lower the weight of an airliner significantly. The increased production cost, however, requires the application of cost-effective design strategies. Hence, a comparative value is required which is used for the evaluation of a design solution in terms of cost and weight. READ MORE
