  2. 1. Structural genomic variation in human disease

    Author : Maria Pettersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Structural variants (SVs) are physical changes in the structure of chromosomes and include both unbalanced copy number variants (CNVs) and balanced events (translocations, inversions and insertions). Many SVs constitute benign background variation and are found frequently in healthy individuals. READ MORE

  4. 2. Production Ergonomics Evaluation – Needs, Procedures and Digital Human Modeling Tools

    Author : Cecilia Berlin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Digital Human Modeling; Virtual Tools; Prevention; Time; Musculo-Skeletal Disorders; Cumulative; Production Ergonomics; DHM;

    Abstract : In production systems, human operators may be at risk for developing work-relatedmusculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), resulting in pain, inability to work and high costs. Anincreasingly capable tool for identifying MSD risks early in the production designprocess are Digital Human Models (DHMs), although their built-in analysis tools are ingreat need of development regarding how they address time-related aspects of loadexposure.

    Abstract : In production systems, human operators may be at risk for developing work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), resulting in pain, inability to work and high costs. An increasingly capable tool for identifying MSD risks early in the production design process are Digital Human Models (DHMs), although their built-in analysis tools are in great need of development regarding how they address time-related aspects of load exposure.

    Author : Jia-Li Luo; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : glutathione; cysteine; skeletal muscle; surgical trauma; critical illness; human. ISBN;

    Abstract : Glutathione Metabolism of Human Skeletal Muscle in Surgical Trauma Jia-Li Luo Dissertation from the Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care, Huddinge University Hospital, KARO Institution, Karolinska Institutet. Stockholm, Sweden In man, muscle tissue serves as a protein reservoir which is mobilized to meet the specific metabolic needs associated with various catabolic conditions, such as surgical trauma and critical illness.

  7. 5. Distribution, total number and size of different types of fibres in male and female skeletal muscles : an enzyme histochemical study of whole muscle cross-sections

    Author : Karin Henriksson-Larsén; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : Muscle biopsy; human; enzyme histochemistry;

    Abstract : In order to investigate the total number, relative proportions, size variations and distribution patterns of fibres of different types in human skeletal muscles, a technique was developed which allows whole muscle cross-sections to be collected and stained enzyme histochemically. Necropsy material was obtained from m. tibialis anterior and m. READ MORE
