  4. 12. Head kinematics in car–pedestrian crashes: The influence of sliding, spine bending, elbow and shoulder impacts

    Author : Ruth Paas; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Human Body Model; shoulder; kinematics; pedestrian; THUMS; spine; PMHS; head;

    Abstract : In vehicle–pedestrian crashes, head injuries account for an overwhelming percentage of all severe and fatal injuries. These injuries are caused by the linear acceleration and rotation of the head. To mitigate head injuries, tools such as Human Body Models (HBMs) are used in the development and evaluation of pedestrian safety systems. READ MORE

  5. 13. The type-I acyl-CoA thioesterase/acyltransferase gene family : linking structure to function

    Author : James O'Byrne; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Type-I acyl-CoA thioesterase acyltransferase gene family; structure function relationship; nueleophilic elbow; esterase transferase activity;

    Abstract : Acyl-CoA thioesterases hydrolyse acyl-CoAs to non-esterified fatty acids and coenzyme A (CoASH), thereby regulating intracellular levels of these compounds. We have recently identified and initiated characterisation of a novel, unique gene family of acyl-CoA thioesterases/acyltransferases, called the Type-I acyl-CoA thioesterase/acyltransferase gene family.

  6. 14. Proximal and distal humeral fractures. Outcome of primary arthroplasty

    Author : Eythor Örn Jonsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Fracture; Arthroplasty; Proximal humeral fracture; Distal humeral fracture; Randomized controlled trial; Assessment of outcome; Patient-reported outcome measure;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with both proximal humeral fractures and elbow injuries, especially distal humeral fractures. The main focus is difficult fractures in the elderly. Few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are available. If the joint surface is considerably affected (e. READ MORE

  7. 15. Ergonomic factors and musculoskeletal pain in sonographers

    Author : Jenny Gremark Simonsen; Avdelningen för arbets- och miljömedicin; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Sonographers have a high risk of musculoskeletal disorders. Sonography involves strenuous postures in the neck and upper limbs, and is visually demanding. Echocardiography is especially challenging, with static postures and monotonous movements. READ MORE
