    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Stress urinary incontinence; Internet; randomised controlled trial; pelvic floor muscle training; self care; quality of life; qualitative research; cost-utility analysis; validation study; Family Medicine; allmänmedicin;

    Abstract : Background Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is the leakage of urine when coughing, sneezing, or on exertion. It affects 10-35% of women, and can impair quality of life (QOL). First-line treatment is pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT). However, access barriers and embarrassment may prevent women from seeking care. READ MORE

  2. 2. Mid-Holocene mineral dust deposition in raised bogs in southern Sweden : Processes and links

    Author : Jenny Sjöström; Malin Kylander; Carl-Magnus Mörth; Bindler Richard; Lisa Belyea; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Paleodust; peat; geochemistry; mineralogy; REE; Holocene; peat accumulation rates; paleostorms; Marine Geology; maringeologi;

    Abstract : Atmospheric mineral dust is a key component of the climate system, which affects insolation, brings nutrients to marine and terrestrial ecosystems, and acts as a cloud condensation nuclei. To reconstruct past patterns in terrestrial dust deposition natural archives may be utilized, such as loess, dunes, lakes, and peat bogs. READ MORE

  3. 3. Reconstruction of Holocene atmospheric mineral dust deposition from raised peat bogs in south–central Sweden

    Author : Jenny Sjöström; Malin Kylander; Jonatan Klaminder; Martina Hättestrand; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mineral dust; paleodust; peat; Sweden; Holocene; mineralogy; XRD;

    Abstract : Atmospheric mineral dust plays a dynamic role in the climate system acting both as a forcing and a feedback mechanism. To date, the majority of paleodust studies have been conducted on marine sediments or polar ice cores, while terrestrial deposition has been less studied. READ MORE

  4. 4. A mobile app for self-management of urinary incontinence : treatment effect and user experience

    Author : Ina Asklund; Eva Samuelsson; Malin Sjöström; Katarina Hamberg; Siv Mørkved; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : stress urinary incontinence; pelvic floor muscle training; mHealth; self-management; randomized controlled trial; qualitative research; ansträngningsinkontinens; bäckenbottenträning; mHealth; egenbehandling; randomiserad kontrollerad studie; kvalitativ forskning; family medicine; allmänmedicin;

    Abstract : Background Urinary incontinence affects 25-45% of all women. The most common type is stress urinary incontinence, which is the leakage of urine on physical exertion. Pelvic floor muscle training is an effective first-line treatment for this condition but many women do not seek help from their ordinary health care service. READ MORE

  5. 5. The community hospital model in northern Sweden

    Author : Mante Hedman; Patrik Wennberg; Margareta Brännström; Kurt Boman; Malin Sjöström; Torsten Risør; Umeå universitet; []

    Abstract : Background: Rural community hospitals (CHs) are vital in delivering healthcare services in sparsely populated regions such as northern Sweden. In Sweden these facilities act as primary care units, staffed by general practitioners (GPs), nurses, and other healthcare professionals. They provide hospital beds, emergency care, and basic diagnostics. READ MORE
