    Author : Helena Engström; [2023]
    Keywords : Speech breathing; body position; voice quality; respiratory inductance plethysmography; accelerometer; Talandning; kroppsposition; röstkvalité; respiratory inductance plethysmography; accelerometer;

    Abstract : This study investigates how body position affects the relative contribution of the rib cage to speech breathing and voice quality. The frequently used upright and supine body positions are expanded with the addition of an inverted position as a condition. READ MORE

  3. 2. Difference in general behaviour and social interactions of young Yorkshire gilts in different social environments

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Linda Marie Hannius; [2019]
    Keywords : Swedish Yorkshire; Dutch Yorkshire; behaviour; social interactions; social environment;

    Abstract : In Sweden, there was a switch of breeding material for pigs in year 2012 where Swedish producers were introduced to the Dutch Yorkshire (DY) instead of the Swedish Yorkshire (SY). Gestating sows have, in Sweden, been kept in group housing since the 1980s while DY gilts on the contrary have been kept in individual stalls. READ MORE

  4. 3. Difference in health and behaviour between two different pig line crosses

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

    Author : Jessica Vahlberg; [2019]
    Keywords : Swedish Yorkshire; Dutch Yorkshire; social interactions; behaviour; health;

    Abstract : The most common housing system within the European Union for gestating sows and gilts have for many years been individual stalls while Sweden on the contrary has a long history, since the end of the 1980s, of group housing. The switch of breeding material in the beginning of the 2000ies in Sweden resulted in the end of breeding of the Swedish Yorkshire (SY), and instead the Dutch Yorkshire (ZY) was introduced to Swedish pig producers.

    Author : Madelene Holmgren; [2016]
    Keywords : Jugular vein; Venous pressure; Positive airway pressure; Cross sectional area; Posture; Ultrasound; Halsven; Ventryck; Positivt luftvägstryck; Tvärsnittsarea; Kroppsposition; Ultraljud;

    Abstract : Knowledge about biomechanical properties of veins is of importance for understanding the physiologyof the venous system. Specifically for this thesis there is a motivation based on an idea of how to usebiomechanics of the vein in the development of new non-invasive measurement techniques for assessingthe pressure in the brain.
