Abstract

BackgroundInsufficient data exist on population-based trends in morbidity and mortality to determine the success of prevention strategies and improvements in health care delivery in stroke. The aim of this study was to determine trends in incidence and outcome (1-year mortality, 28-day case-fatality) in relation to management and risk factors for stroke in the multi-ethnic population of Auckland, New Zealand (NZ) over 30-years.MethodsFour stroke incidence population-based register studies were undertaken in adult residents (aged ≥15 years) of Auckland NZ in 1981-1982, 1991-1992, 2002-2003 and 2011-2012. All used standard World Health Organization (WHO) diagnostic criteria and multiple overlapping sources of case-ascertainment for hospitalised and non-hospitalised, fatal and non-fatal, new stroke events. Ethnicity was consistently self-identified into four major groups. Crude and age-adjusted (WHO world population standard) annual incidence and mortality with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated per 100,000 people, assuming a Poisson distribution.Results5400 new stroke patients were registered in four 12 month recruitment phases over the 30-year study period; 79% were NZ/European, 6% Māori, 8% Pacific people, and 7% were of Asian or other origin. Overall stroke incidence and 1-year mortality decreased by 23% (95% CI 5%-31%) and 62% (95% CI 36%-86%), respectively, from 1981 to 2012. Whilst stroke incidence and mortality declined across all groups in NZ from 1991, Māori and Pacific groups had the slowest rate of decline and continue to experience stroke at a significantly younger age (mean ages 60 and 62 years, respectively) compared with NZ/Europeans (mean age 75 years). There was also a decline in 28-day stroke case fatality (overall by 14%, 95% CI 11%-17%) across all ethnic groups from 1981 to 2012. However, there were significant increases in the frequencies of pre-morbid hypertension, myocardial infarction, and diabetes mellitus, but a reduction in frequency of current smoking among stroke patients.ConclusionsIn this unique temporal series of studies spanning 30 years, stroke incidence, early case-fatality and 1-year mortality have declined, but ethnic disparities in risk and outcome for stroke persisted suggesting that primary stroke prevention remains crucial to reducing the burden of this disease.

5. Equestrian Jacket, Comfortable in the stable

Author

Witt, Emma and Witt, Emma

Abstract

This project is about designing outerwear for equestrians. Jackets used in stables are often just like other jackets, and not optimized for the context. Being around horses includes needs, safety risks and movements that are irrelevant in most other situations. The product is a garment design that is adapted to the objects and activities that equestrians face on a daily basis. Integrated soft cover for hands and neck, a strategically placed phone pocket and a large, easy to clean, pocket to leave the hands able to act. Weather resistant material choices with patches of reflective fabric in a style that is a balance of classic and sporty. With this, the user can safely and comfortably perform their daily routine in caring.

Abstract

Denna rapport skrevs som en del av kursen TDDD96 Kandidatprojekt i Programvaruutveckling. Den dokumenterar arbetet med projektet Matbit: en applikation vars syfte var att samla webbutikerna från de största matvarukedjorna i Sverige i en och samma app för enklare jämförelse av varor. Projektgruppens arbete var specifikt inriktat på att dölja de webbsidor som användaren slussades till när hen valde att beställa hem sin varukorg och i stället visa upp ett eget gränssnitt i appen, medan kommunikationen med de faktiska webbsidorna skedde i bakgrunden. Resultatet av arbetet blev en första version av ett gränssnitt med nästintill helt fungerande kommunikation med Coop. Rapporten inleds med en introduktion till projektet och dess syfte, följt av bakgrund hos både kunden och projektgruppen. Sedan följer teoretisk bakgrund och en genomgång av de metoder som låg till grund för projektarbetet. Vidare presenteras resultatet av projektarbetet med en diskussion och slutsatser. Slutligen innehåller rapporten individuella delar skrivna av projektdeltagarna om ett valfritt ämne kopplat till projektet eller dess arbetsmetoder.

Author

Witt, Emma and Witt, Emma

Abstract

The topic of environmental issues, in relation to clothing consumption, was researched with the intention of contributing to the lessening of its negative effects. The conclusion was that an extended amount of use would result in less need for new production, where most of the emissions come from, thus making the system more efficient resource-wise. To achieve this the product designed is the outline of a business concept focusing on extending the use of discarded clothes by making them more desirable. This project tests and motivates the types of practises that could make such a business ethical and successful. This is done by making small scale experiments and looking into the need, system and marketing

Abstract

Rationale Stroke is a major cause of death and disability worldwide, yet 80% of strokes can be prevented through modifications of risk factors and lifestyle and by medication. While management strategies for primary stroke prevention in high cardiovascular disease risk individuals are well established, they are underutilized and existing practice of primary stroke prevention are inadequate. Behavioral interventions are emerging as highly promising strategies to improve cardiovascular disease risk factor management. Health Wellness Coaching is an innovative, patient-focused and cost-effective, multidimensional psychological intervention designed to motivate participants to adhere to recommended medication and lifestyle changes and has been shown to improve health and enhance well-being. Aims and/or hypothesis To determine the effectiveness of Health Wellness Coaching for primary stroke prevention in an ethnically diverse sample including Māori, Pacific Island, New Zealand European and Asian participants. Design A parallel, prospective, randomized, open-treatment, single-blinded end-point trial. Participants include 320 adults with absolute five-year cardiovascular disease risk ≥ 10%, calculated using the PREDICT web-based clinical tool. Randomization will be to Health Wellness Coaching or usual care groups. Participants randomized to Health Wellness Coaching will receive 15 coaching sessions over nine months. Study outcomes A substantial relative risk reduction of five-year cardiovascular disease risk at nine months post-randomization, which is defined as 10% relative risk reduction among those at moderate five-year cardiovascular disease risk (10–15%) and 25% among those at high risk (>15%). Discussion This clinical trial will determine whether Health Wellness Coaching is an effective intervention for reducing modifiable risk factors, and hence decrease the risk of stroke and cardiovascular disease.

Abstract

Headwater stream systems are important components of the overall hydrologic system. Forestry best management practices (BMP) are effective at minimizing non point source pollution from forest harvesting activities. Streamside management zones (SMZ) are one BMP used to protect surface water quality by maintaining shade near streams, filtering runoff, and minimizing soil disturbance near streams. An evaluation of BMP effectiveness on the watershed scale was conducted at the University of Kentucky’s Robinson Forest. Six watersheds were harvested using a two-age deferment harvest with one of three SMZ configurations applied to each watershed. Two unharvested watersheds served as controls. Treatment 1 was based on the current Kentucky Forest Practice Guidelines for Water Quality Management and included a 16.8 m SMZ with 50% canopy retention for perennial streams, a 7.6 m SMZ with no canopy retention for intermittent streams, and no SMZ or canopy retention for ephemeral streams with unimproved crossings. Treatment 2 also included a 16.8 m perennial SMZ but increased canopy retention to 100%, as well as a 7.6 m intermittent SMZ with 25% canopy retention, and retention of channel bank trees and use of improved crossings for ephemeral streams. Treatment 3 required a 33.5 m perennial SMZ with 100% canopy retention, a 16.8 intermittent SMZ with 25% canopy retention, and a 7.6 m ephemeral SMZ with retention of channel bank trees and use of improved crossings. Total suspended solids (TSS) concentration and turbidity was measured in storm samples in perennial and ephemeral streams, and in non-storm samples in perennial and intermittent streams. Nitrate-N, ammonium-N, and dissolved oxygen concentrations were also measured in non-storm samples in perennial and intermittent streams. Temperature and water level were recorded every 15 minutes for the duration of the study. Results showed that treatment 3 was able to maintain TSS concentrations and turbidity levels similar to those measured in unharvested control watersheds. Increases in nitrate-N and mean daily temperature were measured for all treatments. Ammonium-N and dissolved oxygen concentrations were not different from unharvested control watersheds for any treatment. Storm hydrograph separation did not result in consistent changes post-harvest for any treatment.
