The Problems of Ageing
I present a brief overview of observational, modeling and theoretical issues related to ageing calculations based on spectral steepening. These include problems such as inhomogeneous magnetic fields, diffusion of relativistic particles, confusion from multiple particle populations and particle acceleration. Although some of the effects are only of order unity, others call into question the enti...
متن کاملThe Problems of Ageing
present, and perchance his future-not so much as an individual as in his relationships to society. To the imaginative-and the unimaginative have no business with this text whatever-one need cite only a few of the chapter headings: "The Rise of the City," "The Ties that Bind," "Slavery," "The Tributary Peoples," "The Fate of the Primitives," to suggest fields of fascination. The analogies drawn ...
متن کاملFiber-optic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing to assess swallowing outcomes as a function of head position in a normal population
BACKGROUND Head position practice has been shown to influence pill-swallowing ability, but the impact of head position on measures of swallowing outcomes has not yet been studied with fiber-optic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). The primary purpose of this study was to determine whether head position impacts penetration-aspiration scale scores and/or post-swallow pharyngeal residue a...
متن کاملThe Ageing Population
The process of population ageing that has been occurring in Sweden can be expected to continue during the coming decades, the population pyramid will become increasingly rectangular, and possibly even demonstrate a shrinking base. This will lead to increasing challenges in terms of financing pensions, elderly care and healthcare. These problems will continue for at least the next 30 years with ...
متن کاملOral Health and Swallowing Problems
Oral health impacts systemic health. Therefore, oral care is an important consideration in maintaining quality of life (QOL). Previously, maintenance and improvement of oral hygiene was considered essential for achieving oral health. In addition to oral hygiene, oral care in terms of oral function is now considered to maintain QOL. Ingestion of exogenous nutrients via the oral cavity is fundame...
