1. Using GIS and satellite data to assess access of green area for children living in growing cities
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Urban green space (UGS) refers to open spaces within an urban context that are filled with greenery and nature. These can range from very small vegetation to expansive park areas. The common denominator is that they have proven to be beneficial for human health and well-being. Access to green spaces is also important for children. LÄS MER
2. A WALK IN THE PARK: Associations between urban green spaces, social cohesion, and self-rated health in Swedish adults
Master-uppsats, Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för hälsa, vård och välfärdSammanfattning : Background: Urban green spaces (UGS) have been shown to benefit both social cohesion and health outcomes. A new framework by Jennings and Bamkole (2019) suggests that social cohesion might act as a social determinant of health mediating the health benefits provided by UGS. LÄS MER
3. Assessing the health potential of urban green space in an urban planning and design context : A comparative case study in the city of Stockholm on differences in accessibility, quality, and inclusivity
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : Urban green spaces (UGS) can produce health-improving (salutogenic) and equigenic effects that narrow the health gap between disadvantaged and affluent neighbourhoods. Yet, the magnitude of such effects relies on the quality of a UGS. Various studies have found UGS quality to be worse in low-income neighbourhoods. LÄS MER
4. An analysis of the relationships between urban green space and public health : A combination of GIS-based analysis and regression models
Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för temaSammanfattning : Public health is an essential urban issue attracting the increasing attention of scholars and decision-makers while urban planning is an important mechanism to promote health since mounting evidence has shown the planning elements, such as urban green spaces (UGS), could have a positive influence. In previous literature, the studies concerning the impacts of UGSs can be divided into two aspects: the first is to reveal the relationships between UGSs and health using statistical models based on self-reported data, while the second is to take their relationships as presumption and visualize the spatial distributions of UGSs in a geographical information system (GIS) to indicate the existence of health inequalities.

5. Outcome of Ultrasound Guided Sclerosis in Treatment of Chronic Achilles Tendinopathy
Magister-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kvinnors och barns hälsaSammanfattning : Introduction: Chronic Achilles Tendinopathy (CAT) is a common sports injury that affects a substantial portion of the population. One of the clinical treatments of CAT is ultrasound guided sclerosis (UGS), the efficacy of which is both supported and contested in a numberof previous reports. LÄS MER
