- Healthcare professionals play a central role in health promotion and supporting patients to healthy lifestyles. The handbook FYSS (Physical Activity in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease), produced by Swedish Professional Associations for Physical Activity (YFA), can facilitate this work by providing evidence-based recommendations on how to prevent and treat common diseases and conditions using physical activity in a systematic way. This thematic issue presents a sample of the chapters included in the new FYSS 2021.

- OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the frequency content of the electroencephalogram (EEG) during recovery after a severe hypoxic insult in newborn piglets. METHODS: EEG was continuously monitored in nine newborn piglets exposed to a severe hypoxic period. Power spectra in five frequency bands were calculated using Fourier transformation. Spectral edge frequency 90 (SEF90) was defined as the frequency below which 90% of the power in the EEG was located. The piglets were divided into two groups; Group 1 represented piglets with some EEG recovery and Group 2 represented piglets without any EEG recovery. RESULTS: The recovery of the EEG in Group 1 had the same time course in all frequency bands. SEF90 indicates recovery earlier than the value of total power. But SEF90 also signals activity in the EEGs that were almost completely suppressed. When SEF90 was calculated during periods of periodic EEG activity during the very early phase of recovery, the values fell within the same range as during the control period. CONCLUSION: Spectral analysis of continuous EEG in newborn piglets exposed to very severe hypoxia showed that no specific frequency band of the EEG preceded the other ones during recovery. The results of the SEF90 measure, demonstrates the need for critical analysis of the raw EEG before any reliable estimation of cerebral function can be made.

Antibiotics should not be used to treat patients with back/leg pain

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This report is based on results from three research groups in Sweden (Fritzell et al), Denmark (Udby et al), and Norway (Bråten et al). The groups have conducted studies published in international journals in 2019 [8-10]. The results complement each other and strongly suggest that antibiotics, in the absence of clear signs of a clinically relevant infection (discitis/spondylitis), should not be used for back pain with or without leg pain. The Swedish study showed that bacteria found in the disc/vertebra during surgery are very likely due to contamination [8], the Danish study showed that patients with Modic Changes (MC) on MR in the long term were not associated with more back pain or functional impairment than in patients without MC [9], and the Norwegian study showed that antibiotics for residual back pain after previous disc herniation had no better clinical effect than placebo [10]. Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest threats to public health today and in the future.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Enhanced screening and efficient cancer treatments have led to a growing number of cancer survivors. In Sweden over 500 000 individuals have or have had cancer [1]. Cancer survivors can experience a wide range of disease and treatment related symptoms, that profoundly affect their health related quality of life. For example, women treated for breast cancer have on average 25 percent lower physical fitness compared to women without a cancer diagnosis. Recent evidence suggests that exercise has a positive effect on physical fitness, muscle strength, cancer related fatigue and quality of life among cancer survivors. An effective exercise prescription for health related outcomes in adult cancer survivors includes aerobic training at a moderate intensity for a total of 150 minutes per week. Adding resistance training two times per week has additional effects on muscle strength and physical functioning. Supervised exercise programs seem to be more effective than unsupervised or home based programs.
