(University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, 2022)The aims of this project were: 1) to provide data regarding the physical abilities of Icelandic male handball players, by using 9+ screening test. 2) to register prevalence of overuse problems in the knee, low-back and dominant shoulder and to investigate ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Faculty of Physical Sciences, 2022-06-27)The research described in this thesis is part of a network project involving the growth of metal nanostructures on surfaces of solids, a Horizon 2020 project titled ELENA. The part of the project described here involved the use of various approaches ...
-
(University of Iceland, School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Odontology, 2022-06-21)Background: Good oral health is fundamental for general health, wellbeing and quality of life for all age groups. Little information exists on the oral health of older adults living in Icelandic nursing homes and how they perceive their oral health and ...
