While most of the effort concerned with protection against cold exposure has involved finding ways of decreasing heat loss by improving insulation some attempts have been made in finding ways of improving cold tolerance by modifying the thermoregulatory response to cold. The main strategies that have been used are: - thermal acclimation, physical exercise, dietary enhancement of thermogenesis, pharmacological enhancement of thermogenesis and manipulation of thermoregulatory set-point. This paper briefly reviews the success of these strategies. While none of the strategies examined have resulted in concrete methods which are routinely used to improve cold tolerance, it is concluded that the pharmacological enhancement of cold thermogenesis using ephedrine in combination with methylxanthine represents the most promising method for delaying the onset of hypothermia in humans.</p>","PeriodicalId":77012,"journal":{"name":"Arctic medical research","volume":"54 Suppl 2 ","pages":"70-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19866329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data are based on participant observation, interviews (Schaefer's scale: school-aged children's perceptions of their parents, N = 64; and Block's Q-sorting method for their parents; interviews with almost all the adult Skolts; N approximately 500;) (1). The basic studies of the research project was carried out in 1967-74, and changes in socialization have been followed up in several phases later on. Comparisons are drawn with the majority culture of Northern Finland (61 children and their parents). Changes in ecology, economics and accultration have modified the roles of adult Skolts, affecting the men and women differently, and having repercussions for their paternal and maternal aspirations, power and influence. The changes were less confusing for the Skolt women than for the men whose role underwent a radical shift. Under these circumstances the wife was the head of the family, her responsibilities, power and influence increased. The developmental process in socialization has been characterized by a search for balance between the traditional life style and attitudes and the challenges and conflicts that arise from the culture and education of the majority.</p>","PeriodicalId":77012,"journal":{"name":"Arctic medical research","volume":"54 Suppl 1 ","pages":"33-41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18643979","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the extremities this will result in a drastic reduction of blood flow, resulting in a so called \"physiological amputation\" with extremity cooling towards ambient temperature. The dexterity decrease observed with cold extremities is most likely caused by cooling of muscles and joints, and not by effects on receptors, nerve conduction or central effects. It is shown, that dexterity decreases can be described in terms of wind chill equivalent temperature and exposure time for a certain clothing and work configuration. Further, the risk of skin freezing and reduced dexterity due to touching cold objects can be described using the contact coefficient of the respective material and the contact time. This risk is modulated by metabolic rate and hand protection (gloves). Gloves drastically reduce cooling speed and freezing risk, but they also cause increased risks due to reduced dexterity due to glove thickness.

Cervical cancer comprised 15% of all cancers in Canadian Inuit women from 1969-1988. The age standardized incidence for invasive cervical cancer in Canadian Inuit women is 3.1 times the rate in the general Canadian population. Management of CIN in women of remote Arctic regions has traditionally required multiple visits to specialized medical centres for diagnosis, therapy and follow-up. Such centralized care requires separation of women from their families, resulting in significant medical, emotional and economic costs for the patient, her family and community. In the Canadian Central Arctic, a program for the diagnosis and therapy of CIN has been established using colposcopy with loop electrosurgery, performed by a trained local family practitioner and visiting gynecologist. Early program evaluation has indicated reduction in medical expenditures due to travel costs, minimal procedure-related morbidity and discomfort, and improved patient satisfaction associated with reduced separation from family and community. It is hoped that the program design, which harnesses technology in order to provide improved care closer to home, will be applicable to other Circumpolar regions.</p>","PeriodicalId":77012,"journal":{"name":"Arctic medical research","volume":"54 Suppl 1 ","pages":"117-21"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18643975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the next months the baby begins to expect the mother to fulfil it's wishes and still the mother adapts to and supports the baby's expanding capacities and needs. A beginning sense of self and not-self develops. At 10-12 months the infant is able to move around trying to examine everything within range. At this age the infant senses that there exist other wills and minds than it's own. The child looks at the mother and reads her expressions for \"yes\", \"no\", and \"maybe\". The mother can stop or encourage her child by verbal and body signals. At 12-18 months the child has developed a secure attachment apt to protect the child against later adversities. The development during the first year of life may be seriously disturbed if the mother cannot adapt to and support the baby's signals and needs.
