Videnskabelig Årsrapport 2005 05 Videnskabelig årsrapport København Maastricht Rom Rigshospitalet er Danmarks absolut største forskningsproducerende hospital. Knap halvdelen af al forskning i den kommende Region Hovedstaden udgår fra Rigshospitalet. Her leverede læger, molekylærbiologer, fysikere, biokemikere og andre forskere igen i 2005 en stor videnskabelig produktion, et stigende antal ph.d.- og dr.med.-grader – samt et antal publikationer i anerkendte internationale tidsskrifter. www.rigshospitalet.dk Forord Rigshospitalet er Danmarks absolut største forskningsproducerende Forskning i international topklasse hospital.

    Wim hof the way of the iceman pdf Continue Science has now proven that the legendary Vim-Hof method of breathing control and cold training can significantly boost energy levels, improve circulation, reduce stress, strengthen the immune system, strengthen the body and successfully fight many diseases. While Wim Hoff himself ran marathons at -30 C in shorts, swam hundreds of meters under the ice, sat in a tank of ice for 90 minutes without changing his core temperature and boosted his metabolism by more than 300%, and Iceman's method documents how anyone can use Wim's methods to transform their health and strength, quickly and safely. After teaching specialized breathing techniques to SLYS for years, helping them focus, stay warm in the cold ocean and get concentrated in combat, I can attest to the health and strength of Wim Hoff's methods. Wim Hof is providing great service with his new book The Way of the Snowman by bringing breathing, training, simple, strong health practices into mainstream consciousness. - Mark Divine, The U.S. Navy SEAL (ret), founder of SEALFIT, the best- selling author of The Unbeaten Mind and seal method I'm constantly looking for ways to expand my mind, body and soul - Wim Hoff and The Iceman Road have done just that!

  • THE NEW MEDICAL MODEL: CHRONIC DISEASE and EVIDENCE-BASED MEDICINE
    THE NEW MEDICAL MODEL: CHRONIC DISEASE and EVIDENCE-BASED MEDICINE by Jonathan Fuller A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department: Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Jonathan Fuller (2016) The New Medical Model: Chronic Disease and Evidence-Based Medicine Jonathan Fuller Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto 2016 Abstract In the traditional medical model, physicians cure acute diseases using knowledge from the basic biomedical sciences. With the rise of chronic disease and evidence-based medicine (EBM) in the second half of the Twentieth Century, ‘the new medical model’ emerged. In the new medical model, physicians prevent or manage chronic diseases using the principles of EBM. Chronic diseases and EBM have created a host of daunting problems for modern medicine. In this thesis dissertation, my Central Aim is a philosophical analysis of chronic disease and of EBM, especially concerning treatment and prevention. I also maintain a Central Thesis: many practical problems in chronic disease care and in EBM are intimately connected to conceptual, metaphysical and epistemic problems. The practical problems include: reductionism; fractured care; multifactorialism; the growing burden of chronic diseases; treatment effect heterogeneity, treatment futility and treatment harm; cookbook medicine; the tyranny of aggregate outcomes; RCT worship; unrepresentative trials; and multimorbidity. The philosophical problems I explore are the following. In Chapter 2, I examine the nature of chronic diseases and advance a metaphysical account in which chronic diseases are bodily properties. In Chapter 3, I re-examine existing models of disease classification and argue for a new descriptive model (the ‘constitutive model’) as well as a ii new guiding principle for disease prevention (‘the monomechanism ideal’).

The topic of the seminar was “Breathwork and Weight Loss.” But as you will soon discover, it was about much more than that.

  • Superhuman Diver Teams up with Health-Tech Startup to Battle Corona
    Copenhagen, march 28th 2020 Superhuman diver teams up with health-tech startup to battle Corona A number of recognized doctors and specialists are advocating that respiratory training can ease the impact of Covid-19. Danish health tech company Airofit and acclaimed diver and respiratory trainer, Stig Severinsen are joining forces to help chronic patients and elderly while trying to ease the strain on the healthcare system. Renowned professor of respiratory physiology, Alison K. McConnell has researched the benefits of respiratory muscle training. According to her, it is possible that respiratory training might increase the chance of surviving Covid-19 for elderly and vulnerable patients. At the same time, respiratory training in the group may ease the pressure on intensive care capacity and the need for ventilators in particular. “Based on an abundance of existing research into the benefits of respiratory muscle training for patients with lung and/or heart disease, it is reasonable to assume that strengthening your breathing muscles now, makes it less likely you would require intensive care (mechanical ventilation) if/when you become infected with COVID-19. This would mean a reduction in the demand for mechanical ventilation within the healthcare system, freeing-up a scarce resource. More importantly for you, not requiring mechanical ventilation makes it much less likely that you would not survive COVID-19 infection.”, says Professor Alison K. McConnell Airofit is a Danish health tech start-up who manufactures and sell advanced devices for respiratory training. Stig Åvall Severinsen, MSc Biology & PhD Medicine, 4x Freediving World Champion, holds a number of Guinness World Records and was chosen “The Ultimate Superhuman” by the Discovery Channel.
