In the electrical industry the 50 Hz electric and magnetic fields are often higher than in the average working environment. The electric and magnetic fields can be studied by measuring or by calculatingthe fields in the environment. For example, the electric field under a 400 kV power line is 1 to 10 kV/m, and the magnetic flux density is 1 to 15 µT. Electricand magnetic fields of a power line induce a weak electric field and electric currents in the exposed body. The average current density in a human being standing under a 400 kV line is 1 to 2 mA/m2. The aim of this study is to find out thepossible effects of short term exposure to electric and magnetic fields of electricity power transmission on workers' health, in particular the cardiovascular effects. The study consists of two parts; Experiment I: influence on extrasystoles, and Experiment II: influence on heart rate. In Experiment I two groups, 26 voluntary men (Group 1) and 27 transmission-line workers (Group 2), were measured. Their electrocardiogram (ECG) was recorded with an ambulatory recorder both in and outside the field. In Group 1 the fields were 1.7 to 4.9 kV/m and 1.1 to 7.1 pT; in Group 2 they were 0.1 to 10.2 kV/m and 1.0 to 15.4 pT. In the ECG analysis the only significant observation was a decrease in the heart rate after field exposure (Group 1). The drop cannot be explained with the first measuring method. Therefore Experiment II was carried out. In Experiment II two groups were used; Group 1 (26 male volunteers) were measured in real field exposure, Group 2 (15 male volunteers) in "sham" fields. The subjects of Group 1 spent 1 h outside the field, then 1 h in the field under a 400 kV transmission line, and then again 1 h outside the field. Under the 400 kV linethe field strength varied from 3.5 to 4.3 kV/m, and from 1.4 to 6.6 pT. Group 2spent the entire test period (3 h) in a 33 kV outdoor testing station in a "sham" field. ECG, blood pressure, and electroencephalogram (EEG) were measured by ambulatory methods. Before and after the field exposure, the subjects performed some cardiovascular autonomic function tests. The analysis of the results (Experiments I and II) showed that extrasystoles or arrythmias were as frequent in the field (below 4 kV/m and 4 pT) as outside it. In Experiment II there was no decrease detected in the heart rate, and the systolic and diastolic blood pressure stayed nearly the same. No health effects were found in this study.

Tämän työn tarkoituksena oli selvittää miksi kohdeyrityksen erään avainkomponentin, kehäpyörän, kovasorvauksen vaiheajoissa on niin paljon vaihtelua ja kuinka sitä saataisiin vähennettyä. Samalla pyrittiin lyhentämään keskimääräisiä vaiheaikoja. Tutkimus aloitettiin tuotannon nykytilan kartoituksella, jossa selvitettiin yrityksen toimintatapoja ja tuotannon tehokkuutta heikentäviä ongelmia. Tämän jälkeen aloitettiin varsinainen kehitysprojekti, joka perustui Lean-ajatteluun. Lean-ajattelu on tuotannon kehittämiseen tähtäävä filosofia, jossa pyritään tekemään enemmän vähemmällä, poistamalla tuotannosta kaikki ylimääräinen arvoa lisäämätön toiminta. Tuotantoon pyritään saamaan aikaiseksi tuotteiden jatkuva virtaus tuotantoa tahdistamalla. Erinomaisuutta tavoitellaan jatkuvalla parantamisella. Kohdeyrityksen tuotannon ongelmien tarkemmaksi selvittämiseksi toteutettiin erilaisia seurantoja, niin paikan päällä tuotannossa, kuin automaattista tiedonkeruuohjelmistoa hyväksi käyttäen. Seurantojen tuloksena selvisi, että pääsyyt tuotannon vaiheaikojen vaihteluun löytyvät teknisen järjestelmän sijaan ihmisten asenteista ja osaamisesta. Kun kehitystyön tuloksena toteutetaan muutoksia, kohdataan usein muutosvastarintaa. Tällöin tarvitaan tehokasta muutosjohtamista. Muutostyössä on tärkeä hallita tietoa sen jakamisen lisäksi myös sen keräämisessä. Muutoksiin johtavan tiedon tulee olla aina relevanttia ja faktapohjaista. Muutosjohtamisen tavoitteena on saada aikaiseksi tietoa luova organisaatio, joka kestää itsekritiikkiä ja jolla on poisoppimisen taito. Työsuoritusten parantamiseksi toteutettiin pilottihanke, jossa testattiin tässä työssä kehitettyä palautejärjestelmää. Palaute perustui automaattisen tiedonkeruuohjelmiston keräämään dataan. Samalla selvitettiin työtä hidastaneita ongelmia yhteistyössä työntekijöiden kanssa. Pilottihankkeen tulokset ovat lupaavia, sillä seurannassa olleen kehäpyörämallin viikoittaisten vaiheaikojen keskiarvo laski 32,6 % ja kehäpyörän puolikkaiden kovasorvauksen vaiheaikojen vaihtelut vähenivät 18,1 ja 26,8 %. Tämän tutkimuksen tulosten perusteella päivittäisten työmäärien tarkempaa seurantaa kannattaa jatkaa ja palautejärjestelmää kehittää edelleen.

Background: Dietary supplements are widely used among elite athletes but the prevalence of dietary supplement use among Finnish elite athletes is largely not known. The use of asthma medication is common among athletes. In 2009, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) removed the need to document asthma by lung function tests before the use of inhaled β2-agonists. Data about medication use by Paralympic athletes (PA) is limited to a study conducted at the Athens Paralympics. Aims: To investigate the prevalence of the use of self-reported dietary supplements, the use of physician-prescribed medication and the prevalence of physician-diagnosed asthma and allergies among Finnish Olympic athletes (OA). In addition, the differences in the selfreported physician-prescribed medication use were compared between the Finnish Olympic and the Paralympic athletes. Subjects and methods: Two cross-sectional studies were conducted in Finnish Olympic athletes receiving financial support from the Finnish Olympic Committee in 2002 (n=446) and in 2009 (n=372) and in Finnish top-level Paralympic athletes (n= 92) receiving financial support from Finnish Paralympic committee in 2006. The results of the Paralympic study were compared with the results of the Olympic study conducted in 2009. Both Olympic and Paralympic athletes filled in a similar semi-structured questionnaires. Results: Dietary supplements were used by 81% of the athletes in 2002 and by 73% of the athletes in 2009. After adjusting for age-, sex- and type of sport, the odds ratio OR (95% confidence interval, CI) for use of any dietary supplement was significantly less in 2009 as compared with the 2002 situation (OR 0.62; 95% CI 0.43-0.90). Vitamin D was used by 0.7% of the athletes in year 2002 but by 2% in 2009 (ns, p = 0.07). The use of asthma medication increased from 10.4 % in 2002 to 13.7% in 2009 (adjusted OR 1.71; 95% CI 1.08-2.69). For example, fixed combinations of inhaled long-acting β2-agonists (LABA) and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) were used three times more commonly in 2009 than in 2002 (OR 3.38; 95% CI 1.26-9.12). The use of any physician-prescribed medicines (48.9% vs. 33.3%, adjusted OR 1.99; 95% CI 1.13-3.51), painkilling medicines (adjusted OR 2.61; 95% CI 1.18-5.78), oral antibiotics (adjusted OR 4.10; 95% CI 1.30-12.87) and anti-epileptic medicines (adjusted OR 37.09; 95% CI 5.92-232.31) was more common among the PA than in the OA during the previous seven days. Conclusions: The use of dietary supplements is on the decline among Finnish Olympic athletes. The intake of some essential micronutrients, such as vitamin D, is suprisingly low and this may even cause harm in those well-trained athletes. The use of asthma medication, especially fixed combinations of LABAs and ICS, is clearly increasing among Finnish Olympic athletes. The use of any physician-prescribed medicine, especially those to treat chronic diseases, seems to be more common among the Paralympians than in the Olympic athletes.
