Tässä työssä on tutkittu sellun kuivauskoneella koivusellua kuivattaessa esiintyvää ajettavuusongelmaa. Tähän ongelmaan on etsitty ratkaisua monimuuttujamenetelmien avulla. Työn kirjallisuusosassa on lyhyesti käyty läpi sellun kuivauskoneiden historia lieriöviirakoneista nykyaikaisiin kaksoisviirasovelluksiin. Lisäksi kirjallisuusosassa on käsitelty tässä työssä käytettyjen monimuuttujamenetelmien perusteet ja käyty esimerkin omaisesti läpi joitakin kemometrian sovelluksia puunjalostusteollisuudessa. Työn kokeellisessa osassa on haettu tiedonkeruujärjestelmästä massan ominaisuuksista ja kuivauskoneen ajoparametreistä koostuvaa dataa vuoden 1999 ajalta. Tästä datasta on tehty PCA-mallit vuoden 1999 jokaisen kuukauden datasta ja diskriminoiva PLS-malli ajettavuuden kannalta hyvästä ja huonosta jaksosta koostuvasta datasta. Kuivauskoneelta on koottu dataa myös ottamalla kiertovesi- ja selluarkkinäytteitä. Kiertovesinäytteiden analyysituloksista on tehty PCA-mallit ja lisäksi analyysitulokset on tarkasteltu yksimuuttujaisesti. Selluarkkinäytteistä on määritetty UV-spektrit ja niistä on tehty PCA-mallit, jotta spektreistä saataisiin mahdollisimman paljon informaatiota. Työssä on havaittu yhdeksi selitykseksi ajettavuusongelmalle kuivauskoneen kiertovesien likaantuminen. Kiertovesiä ja massarainan pintakemiaa tulisi kuitenkin tutkia laajemmassa mittakaavassa kuin tämän työn puitteissa on ollut mahdollista tutkia.
Aims/hypothesis We studied for the first time the long-term effects of a combined physical activity and dietary intervention on insulin resistance and fasting plasma glucose in a general population of predominantly normal-weight children. Methods We carried out a 2 year non-randomised controlled trial in a population sample of 504 children aged 6–9 years at baseline. The children were allocated to a combined physical activity and dietary intervention group (306 children at baseline, 261 children at 2-year follow-up) or a control group (198 children, 177 children) without blinding. We measured fasting insulin and fasting glucose, calculated HOMA-IR, assessed physical activity and sedentary time by combined heart rate and body movement monitoring, assessed dietary factors by a 4 day food record, used the Finnish Children Healthy Eating Index (FCHEI) as a measure of overall diet quality, and measured body fat percentage (BF%) and lean body mass by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. The intervention effects on insulin, glucose and HOMA-IR were analysed using the intention-to-treat principle and linear mixed-effects models after adjustment for sex, age at baseline, and pubertal status at baseline and 2 year follow-up. The measures of physical activity, sedentary time, diet and body composition at baseline and 2 year follow-up were entered one-by-one as covariates into the models to study whether changes in these variables might partly explain the observed intervention effects. Results Compared with the control group, fasting insulin increased 4.65 pmol/l less (absolute change +8.96 vs +13.61 pmol/l) and HOMA-IR increased 0.18 units less (+0.31 vs +0.49 units) over 2 years in the combined physical activity and dietary intervention group. The intervention effects on fasting insulin (regression coefficient β for intervention effect −0.33 [95% CI −0.62, −0.04], p = 0.026) and HOMA-IR (β for intervention effect −0.084 [95% CI −0.156, −0.012], p = 0.023) were statistically significant after adjustment for sex, age at baseline, and pubertal status at baseline and 2 year follow-up. The intervention had no effect on fasting glucose, BF% or lean body mass. Changes in total physical activity energy expenditure, light physical activity, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, total sedentary time, the reported consumption of high-fat (≥60%) vegetable oil-based spreads, and FCHEI, but not a change in BF% or lean body mass, partly explained the intervention effects on fasting insulin and HOMA-IR. Conclusions/interpretation The combined physical activity and dietary intervention attenuated the increase in insulin resistance over 2 years in a general population of predominantly normal-weight children. This beneficial effect was partly mediated by changes in physical activity, sedentary time and diet but not changes in body composition.
Purpose: We studied the effects of a physical activity and dietary intervention on plasma lipids in a general population of children. We also investigated how lifestyle changes contributed to the intervention effects. Methods: We carried out a 2-year controlled, non-randomized lifestyle intervention study among 504 mainly prepubertal children aged 6–9 years at baseline. We assigned 306 children to the intervention group and 198 children to the control group. We assessed plasma concentrations of total, LDL, HDL, and VLDL cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL triglycerides, and VLDL triglycerides. We evaluated the consumption of foods using 4-day food records and physical activity using a movement and heart rate sensor. We analyzed data using linear mixed-effect models adjusted for age at baseline, sex, and pubertal stage at both time points. Furthermore, specific lifestyle variables were entered in these models. Results: Plasma LDL cholesterol decreased in the intervention group but did not change in the control group ( − 0.05 vs. 0.00 mmol/L, regression coefficient (β) = − 0.0385, p = 0.040 for group*time interaction). This effect was mainly explained by the changes in the consumption of high-fat vegetable oil-based spreads (β = − 0.0203, + 47% change in β) and butter-based spreads (β = − 0.0294, + 30% change in β), moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (β = − 0.0268, + 30% change in β), light physical activity (β = − 0.0274, + 29% change in β) and sedentary time (β = − 0.0270, + 30% change in β). The intervention had no effect on other plasma lipids. Conclusion: Lifestyle intervention resulted a small decrease in plasma LDL cholesterol concentration in children. The effect was explained by changes in quality and quantity of dietary fat and physical activity.
