Three Thousand Years of Continuity in the Maternal Lineages of Ancient Sheep (Ovis aries) in Estonia
Although sheep (Ovis aries) have been one of the most exploited domestic animals in Estonia since the Late Bronze Age, relatively little is known about their genetic history. Here, we explore temporal changes in Estonian sheep populations and their mitochondrial genetic diversity over the last 3000 years. We target a 558 base pair fragment of the mitochondrial hypervariable region in 115 ancien...

BACKGROUND Sleep is an active and complex behavior, yet it has two straightforward properties-timing and duration. Clock genes are associated with dysfunctional timing of sleep, mood, and obesity disorders, which are commonly associated with sleep duration. METHODS Sleep duration was assessed in Central Europe, Estonia, and South Tyrol (n approximately 77,000) with the Munich ChronoType Quest...
The forest test site at Järvselja, Estonia is addressed in the new proposal for CHRIS multispectral multiangular acquisition. Short introduction of the test site, the previous work done, and the plans of using CHRIS data are described.
OBJECTIVES Allergic rhinitis and atopy are more common in urban than rural environments. Non-allergic rhinitis has not been studied to a great extent. We aimed to assess the relationship of rhinitis symptoms with different profiles of allergic sensitization, comparing this in rural and urban environments. METHODS The study population consisted of population-based cohorts of adults aged 26-60 ...
BACKGROUND During the last decade, sickness absence rates in Estonia have reached the level of Nordic countries. This places Estonia in a group of countries with the highest absence rate in the European Union. Unlike Nordic countries, factors associated with sickness absence have not been studied in Estonia. AIMS To investigate which work-related, individual and health factors, other than cur...
