• Depositional processes on the distal Scoresby Trough Mouth Fan (ODP Site 987): Implications for the Pleistocene evolution of the Scoresby Sund Sector of the Greenland Ice Sheet 

  Laberg, Jan Sverre; Rydningen, Tom Arne; Forwick, Matthias; Husum, Katrine (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-28)

  The investigation of trough mouth fans (TMFs), important paleoclimatic archives on mid- and high-latitude continental margins, has so far mainly been based on the integration of various types of acoustic data supplemented with short sediments cores. In consequence, sedimentological and chronological data about parts of TMFs deposited prior to the Last Glacial Maximum remains sparse. Here, we re-evaluate ...

  Studies of some Operators of Harmonic Analysis in certain Function Spaces with Applications to PDEs 

  Lundberg, Staffan (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2018-12-05)

  The study in this PhD thesis aims at development of certain mathematical methods used in applications, in particular, in the study of regularity properties of solutions in various mathematical models described by Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). To this end, we study various operators of harmonic analysis in certain function spaces, since solutions to many PDEs may be expressed in terms of ...

  “EFFECT OF IRRADIATION ON THE IMMUNOREGULATORY FUNCTIONS EXERTED BY TUMOUR FIBROBLASTS ON MACROPHAGES” 

  Akhtar, Muhammad Asad (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-11-19)

  Summary Background/aim of the study: Carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) represents a heterogeneous population of cells and are considered one of the dominant stromal component of solid tumours, performing a crucial role in tumour proliferation and metastasis. The main objective of this study was to investigate the immunoregulatory features of CAFs isolated from non-small cell lung carcinomas ...

  The enterococcus cassette chromosome, a genomic variation enabler in enterococci 

  Sivertsen, Audun; James Peter, Jessin Janice; Pedersen, Torunn Annie; Wagner, Theresa; Hegstad, Joachim; Hegstad, Kristin (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-07)

  Enterococcus faecium has a highly variable genome prone to recombination and horizontal gene transfer. Here, we have identified a novel genetic island with an insertion locus and mobilization genes similar to those of staphylococcus cassette chromosome elements SCCmec. This novel element termed the enterococcus cassette chromosome (ECC) element was located in the 3′ region of rlmH and encoded large ...

  Treatment effects on compulsive exercise and physical activity in eating disorders 

  Mathisen, Therese Fostervold; Bratland-Sanda, Solfrid; Rosenvinge, Jan H; Friborg, Oddgeir; Pettersen, Gunn; Vrabel, Kari-Anne; Sundgot-Borgen, Jorunn (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-12-13)

  Background:<br> Dysfunctional thoughts- and use of physical activity (PA) are core symptoms of the eating disorders (ED) bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED). The compulsive desire for PA complicates a favourable treatment outcome; hence, regular, adapted PA led by personnel with competence in exercise science is rarely part of treatment of BN and BED. The present study compared ...
