  Validity of dietary intake methods in cancer cachexia 

  Balstad, Trude Rakel; Bråtveit, Marianne; Solheim, Tora S; Koteng, Lisa Heide; Bye, Asta; Jakobsen, Rasmus Dahl; Schødt-Osmo, Bente; Fjeldstad, Siv Hilde; Erichsen, Marianne; Vagnildhaug, Ola Magne; Paur, Ingvild; Ottestad, Inger (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024)

  Purpose of review: Accurate assessment of dietary intake, especially energy and protein intake, is crucial for optimizing nutritional care and outcomes in patients with cancer. Validation of dietary assessment methods is necessary to ensure accuracy, but the validity of these methods in patients with cancer, and especially in those with cancer cachexia, is uncertain. Validating nutritional intake ...

  Construction Logistics Conceptualization: A Comprehensive Framework and Existing Challenges 

  Ngo, Thi Thao Uyen; Alfnes, Erlend; Semini, Marco Giovanni (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)

  Playing a key role in the nation’s infrastructure development, construc- tion industry has been studied extensively for several decades. However, there is a need of systemizing knowledge on construction logistics – a crucial element in improving performance of the industry. Combining multiple case study and literature review methods, this research offers a comprehensive framework for construction ...

  Molecular-level characterization of supraglacial dissolved and water-extractable organic matter along a hydrological flow path in a Greenland Ice Sheet micro-catchment 

  Doting, Eva L.; Stevens, Ian T.; Kellerman, Anne M.; Rossel, Pamela E.; Antony, Runa; McKenna, Amy M.; Tranter, Martyn; Benning, Liane G.; Spencer, Robert G. M.; Hawkings, Jonathan Robert; Anesio, Alexandre M. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-01-06)

  Sunlight penetrates the bare-ice surface of glaciers and ice sheets, giving rise to the presence of a three-dimensional porous matrix of partially melted ice crystals known as the weathering crust. Surface meltwater slowly percolates through this weathering crust, which hosts active and diverse bacterial communities, until it reaches a supraglacial stream. Despite the potential implications of ...

  Homogenization of nonlocal spectral problems 

  Piatnitski, Andrei; Rybalko, Volodymyr (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-11-11)

  We consider a spectral problem for convolution-type operators in environments with locally periodic microstructure and study the asymptotic behavior of the bottom of the spectrum. We show that the bottom point of the spectrum converges as the microstructure period tends to zero, and identify the limit in terms of an additive eigenvalue problem for effective Hamilton–Jacobi equation. In the periodic ...

  Seroprevalence and risk factors of brucellosis in pastoralists and their livestock in Central Equatoria State, South Sudan 

  Lita, Emmanuel P.; Ochi, Erneo B.; Misinzo, Gerald; van Heerden, Henriette; Katani, Robab; Godfroid, Jacques Xavier Leon; Mathew, Coletha (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-12-19)

  Background Brucellosis poses serious public health implications and substantial economic losses in pastoral rural settings in South Sudan. In humans, brucellosis is almost always originating from animals. Current literature provides scant data regarding the seroprevalence of brucellosis in South Sudan. This cross-sectional study investigates the seroprevalence of brucellosis among the pastoral ...
