Pasientrapportert tilfredshet og livskvalitet etter ulike kirurgiske inngrep ved brystkreft
(Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2018-09-20)Bakgrunn: Primær behandling ved brystkreft er kirurgi. Kirurgiske alternativer ved brystkreft er mastektomi, lumpektomi, mastektomi med primær brystrekonstruksjon (MPR) eller mastektomi med sekundær rekonstruksjon (MSR). For de fleste brystkreftpasienter vil det være flere aktuelle kirurgiske metoder. Kunnskap om postoperativ livskvalitet, tilfredshet og komplikasjoner vil da kunne være veiledende ... -

Impaired HDL function amplifies systemic inflammation in common variable immunodeficiency
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-01)Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is the most common symptomatic primary immunodeficiency, characterized by inadequate antibody responses and recurrent bacterial infections. Paradoxically, a majority of CVID patients have non-infectious inflammatory and autoimmune complications, associated with systemic immune activation. Our aim was to explore if HDL, known to have anti-inflammatory properties, ... -
Effects of Linear Versus Changes of Direction Repeated Sprints on Intermittent High Intensity Running Performance in High-level Junior Football Players over an Entire Season: A Randomized Trial
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-06)<i>Abstract</i>: Background: Changes of direction (COD) repeated sprints (RSs) might have greater relevance to football than linear RSs. We aimed to compare the effects of linear and COD RSs on intermittent high intensity running (HIR) over an entire season. <p> <p><i>Methods</i>: In total, 19 high-level male football players (16–19 years) randomly performed linear RSs or COD RSs twice a week ...
