    • Medical constructions of long-term exhaustion, past and present 

      Lian, Olaug S; Bondevik, Hilde (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-04-24)
      Culture and history affect the ways in which medical knowledge is shaped, sustained and changed. The less knowledge we have, the larger the space for the cultural imprint becomes. Based on these assumptions, we ask: how have medical constructions of long-term exhaustion changed over time, and how are changing constructions related to societal change? To discuss these questions we conducted a ...

Blood samples were collected from 669 pregnant ...

    • The MeSH heading "Call Center" is due for an update: Why we recommend the more precise heading "Emergency Medical Communication Center" 

      Harring, Astrid Karina V.; Blinkenberg, Jesper; Brattebø, Guttorm; Hjortdahl, Magnus; Idland, Siri; Iversen, Emil; Leonardsen, Ann-Chatrin Linqvist; Zakariassen, Erik; Jørgensen, Trine Møgster (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-04)
      Call centers can be found in various industries. However as a Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) the term “Call centers” does not reflect the critical purpose of handling emergency calls. We recommend “emergency medical communication center(s)”, as this provides clarity and precision regarding the primary function and purpose of the center.
