  ILSA 2017 in Tromsø : proceedings from the 42nd annual conference of the International Lung Sound Association 

  Melbye, Hasse (Conference object; Konferansebidrag, 2017)

  The usefulness of lung auscultation is changing. It depends on how well practitioners understand the generation of sounds.

  Lund, Eiliv (Others; Andre, 2017)

  Dette er en personlig, objektiv beskrivelse av grunnlaget for Kvinner og Kreft, utviklingen over tid og samspillet mellom ideer, engasjement og tilfeldigheter. Over ca femti år er det meste forandret fra forskning drevet av nysgjerrighet til forskning som konkurranse. Det springende spørsmål er hva som gir best utbytte i fremtiden? Prosjekter har ofte en meget lang tidshorisont. Politiske og ...

  Maternal concentrations, predictors and change in profiles of organochlorines, toxic and essential elements during pregnancy and postpartum : the Vietnamese mother-and-child study and the Northern Norwegian mother-and-child study 

  Hansen, Solrunn (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2011)

  Persistent toxic substances like organochlorines (OCs) and certain toxic metals have been or are extensively used, and can be globally distributed by long-range transport. The fetus and growing child are exposed via the placenta and breast milk and are vulnerable to their negative health effects. Concentrations measured in maternal blood or breast milk are thus potential indicators of risk for ...

  Fragile bones in patients with stroke? : bone mineral density in acute stroke patients and changes during one year of follow up 

  Jørgensen, Lone (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2001)

  This thesis highlights several clinically important questions related to bone loss the first year following stroke and with regard to bone mass at stroke onset:<br> Lack of mobility and weight bearing early after stroke is an important factor for the greater bone loss in the proximal femur on the paretic side. Relearning to walk within the first two month after stroke, even with support of another ...

  Sex steroids, bone loss and non-vertebral fractures in women and men : the Tromsø study 

  Bjørnerem, Åshild (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2007)

  When this thesis was planned in 2000-2001 it was well known that bone loss accelerates after menopause, and is prevented by using hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Case reports of young men with estrogen receptor dysfunction or aromatase deficiency showed that estrogen was important for normal growth and maturation of the male skeleton. However, there were few prospective studies examining the ...
