    • Intracellular Transposition and Capture of Mobile Genetic Elements following Intercellular Conjugation of Multidrug Resistance Conjugative Plasmids from Clinical Enterobacteriaceae Isolates 

      Tansirichaiya, Supathep; Goodman, Richard N.; Guo, Xinyu; Bulgasim, Issra; Samuelsen, Ørjan; Al-Haroni, Mohammed; Roberts, Adam P. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-19)
      Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) are often associated with antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs). They are responsible for intracellular transposition between different replicons and intercellular conjugation and are therefore important agents of ARG dissemination. Detection and characterization of functional MGEs, especially in clinical isolates, would increase our understanding of the underlying ...

    • Introducing dental local anaesthesia using a standardized cognitive behavioural technique 

      Vestjord, Maria; Kjøløymo, Tina; Nerdal, Anne Marte (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2012-05-29)
      A major dilemma is that pain free dental treatment using local anaesthesia (LA) is of main importance for avoiding dental fear and anxiety (DFA) at the same time as intraoral injections are strongly associated with DFA. Well-educated dentists and dental hygienists, with a variety of techniques and approaches available, are important to give the patient receiving LA a perception of control. The purpose ...

    • Inverse PCR-based detection reveal novel mobile genetic elements and their associated genes in the human oral metagenome 

      Tansirichaiya, Supathep; Winje, Endre; Wigand, Johannes; Al-Haroni, Mohammed (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-27)
      The human oral cavity is one of the hotspots harboring multiple mobile genetic elements (MGEs), which are segments of DNA that can move either within bacterial genomes or between bacterial cells that can facilitate the spreading of genetic materials, including antimicrobial resistance genes. It is, therefore, important to investigate genes associated with the MGEs as they have a high probability of ...

      Skaug, Kim André; Cirotzki, Franz; Nesstveit, Hendrik William (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-05-23)
      Bakgrunn: Utbrenthet kan anses som en alvorlig risiko for tannlegeyrket, med konsekvenser som påvirker både renommeet til yrkesgruppen i sin helhet, og for den enkelte tannlege. Det er likevel viktig å poengtere at hovedmengden av tannleger ikke lider av utbrenthet. Målet med studien var å kartlegge nivå av jobbengasjement blant norske tannleger, undersøke hvilke faktorer i tannlegens arbeid som ...

    • Kan implisitte holdninger i tannhelsetjenesten påvirke hvilke kliniske beslutninger og vurderinger som tas? 

      Arntzen, Guro; Mæhre, Maria Emilie (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-02)
      Bakgrunn: Innenfor tannhelsetjenesten kan behandleren ofte møte pasienter som opplever subjektiv smerte, og det kan hende at flere behandlingsalternativer kan vurderes til å være rett behandling avhengig av hvilken behandler som vurderer pasientkasuset. Til tross for at det finnes forskning på implisitte holdningers påvirkning på kliniske beslutninger innenfor mange områder innenfor helsevesenet, ...

    • Karieserfaring hos 5-, 12- og 18-åringer i Tromsø og Skien i 2013

      Kariesprevalensen i Norge har de siste tiårene sunket betraktelig. Likevel er det stor variasjon mellom fylkene og barn i Nord-Norge har høyere karieserfaring enn barn i andre deler av landet. Tannhelsedata for 5-, 12- og 18-åringer i alle fylkeskommunene rapporteres årlig inn til SSB i forbindelse med KOSTRA. Det er disse data som brukes for å sammenlikne tannhelsen og se utvikling over tid. Det ...
