Advancements in digital pathology and computing resources have made a significant impact in the field of computational pathology for breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. However, access to high-quality labeled histopathological images of breast cancer is a big challenge that limits the development of accurate and robust deep learning models. In this scoping review, we identified the publicly ...

Introduction - There are many risk factors for obstetric anal sphincter injury (OASIS) and the interaction between these risk factors is complex and understudied. The many observational studies that have shown a reduction of OASIS rates after implementation of perineal support have short follow-up time. We aimed to study the effect of integration of active perineal support and lateral episiotomy on ...

Background: Life satisfaction, an integral part of subjective well-being, is based on our cognitive assessment of our life's aim and achievement (1, 2). Previous studies have assessed life satisfaction primarily among adults, but there is a paucity of studies among adolescents (3-5). Also, research among adults involves factors such as job satisfaction, workplace ties, married life, and having ...

Abstract Introduction: Various studies have explored the association between coffee consumption and the risk of inflammation, yet results are inconsistent. Few studies have examined these association separately in women and men and by type of coffee consumed. We therefore aimed to further investigate this association in a heavy coffee drinking population by including four different methods of ...

The link between educational attainment and multiple health behaviours has been explained in various ways. This paper provides new insights into the social patterning in health behaviours by investigating the influence of parents' and partners' educational attainments on a composite indicator that integrates the four commonly studied lifestyle behaviours (smoking, alcohol, physical activity and BMI). ...

Introduksjon: Utilstrekkelig jodinntak er et folkehelseproblem i flere land. Mange land i Europa og Norden har individer som er i risiko for mild til moderat jodmangel. Særlig fertile kvinner, gravide og ammende er i risiko. Jod er et sporstoff som er essensielt for thyreoideahormonene trijodtyrotyronin og tyroksin. Hormonene er involvert i reguleringen av metabolismen og er viktig for normal utvikling ...

Background: Chronic high fructose intake is associated with the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and metabolic-dysfunction associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). Fructose metabolised in the liver is not subject to the same strict regulation as glucose, and high fructose intake can therefore increase lipid production and storage, leading to detrimental metabolic changes. Fructose may also induce hypertension ...

This paper presents the results of a multidisciplinary study with the aim of assessing the potential combined risk from consuming locally harvested food products in the Euro-Arctic region of Norway, Finland, and Russia. The three important contaminant groups—radioactive substances, heavy metals, and persistent organic pollutants (POPs)—were measured in food samples such as berries, mushrooms, fish, ...

Disordered eating behavior (DEB) is more prevalent among female athletes compared to both male athletes and non-athlete women. This behavior can significantly compromise both the performance and overall health of athlete. However, it has been almost two decades since previous research reported DEB prevalence in the athletic Norwegian population, making an update on the subject necessary. This study ...

Background: Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP) monitors persistent organic pollutant (POP) levels in the Arctic and assesses health effects related to them. Many of the POPs are regulated internationally, but still found in humans and biota. There are also new emerging contaminants, of which many are unregulated. Arctic populations present high contaminant concentrations compared to ...
