    • Diagnostikk og behandling av hydronefrose hos barn ved Universitetssykehuset i Nord-Norge i 1991-1996 og 2001-2006 

      Stensland, Sandy (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2009-09-15)
      Bakgrunn: Den vanligste årsaken til hydronefrose hos barn er avløpshinder i urinveiene. Dette ble tidligere ofte først oppdaget etter symptomdebut og deretter korrigert kirurgisk da man mente det ville forhindre nyreskade. Prenatal screening har gjort at de fleste tilfeller av hydronefrose hos barn nå oppdages før symptomdebut. De siste år har man valgt en mer konservativ holdning da man har forstått ...

    • Diagnostisering av dyp venetrombose ved kombinasjon av klinikk, D-dimer og ultralyd vener underekstremitet 

      Pleym, Karina; Sagerup, Line (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2007-09)
      Venøs tromboembolisme (dyp venetrombose eller lungeemboli) rammer 1 av 1000 nordmenn hvert år. Dyp venetrombose omfatter dermed mange pasienter, og tilstanden er alvorlig med høy morbiditet og mortalitet hvis den ikke diagnostiseres og behandles. Dette medfører høye kostnader for samfunnet og den enkelte pasient, og det er derfor viktig at diagnostiseringen er så presis og pålitelig som mulig. Det ...

    • Diagnostisk kvalitet ved vurdering av trombolyseeffekt 

      Kant, Anna Emilie (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-06-06)
      Bakgrunn: Rescue-PCI (RPCI) gjennomføres på pasienter med mistenkt mislykket trombolytisk behandling etter ST-elevasjonsinfarkt (STEMI). Det er vanlig å anta at trombolyse ikke gir effekt i ca 30% av tilfellene. Det observeres imidlertid at en høyere andel enn forventet registreres med indikasjonen STEMI/Rescue PCI i NORIC (Norsk Register For Invasiv Kardiologi), og det var derfor ønskelig å se ...

    • Dialogkonferanse i klasserommet – bro til bedre læring 

      Eriksen, Liss; Huemer, Jeanette (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013-02-21)
      Ideelt skal et studium innen praktiske fag føre til et «kick» når man er ferdig og står i den praktiske virksomheten studiet kvalifiserer for. Overgangen mellom profesjonsstudier og praksis har imidlertid generelt vist seg å være en akilleshæl. Artikkelen er en beskrivelse og en diskusjon av et fornyende studentaktivt pedagogisk prosjekt, som et alternativ til tradisjonell klasseromsundervisning. ...

    • Dialysekvalitet og dialysetilgangsproblemer hos pasienter ved dialyseenheten på UNN 2002-2005

    • Dichotic listening while walking: A dual-task paradigm examining gait asymmetries in healthy older and younger adults 

      Gorecka, Marta Maria; Vasylenko, Olena; Rodriguez-Aranda, Claudia (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-08)
      Dual-task studies have employed various cognitive tasks to evaluate the relationship between gait and cognition. Most of these tests are not specific to a single cognitive ability or sensory modality and have limited ecological validity. In this study, we employed a dual-task paradigm using Dichotic Listening (DL) as concomitant cognitive task to walking. We argue that DL is a robust task to unravel ...

    • The diet and high blood selenium concentrations. A study of battery repair workers in the Ashanti region of Ghana. 

      Boakye, Priscilla Akua (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2016-04-26)
      This study is based on an earlier study on the assessment of the bioavailability of inorganic elements among battery repair workers in the Ashanti Region of Ghana, which revealed high blood concentrations of selenium, lead and antimony. Selenium is obtained mainly through the diet in the form of food and dietary supplements. The purpose of this study was to investigate the food patterns of the battery ...

A qualitative analysis, and a quantitative comparison of Sami and non-Sami groups. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 elderly Sami ...

    • Diet and physical activity for children’s health: a qualitative study of Nepalese mothers’ perceptions 

      Oli, Natalia; Vaidya, Abhinav; Subedi, Madhusudan; Eiben, Gabriele; Krettek, Alexandra (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-09-08)
      Objectives: Non-communicable diseases account for 50% of all deaths in Nepal and 25% result from cardiovascular diseases. Previous studies in Nepal indicate a high burden of behavioural cardiovascular risk factors, suggesting a low level of knowledge, attitude and practice/behaviour regarding cardiovascular health. The behavioural foundation for a healthy lifestyle begins in early childhood, ...

    • Diet in the treatment of ADHD 

      Ekhorn, Martine Teres Apelqvist (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-08-31)
      Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, ADHD, is estimated to be the most common behavioural disorder in children. The condition has only a few options for evidence-based treatment, and public accessible numbers have shown more than a threefold increase in the use of medication for ADHD in Norway since 2004. Studies have shown an association between ADHD and western dietary pattern, and it seems ...

    • Diet quality scores and prediction of all-cause, cardiovascular and cancer mortality in a pan-european cohort study

Finally, the association between use of cod liver oil and other supplements and survival ...

    • Diet, physical activity and venous thromboembolism 

      Hansen-Krone, Ida Johanne (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2014-01-17)
      Summary There is substantial evidence for the influence of life-style factors on the incidence of arterial thromboembolic diseases such as myocardial infarction and stroke. However, limited knowledge exists on the relation between life-style factors and venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE, a collective term for deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a common disease with serious short- and ...

    • Diet-induced obese mouse hearts tolerate an acute high fatty acid exposure that also increases ischemic tolerance 

      Boardman, Neoma Tove; Pedersen, Tina Myhre; Rossvoll, Line; Hafstad, Anne Dragøy; Aasum, Ellen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-03)
      An ischemic insult is accompanied by an acute increase in circulating fatty acid (FA) levels, which can induce adverse changes related to cardiac metabolism/energetics. Although chronic hyperlipidemia contributes to the pathogenesis of obesity-/diabetes-related cardiomyopathy, it is unclear how these hearts are affected by an acute high FA-load. We hypothesize that adaptation to chronic FA exposure ...

    • Diet-wide association study of 92 foods and nutrients and lung cancer risk in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition study and the Netherlands Cohort Study 

      Heath, Alicia K.; Muller, David C.; van den Brandt, Piet A.; Critselis, Elena; Gunter, Marc; Vineis, Paolo; Weiderpass, Elisabete; Boeing, Heiner; Ferrari, Pietro; Merritt, Melissa A.; Rostgaard-Hansen, Agnetha L.; Tjønneland, Anne; Overvad, Kim; Katzke, Verena; Srour, Bernard; Masala, Giovanna; Sacerdote, Carlotta; Ricceri, Fulvio; Pasanisi, Fabrizio; Bueno-de-Mesquita, Bas; Downward, George S.; Skeie, Guri; Sandanger, Torkjel M; Crous-Bou, Marta; Rodríguez-Barranco, Miguel; Amiano, Pilar; Huerta, José María; Ardanaz, Eva; Drake, Isabel; Johansson, Mikael; Johansson, Ingegerd; Key, Tim; Papadimitriou, Nikos; Riboli, Elio; Tzoulaki, Ioanna; Tsilidis, Konstantinos K. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-07-13)
      It is unclear whether diet, and in particular certain foods or nutrients, are associated with lung cancer risk. We assessed associations of 92 dietary factors with lung cancer risk in 327 790 participants in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC). Cox regression yielded adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) per SD higher intake/day of ...

    • Dietary advanced glycation end-products and colorectal cancer risk in the European prospective investigation into cancer and nutrition (EPIC) study 

      Aglago, Elom K.; Mayén, Ana-Lucia; Knaze, Viktoria; Freisling, Heinz; Fedirko, Veronika; Hughes, David J.; Jiao, Li; Eriksen, Anne Kirstine; Tjønneland, Anne; Boutron-Ruault, Marie-Christine; Rothwell, Joseph A.; Severi, Gianluca; Kaaks, Rudolf; Katzke, Verena; Schulze, Matthias B.; Birukov, Anna; Palli, Domenico; Sieri, Sabina; de Magistris, Maria Santucci; Tumino, Rosario; Ricceri, Fulvio; Bueno-De-Mesquita, Bas; Derksen, Jeroen W.G.; Skeie, Guri; Gram, Inger Torhild; Sandanger, Torkjel M; Quirós, J. Ramón; Lujan-Barroso, Leila; Sánchez, Maria-Jose; Amiano, Pilar; Chirlaque, María-Dolores; Barricarte, Aurelio; Johansson, Ingegerd; Manjer, Jonas; Perez-Cornago, Aurora; Weiderpass, Elisabete; Gunter, Marc; Heath, Alicia K.; Schalkwijk, Casper G.; Jenab, Mazda (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-08)
      Dietary advanced glycation end-products (dAGEs) have been hypothesized to be associated with a higher risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) by promoting inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, and oxidative stress in the colonic epithelium. However, evidence from prospective cohort studies is scarce and inconclusive. We evaluated CRC risk associated with the intake of dAGEs in the European Prospective ...
