    • Words lead to action. Do incompatible movements interfere with verbal stimulus-response learning? 

      Skjoldli, Are (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-05-03)
      Abstract Embodied cognition research has shown that bodily activity could affect cognitive processes in multiple ways. It has for instance been theorized that when we process language related to physical actions such as the word “push”, we automatically use the motor-areas of the brain to simulate our understanding of this concept, much like actually performing a pushing action. In this study, I ...

    • Workforce and Professional Education 

      Blair, Mitch; Gage, Heather; MacPepple, Ekelechi; Michaud, Pierre-Andre; Hilliard, Carol; Clancy, Anne; Hollywood, Eleanor; Brenner, Maria; Al-Yassin, Amina; Nitsche, Catharina (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2019-05-06)
      Given that the workforce constitutes a principal resource of primary care, appraisal of models of care requires thorough investigation of the health workforce in all Models of Child Health Appraised (MOCHA) countries. This chapter explores this in terms of workforce composition, remuneration, qualifications and training in relation to the needs of children and young people. We have focused on ...

    • Working for the Best or Bracing for the Worst? Approach and Avoidance Motivation in Planning 

      Bø, Simen; Sjåstad, Hallgeir; Norman, Elisabeth (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-03-11)
      Even though planning is generally helpful in goal pursuit, people do not always choose to plan. The inclination to plan might depend on whether we focus on what we seek to approach or what we seek to avoid. In two pre-registered experiments, we tested the relative effect of approach versus avoidance motivation on willingness to plan (total <i>N</i>=1349). With outcome framing as the experimental ...

    • Workplace Cold and Perceived Work Ability: Paradoxically Greater Disadvantage for More vs. Less-Educated Poultry Industry Workers in Thailand 

      Phanprasit, Wantanee; Konthonbut, Pajaree; Laohaudomchok, Wisanti; Tangtong, Chaiyanun; Ikäheimo, Tiina; Jaakkola, Jouni; Nayha, Simo (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-01)
      The association between worksite temperature and perceived work ability (WA) in various educational classes remains unknown. Therefore, we interviewed 286 poultry industry workers in Thailand about their WA and linked their responses to worksite temperature. WA was based on the self-assessment of current work ability compared with their lifetime best ability (scores 0–10). Education was classified ...

    • The world of β-glucans : a review of biological roles, applications and potential areas of research 

      Ali, Syed Haris (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2009-05-15)
      Among many known and tested immunomodulators, polysaccharides isolated from various natural sources occupy a prominent position. An important group of these polysaccharides is represented by the homopolymers of β-glucose, called β-glucans. Their very low-to-negligible toxicity and immunomodulating effects show the promise it has in the therapy of a variety of infectious and cancer illnesses. ...

    • Would loss to follow-up bias the outcome evaluation of patients operated for degenerative disorders of the lumbar spine? 

      Solberg, Tore; Sørlie, Andreas; Sjåvik, Kristin; Nygaard, Øystein Petter; Ingebrigtsen, Tor (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      Loss to follow-up may bias the outcome assessments of clinical registries. In this study, we wanted to determine whether outcomes were different in responding and non-responding patients who were included in a clinical spine surgery registry, at two years of follow-up. In addition, we wanted to identify risk factors for failure to respond. 633 patients who were operated for degenerative disorders ...

    • Wound healing in diabetes. An intervention study in db/db mice 

      Berdal, Margrete (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2017-06-09)
      The prevalence of diabetes is increasing globally. Certain microvascular and macrovascular complications such as cardiovascular disease, retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, and impaired wound healing are associated with the disease. Prolonged exposure to hyperglycaemia plays an important role in their development. Glucose reacts with macromolecules including proteins, lipoproteins, and nucleic ...

    • Wrist malpractice claims in Northern Norway 2005–2014. Lessons to be learned

      Rough weather conditions in the subarctic areas of Norway may influence on the risk of wrist fracture. We implemented data from the Norwegian System of Patient Injury Compensation (NPE). All claims due to wrist surgery, performed at the public hospitals in Northern Norway, during 2005-2014 were analyzed. We employed the ICD-10 classification codes S52.5 (fracture of distal end of radius) and S52.6 ...

    • Writing disorder: The harmful and healing effects of writing in Hornbacher’s Wasted and other anorexia memoirs 

      Grange, Huw (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10-31)
      A growing body of evidence points to the potential of life writing about anorexia to foster “disordered reading” practices in certain readers (Seaber, 2016), with particular concerns raised about the breakthrough eating disorder memoir, Marya Hornbacher’s Wasted (1998). With this article, I shift the focus from readers to authors, exploring the positive and negative health consequences of writing ...
