Energetics, energy availability and Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (REDs) in female football players - Methodological perspectives and research implications
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2024-01-18)<p><i>Background:</i> For athletes, it is imperative that energy intake adequately addresses the total energy requirements inherent to their specific sport. Low energy availability, which is the failure to provide the body with adequate energy to sustain physiological homeostasis, may potentially result in Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (REDs). This is a syndrome that can have detrimental health ... -

Enhanced T-lymphocyte infiltration in a desmoid tumor of the thoracic wall in a young woman treated with intratumoral injections of the oncolytic peptide LTX-315: a case report
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-06-10)<p><i>Background - </i>Desmoid tumors are intermediary malignant, fibrous lesions occurring in various soft tissues. Surgical treatment is relentlessly challenging because of the propensity for local aggressive behavior and high risk of recurrence. Consequently, a wide range of oncological drugs and radiation therapy are being used; however, outcomes are unpredictable. We investigated whether local ... -

Vi sikter mot å utvikle studenter som er kulturelt bevisste og som kan ... -
Enhancing functional improvement in reablement – a qualitative study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-15)<i>Background and purpose</i>: Reablement is aimed to enable people to remain independent in their lives and is based on users’ own goals. Interventions are described to involve both physical exercises and guidance in everyday activities. However, descriptions of the content of reablement practices are sparse. This study aims to investigate and discuss how physiotherapists (PTs) on reablement teams ... -
Enhancing Leadership effectiveness in Virtual Teams: The Moderating Role of Transformational Leadership on Exhaustion and Job Satisfaction
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2023-04-28)Fremveksten av virtuelt arbeid og bruken av virtuelle teams i organisasjoner, ble intensivert av den nylige globale COVID-19-pandemien, og derved også behovet for å forstå hvordan en leders effektivitet kan bli påvirket i virtuelle arbeids kontekster. Denne studien undersøker den potensielt modererende rollen til transformasjonsledelse på forholdet mellom virtuelle teams og leder effektivitet, gjennom ... -
Ensuring valid and reliable data for quality control and research from a clinical registry for spine surgery.
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2013-11-29)Bakgrunn Behovet for å kvalitetssikre kirurgisk behandling av rygglidelser og utvikle kliniske retningslinjer, er veldokumentert. Derfor ble Nasjonalt kvalitetsregister for ryggkirurgi opprettet. Metodene som brukes må være valide og reliable. Hensikten med avhandlingen var å evaluere målemetodene og å vise hvordan registerdata kan brukes til kvalitetssikring og forskning, slik at pasientbehandlingen ... -
Entangling Reciprocity With the Relational in Narrative Inquiry
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-06-05)In this article, we develop, through drawing forward fragments of our experiences, a concept of reciprocity as always situated within the relational ontology of narrative inquiry. Reciprocity is most commonly understood within a transactional sense, an exchange of goods. We show important aspects of reciprocity in narrative inquiry, including the importance of intentionally creating and responding ... -

Enteral ernæring i mageleie hos den voksne intensivpasient.
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-04)Bakgrunn: Intensivpasienter er en kompleks pasientgruppe som krever avansert medisinsk utstyr under behandling. I etterkant av koronapandemien kan det ses at bruken av mageleie økte til respiratortrengende pasienter som har utviklet ARDS. Bruken av mageleie kan gi utfordringer i forhold til enteral ernæring. Intoleranse kan gi utfordringer i form av høyt gastrisk residualvolum som føre til utilstrekkelig ... -
Enterococcal Membrane Vesicles as Vaccine Candidates
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-11-07)Enterococcus faecium is a leading cause of nosocomial infections, particularly in immunocompromised patients. The rise of multidrug-resistant E. faecium, including Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci (VRE), is a major concern. Vaccines are promising alternatives to antibiotics, but there is currently no vaccine available against enterococci. In a previous study, we identified six protein vaccine ... -
The enterococcus cassette chromosome, a genomic variation enabler in enterococci
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-07)Enterococcus faecium has a highly variable genome prone to recombination and horizontal gene transfer. Here, we have identified a novel genetic island with an insertion locus and mobilization genes similar to those of staphylococcus cassette chromosome elements SCCmec. This novel element termed the enterococcus cassette chromosome (ECC) element was located in the 3′ region of rlmH and encoded large ... -
Enterococcus faecium produces membrane vesicles containing virulence factors and antimicrobial resistance related proteins
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-05-30)<i>Enterococcus faecium</i> is a commensal but also a bacteremia causing pathogen, which is inherently resistant to several antimicrobials and has a great ability to acquire new traits. Bacterial membrane vesicles (MVs) are increasingly recognized as a mode of cell-free communication and a way to deliver virulence factors and/or antimicrobial resistance determinants. These features make MVs interesting ... -
Enterococcus faecium TIR-Domain Genes Are Part of a Gene Cluster Which Promotes Bacterial Survival in Blood
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-12-03)<i>Enterococcus faecium</i> has undergone a transition to a multidrug-resistant nosocomial pathogen. The population structure of <i>E. faecium</i> is characterized by a sharp distinction of clades, where the hospital-adapted lineage is primarily responsible for bacteremia. So far, factors that were identified in hospital-adapted strains and that promoted pathogenesis of nosocomial <i>E. faecium</i> ... -
Entrance and survival of Brucella pinnipedialis hooded seal strain in human macrophages and epithelial cells
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)Marine mammal Brucella spp. have been isolated from pinnipeds (B. pinnipedialis) and cetaceans (B. ceti) from around the world. Although the zoonotic potential of marine mammal brucellae is largely unknown, reports of human disease exist. There are few studies of the mechanisms of bacterial intracellular invasion and multiplication involving the marine mammal Brucella spp. We examined the infective ... -
Environmental and occupational exposure, life-style factors and pregnancy outcome in arctic and subarctic populations of Norway and Russia
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2000)The study was initiated because of the public fear of adverse reproductive health and pregnancy outcomes in the Russian-Norwegian border zone in the vicinity of the nickel producing industry in the Kola Peninsula. The original objective was to assess health conditions of delivering women and their outcomes in the general population in the Russian- Norwegian arctic area, including assessment of ... -
Environmental factors, metabolic profile, hormones and breast and endometrial cancer risk
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2004)Breast cancer is the leading cancer among women in the Western world. In Norway, 2,503 cases of female breast cancer were diagnosed in 2000, which corresponds to an age-adjusted incidence rate of 72.1 per 100,000 women per year (1). The risk of breast cancer increases with age from puberty, doubling about every 10 years until the menopause, when the rate of increase slows dramatically and a ... -
