      Nordal, Ellen Berit; Guillaume-Czitrom, Severine; Sibilia, Jean (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-05-09)
      Disease classification in rheumatology is a matter of debate, in paediatrics between International League Against Rheumatism (ILAR) classification ‘pros and cons’, as well as between paediatric and adult rheumatologists. Indeed, there is no consensus yet about how we should name the disease of adults with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in childhood. The non-concordance of adult and paediatric ...

    • Gruppeforskjeller i spatiale evner. En kvantitativ studie av gruppeforskjeller i spatiale evner mellom fysikkstudenter og psykologistudenter 

      Fjærestad, Anita; Jørgensen, Elin Falkeng (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-04-30)
      Forskning har indikert kjønnsforskjeller i spatiale evner, i tillegg til gruppeforskjeller mellom studentgrupper. Menn presterer bedre på spatiale oppgaver enn kvinner, og «STEM»-studenter har vist seg å prestere bedre enn andre studenter. På bakgrunn av tidligere forskning ønsket vi å teste hypotesen om at fysikkstudenter presterer bedre på spatiale tester enn psykologistudenter. Femti deltakere ...

      Conventional measurements of fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels investigated in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) cannot capture the effects of DNA variability on ‘around the clock’ glucoregulatory processes. Here we show that GWAS meta-analysis of glucose measurements under nonstandardized conditions (random glucose (RG)) in 476,326 individuals of diverse ancestries and without ...
