    • Male and female immediate fear reaction to white noise in a semi-natural environment: A detailed behavioural analysis of the role of sex and oestrogen receptors 

      Le Moene, Olivia; Ramirez-Renteria, Mayra; Ågmo, Anders j (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-01)
      In classical rodent anxiety models, females usually display lower anxiety than males, whereas anxiety disorders are more prevalent in women. Perhaps this contradiction is caused by the use of behavioural models with low external validity. Therefore, we analysed immediate reactions to a sudden 90-dB white noise in a semi-natural environment. We observed mixed-sex groups of rats for the 60 seconds ...

    • Male rat sexual behavior: Insights from inter-copulatory intervals 

      Huijgens, Patty Thalia; Guarraci, Fay; Olivier, Jocelien; Snoeren, Eelke (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-07-09)
      The assessment of sexual behavior in male rats with the aim of unraveling underlying neurobiological mechanisms has in the recent decades been reduced to the annotation of mounts, intromissions and ejaculations. To provide a better understanding of the structure and patterns of copulation, it is necessary to extend and tailor the analysis to the natural organization of male rat copulation. This will ...

    • Maligne og precancerøse hudlesjoner hos nyretransplanterte pasienter - En prospektiv studie fra privat spesialistpraksis 

      Skjernes, Elisabeth Jacobsen; Brun, Sara Johanne (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2014-07-31)
      Maligne og premaligne hudlesjoner er vanlig hos immunsupprimerte pasienter. Flere risikofaktorer er årsak til denne utviklingen. Det er gjort flere retrospektive studier på dette emnet, men mange av disse er gjort i geografiske områder med annen eksponering for karsinogene faktorer enn i en norsk populasjon. Det er gjort få prospektive studier på samme emne. Vårt mål er å se på forekomsten både av ...

      Augustson, Anders; Klepaker, Peder Tanke (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2021-12-14)
      Det er gjort mye forskning på hvilke innvirkninger småbarnsforeldres mobilbruk kan ha på forelder-barn-interaksjoner og potensielt barns utvikling. Færre studier har undersøkt foreldres holdninger til mobilbruk og blant norske populasjoner er forskningen knapp. Vi gjennomførte en kvalitativ studie med semistrukturerte intervjuer for å undersøke hvilke holdninger småbarnsforeldre har rundt sin egen ...

    • Mammalian Atg8 proteins regulate lysosome and autolysosome biogenesis through SNAREs 

      Gu, Yuexi; Abudu, Yakubu Princely; Kumar, Suresh; Bissa, Bhawana; Choi, Seong Won; Jia, Jingyue; Lazarou, Michael; Eskelinen, Eeva-Liisa; Johansen, Terje; Deretic, Vojo (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-18)
      Mammalian homologs of yeast Atg8 protein (mAtg8s) are important in autophagy, but their exact mode of action remains ill‐defined. Syntaxin 17 (Stx17), a SNARE with major roles in autophagy, was recently shown to bind mAtg8s. Here, we identified LC3‐interacting regions (LIRs) in several SNAREs that broaden the landscape of the mAtg8‐SNARE interactions. We found that Syntaxin 16 (Stx16) and its cognate ...

    • Man Enough to Care: Masculinity Threat and Misfit of Men Studying Communal Occupations 

      Lund, Ingvild Marie Hansen (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2023-04-28)
      Fra en ung alder har menn internalisert kjønnsstereotypier av hva det vil si å være en "ekte" mann. Maskulinitetstrussel er frykten en mann opplever når de internaliserte kjønnsstereotypene ikke opprettholdes, de føler at maskuliniteten deres blir truet. I denne studien tar vi sikte på å undersøke om det å fremheve viktigheten av omsorgstrekk for mannlige studenter – men ikke kvinnelige studenter – ...

    • Management of bleeding risk in patients who receive anticoagulant therapy for venous thromboembolism: Communication from the ISTH SSC Subcommittee on Predictive and Diagnostic Variables in Thrombotic Disease 

      den Exter, Paul L.; Woller, Scott C.; Robert-Ebadi, Helia; Masias, Camila; Morange, Pierre-Emmanuel; Castelli, David; Hansen, John Bjarne; Geersing, Geert-Jan; Siegal, Deborah M.; de Wit, Kerstin; Klok, Frederikus A. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-07-20)
      Patients with acute venous thromboembolism (VTE) require anticoagulant therapy to prevent recurrent VTE and death, which exposes them to an inherent increased risk of bleeding. Identification of patients at high risk of bleeding, and mitigating this risk, is an essential component of the immediate and long-term therapeutic management of VTE. The bleeding risk can be estimated by either implicit ...
