A randomised clinical trial on the impact of early intervention on parental child-rearing attitudes and cognitive, motor and behavioral outcomes in preterm infants.
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2011-09-23)
BACKGROUND: Preterm infants are at increased risk of cognitive problems/delay and behavioual problems in the long term. Studies have shown that their mothers are more overprotective, and find it hard to implement a nurturant child rearing practice compared to parents of term infants. To improve the parent-infant interaction and thereby influence infant development in a beneficial different early ...
Tn1546 is part of a larger plasmid-encoded genetic unit horizontally disseminated among clonal Enterococcus faecium lineages
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2010)
o determine the genetic composition of the first VanA-type plasmid (pIP816) reported, which was isolated from a clinical Enterococcus faecium (BM4147) strain in France in 1986, and to reveal the genetic units responsible for the dissemination of the vanA gene cluster by comparisons with current, published and additionally generated vanA-spanning plasmid sequences obtained from a heterogeneous E. ...

The relationship between internalizing and externalizing symptoms and cultural resilience factors in Indigenous Sami youth from Arctic Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)
Objectives. To examine whether enculturation factors, like cultural activities, ethnic pride and native language competence, are related to decreased internalizing and externalizing symptoms in Indigenous Sami youth from Arctic Norway. The impact of self-efficacy on the relationship between enculturation factors and mental health problems was also examined. Study design. Population-based, cross-sectional ...

Templates for reporting pre-hospital major incident medical management : systematic literature review
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
Introduction In 2010, a total of 385 natural disasters killed more than 297 000 people worldwide and affected over 217 million others. More standardised reporting of major incident management have been advocated in the previous years. Prevention, mitigation, preparedness and major incident response may be improved through collection and analysis of high-quality standardised data on medical management ...
Culturable autochthonous gut bacteria in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) fed diets with or without chitin. Characterization by 16S rRNA gene sequencing, ability to produce enzymes and in vitro growth inhibition of four fish pathogens
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)
The present investigation evaluated the effect of chitin (5% supplementation) on the adherent aerobic intestinal microbiota of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.). One hundred and seventy three isolates were isolated but 34 isolates died prior to positive identification. Sixty four out of 139 autochthonous gut bacteria were further identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and further tested for protease, ...
