      The Pathology Atlas is an open-access database that reports the prognostic value of protein-coding transcripts in 17 cancers, including head and neck cancer. However, cancers of the various head and neck anatomical sites are specific biological entities. Thus, the aim of the present study was to validate promising prognostic markers for head and neck cancer reported in the Pathology Atlas in oral ...

    • Validation of sick leave measures: self-reported sick leave and sickness benefit data from a Danish national register compared to multiple workplace-registered sick leave spells in a Danish municipality 

      Stapelfeldt, Christina Malmose; Jensen, Chris; Andersen, Niels Trolle; Fleten, Nils; Nielsen, Claus Vinther (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      Previous validation studies of sick leave measures have focused on self-reports. Register-based sick leave data are considered to be valid; however methodological problems may be associated with such data. A Danish national register on sickness benefit (DREAM) has been widely used in sick leave research. On the basis of sick leave records from 3,554 and 2,311 eldercare workers in 14 different ...

    • Variation in Genetic Mechanisms for Plumage Polymorphism in Skuas (Stercorarius) 

      Janssen, Kirstin; Bustnes, Jan Ove; Mundy, Nicholas I (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-03)
      Coloration is evolutionarily labile and so provides an excellent trait for examining the repeatability of evolution. Here, we investigate the repeatability of the evolution of polymorphic variation in ventral plumage coloration in skuas (Stercorarius: Stercorariidae). In 2 species, arctic (S. parasiticus) and pomarine skuas (S. pomarinus), plumage polymorphism was previously shown to be ...

    • Vasopressin impairs brain, heart and kidney perfusion: an experimental study in pigs after transient myocardial ischemia 

      Müller, Stig; How, Ole-Jakob; Hermansen, Stig Eggen; Stenberg, Thor Allan; Sager, Georg; Myrmel, Truls (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2008-02-21)
      Introduction: Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is increasingly used to restore mean arterial pressure (MAP) in low-pressure shock states unresponsive to conventional inotropes. This is potentially deleterious since AVP is also known to reduce cardiac output by increasing vascular resistance. The effects of AVP on blood flow to vital organs and cardiac performance in a circulation altered by cardiac ...

    • The VEGF- and PDGF-family of angiogenic markers have prognostic impact in soft tissue sarcomas arising in the extremities and trunk 

      Kilvær, Thomas Karsten; Smeland, Eivind; Valkov, Andrey Yurjevich; Sørbye, Sveinung Wergeland; Bremnes, Roy M.; Busund, Lill-Tove; Dønnem, Tom (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014)
      Background: Soft-tissue sarcomas are rare malignant tumors of mesenchymal lineage that can arise in any part of the body. Prognosis, and hence also treatment may vary according to histologic subtype and localization. Angiogenesis is the process of forming new blood vessels from pre-existing ones. The deregulation of this process is thought to be an important step in malignant transformation. This ...

      Waterloo, Svanhild Haugnes; Søgaard, Anne Johanne; Ahmed, Luai Awad; Damsgård, Elin; Morseth, Bente; Emaus, Nina (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Health-related quality of life (HRQL) may be associated with increased mortality in the elderly. The effect of prevalent vertebral fractures on HRQL in elderly women and men is not well described. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between prevalent vertebral fractures and back pain, neck pain, and HRQL in elderly women and men, and to study possible gender differences in the ...

    • Vet brukerne hva de gjør? 

      Salamonsen, Anita (Chronicle; Kronikk, 2013-02-06)
      Nordmenns bruk av alternativ behandling er stadig under debatt blant leger, alternative behandlere og forskere, senest i forbindelse med NRK-programmet Folkeopplysningen. Det heteste temaet er om det finnes holdbar vitenskapelig dokumentasjon for at alternative behandlingsformer virker. Mange ser et paradoks i at alternativ behandling til tross for mangelfull dokumentasjon omsettes for milliardbeløp ...

      Smedsrød, Bård; Longva, Leif; Frantsvåg, Jan Erik (Chronicle; Kronikk, 2018-02-27)
      <i>Ingress</i>: Offentlig finansierte forskere skriver og kvalitetssikrer vitenskapelige artikler. Så tar et tidsskrift over alle økonomiske rettigheter. I neste omgang må forskerne kjøpe tilbake adgangen til de samme artiklene.

    • What Do GPs Actually Know About Their Patients As Persons? 

      Mjølstad, Bente Prytz; Kirkengen, Anna Luise; Getz, Linn; Hetlevik, Irene (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013-09-29)
      Background and Aims: Life experience and existential circumstances have an impact on health. Within medicine, however, the significance to patient care of person-related, biographical knowledge receives only rudimentary emphasis and its substantial theoretical underpinnings are inadequately understood and infrequently applied. This study explores the types and extent of some Norwegian general ...

    • What professional activities do general practitioners find most meaningful? Cross sectional survey of Norwegian general practitioners 

      Halvorsen, Peder Andreas; Edwards, A.; Aaraas, Ivar Johannes; Aasland, Olaf Gjerløw; Kristiansen, Ivar Sønbø (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Health reforms in many countries affect the scope and nature of primary care. General Practitioners (GPs) are expected to spend more time developing public health, preventive health care, coordination of care and teamwork. We aimed to explore which professional activities GPs consider to be meaningful and how they would like to prioritise tasks. In a cross sectional online survey 3,270 GPs were ...

    • 'When coercion moves into your home’ – a qualitative study of patient experiences with outpatient commitment in Norway 

      Riley, Henriette; Høyer, Georg; Lorem, Geir F (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014)
      The use of coercion on people with mental health problems is a serious intervention, and a reduction in its use is a declared goal in mental healthcare. Yet, many countries have introduced expanded powers of coercion in recent years, including outpatient commitment (OC). However, the evidence of the effectiveness of OC is inconclusive, and little is known about how patients experience OC schemes. ...

    • Which Sámi? Sámi inclusion criteria in population-based studies of Sámi health and living conditions in Norway - an exploratory study exemplified with data from the SAMINOR study 

      Pettersen, Torunn; Brustad, Magritt (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Background: In a situation where national censuses do not record information on ethnicity, studies of the indigenous Sámi people’s health and living conditions tend to use varying Sámi inclusion criteria and categorizations. Consequently, the basis on which Sámi study participants are included and categorized when Sámi health and living conditions are explored and compared differs. This may influence ...
