    • The importance of cultural awareness when planning and implementing telepsychiatric services in rural and remote areas 

      Acharibasam, Jeremiah; Wynn, Rolf (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-08-24)
      <p><i>Introduction</i>: Increasing populations and an increasing incidence of mental health problems challenge many developing countries, including Ghana. Long distances, financial limitations, lack of mental health personnel, and pessimism about the effectiveness of treatment, make it difficult for people to access help. In 2011, only 0.3% of Ghana’s 25 million population received psychiatric ...

    • The importance of loneliness in psychotic-like symptoms: Data from three studies 

      Le, Thanh P.; Cowan, Tovah; Schwartz, Elana K.; Elvevåg, Brita; Holmlund, Terje Bektesevic; Foltz, Peter W.; Barkus, Emma; Cohen, Alex S. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-19)
      Poor social connection or loneliness is a prominent feature of schizotypy and may exacerbate psychosis risk. Previous studies have examined the inter-relationships between loneliness and psychosis risk, but critically, they have largely been conducted in non-clinical samples or exclusively used laboratory questionnaires with limited consideration of the heterogeneity within schizotypy (i.e., positive, ...

    • Improved neurocognitive functions correlate with reduced inflammatory burden in atrial fibrillation patients treated with intensive cholesterol lowering therapy 

      Lappegård, Knut Tore; Pop-Purceleanu, Monica; van Heerde, Waander L.; Sexton, Joseph; Tendolkar, Indira; Pop, Gheorghe A. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with increased mortality and morbidity, including risk for cerebral macro- and microinfarctions and cognitive decline, even in the presence of adequate oral anticoagulation. AF is strongly related to increased inflammatory activity whereby anti-inflammatory agents can reduce the risk of new or recurrent AF. However, it is not known whether ...

    • Improving the Applicability of AI for Psychiatric Applications through Human-in-the-loop Methodologies 

      Chandler, Chelsea; Foltz, Peter W.; Elvevåg, Brita (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-26)
      Objectives: Machine learning (ML) and natural language processing have great potential to improve effciency and accuracy in diagnosis, treatment recommendations, predictive interventions, and scarce resource allocation within psychiatry. Researchers often conceptualize such an approach as operating in isolation without much need for human involvement, yet it remains crucial to harness human-inthe-loop ...

    • In vitro chondrogenic potency of surplus chondrocytes from autologous transplantation procedures does not predict short-term clinical outcomes 

      Islam, Md Ashraful; Fossum, Vegard; Hansen, Ann Kristin; Urbarova, Ilona; Knutsen, Gunnar; Martinez, Inigo Zubiavrre (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-01-10)
      <p><i>Background</i>: Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) has been used over the last two decades to treat focal cartilage lesions aiming to delay or prevent the onset of osteoarthritis; however, some patients do not respond adequately to the procedure. A number of biomarkers that can forecast the clinical potency of the cells have been proposed, but evidence for the relationship between in ...

    • In vitro host range, multiplication and virion forms of recombinant viruses obtained from co-infection in vitro with a vaccinia-vectored influenza vaccine and a naturally occurring cowpox virus isolate 

      Tryland, Morten; Okeke, Malachy Ifeanyi; Nilssen, Øivind; Moens, Ugo; Traavik, Terje (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2009-05-12)
      Background: Poxvirus-vectored vaccines against infectious diseases and cancer are currently under development. We hypothesized that the extensive use of poxvirus-vectored vaccine in future might result in co-infection and recombination between the vaccine virus and naturally occurring poxviruses, resulting in hybrid viruses with unpredictable characteristics. Previously, we confirmed that ...
