Health Literacy and Health-Related Habits among Conscripts in the Norwegian Armed Forces—A Cross-Sectional Survey
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-21)Introduction - Although health information is widely available to the Norwegian population a lack of health literacy is still common and considered a public health challenge. However, there is limited information on the health literacy of the adolescent population in Norway. The purpose of this pilot study was to assess health literacy and self-reported health habits among soldiers in basic military ... -
The effects of biomass depth distribution on phytoplankton spring bloom dynamics and composition in an Arctic fjord
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-12-10)Fjord systems are among the most productive and best described of Arctic marine habitats. Contributing substantially to that overall productivity, spring phytoplankton blooms are one of the most important features of fjord systems and of mid- and high-latitude oceans in general. Understanding specific mechanisms that control the timing, magnitude, and composition of these blooms is among the most ... -
Under the cover of ice: Trematode infections affect survival and growth of wintering mussels
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-07-25)Parasites play many regulating roles that are increasingly recognized in different ecosystems. In coastal ecosystems, the trematode Himasthla elongata infects blue mussel Mytilus edulis, a foundation species that shapes the functioning of intertidal communities. Although the largest impacts of infections occur during the summer months, the parasites form long-lived cysts that can be harmful to their ... -

Reflections on the status and future of continuous professional development: Scandinavian anesthesiologists' view
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-07)Continuous professional development (CPD) refers to the ongoing process by which healthcare professionals maintain, refine, and broaden their knowledge, skills, and competencies throughout their careers. CPD is essential for safe patient care. A recent systematic review revealed significant variations in both the requirements for CPD and the methods used to evaluate the outcome of CPD.1 In certain ... -
Agreement Between the 2- and 3-Step Methods for Identifying Subtle Menstrual Disturbances
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-07-23)Recent methodological recommendations suggest the use of the “3-step method,” consisting of calendar-based counting, urinary ovulation testing, and serum blood sampling, for the identification of subtle menstrual disturbances (SMDs). However, the use of the 3-step method is not always feasible, so a less demanding combination of calendar-based counting and urinary ovulation testing, that is, the ... -
Comprehensive Analysis of Blood Test Results Predicting Prognosis in Patients Undergoing Whole-brain Radiotherapy for Brain Metastases
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-05-31)Background/Aim: Blood tests, such as those included in the validated LabBM score (laboratory parameters in patients with brain metastases) predict survival after treatment of brain metastases. The model incorporates five test results [serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), C-reactive protein (CRP), albumin, platelets and hemoglobin]. However, many other abnormalities, albeit less well-studied, may be ... -
Human activities shape global patterns of decomposition rates in rivers
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-05-30)Rivers and streams contribute to global carbon cycling by decomposing immense quantities of terrestrial plant matter. However, decomposition rates are highly variable and large-scale patterns and drivers of this process remain poorly understood. Using a cellulose-based assay to reflect the primary constituent of plant detritus, we generated a predictive model (81% variance explained) for cellulose ... -
A comparative analysis of life-history features and adaptive strategies of Arctic and subarctic seal species-who will win the climate change challenge?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-12-09)Understanding and predicting species range shifts is crucial for conservation amid global warming. This study analyzes life-history traits of four seal species (ringed (Pusa hispida (Schreber, 1775)), bearded (Erignathus barbatus (Erxleben, 1777)), harp (Pagophilus groenlandicus (Erxleben, 1777)), and harbour (Phoca vitulina Linnaeus, 1758) seals) in the Canadian Arctic using data from Inuit subsistence ... -

Are nuclear masks all you need for improved out-of-domain generalisation? A closer look at cancer classification in histopathology
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024)Domain generalisation in computational histopathology is challenging because the images are substantially affected by differences among hospitals due to factors like f ixation and staining of tissue and imaging equipment. We hypothesise that focusing on nuclei can improve the out-of-domain (OOD) generalisation in cancer detection. Wepropose a simple approach to improve OOD generalisation for cancer ... -
GEOMETRIC INTEGRATION ON SYMMETRIC SPACES
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01)We consider geometric numerical integration algorithms for differential equations evolving on symmetric spaces. The integrators are constructed from canonical operations on the symmetric space, its Lie triple system (LTS), and the exponential from the LTS to the symmetric space. Examples of symmetric spaces are n-spheres and Grassmann manifolds, the space of positive definite symmetric matrices, ... -
Death-is-life-enhancing: Adaptation and validation of the Norwegian Death Mindsets Measure (NDMM)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-07-01)While existing psychological frameworks and their accompanying measures focus on death as anxiety-inducing and debilitating, we highlight an overlooked perspective of death—that death can be a basis for living with more meaning and presence. The present research adapts and validates the Death Mindsets Measure (DMM), which assesses the mindset that “death-is-life-enhancing,” for a Norwegian context. ... -
Preliminary characterization and evaluation of local concrete sludges for use as supplementary cementitious materials
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-01-31)Concrete sludge (CS) is an emerging supplementary cementitious material (SCMs). However, the diverse range of SCMs and their various sources for each necessitate initial characterization and evaluate the potential of CS as a SCM. In this study, CS were collected from seven different concrete producers (designated as CS1 to CS7) in the Northern Norway region. This preliminary characterization aims ... -

Association Between GABRG2 and Self-Rating of the Effects of Alcohol in a French Young Adult Sample
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025-01-24)Purpose: Alcohol use is a leading risk factor for preventable death, injury, and disease globally. Low sensitivity to the effects of alcohol is influenced by genes and predicts risk for harmful alcohol use and alcohol use disorder (AUD). Alcohol induces effects partly by modulation of gamma-aminobutyric acid receptors type A (GABAARs). This study investigates the relationship between genetic ... -
