In this chapter, we present a qualitative study on the leadership challenges in the municipal nursing homes. The aim is to develop knowledge on leadership challenges and the managerial discretions leaders employ to address the challenges. ... -
U–Pb dating of calcite in ancient carbonates for age estimates of syn- to post-depositional processes: a case study from the upper Ediacaran of Finnmark, Arctic Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-06-10)Results of <i>in situ</i> U–Pb dating of calcite spherulites, cone‐in‐cone (CIC) calcite and calcite fibres from a calcareous concretion of the upper Ediacaran of Finnmark, Arctic Norway, are reported. Calcite spherulites from the innermost layers of the concretion yielded a lower intercept age of 563 ± 70 Ma, which although imprecise, is within uncertainty of the age of sedimentation based on fossil ... -
V3 in Germanic: A comparison of urban vernaculars and heritage languages
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2018)It is well known that varieties of Germanic do not display a strict V2 system whereby the finite verb is in the second position in main clauses. In this paper, we compare the Germanic heritage language American Norwegian with the Germanic urban vernacular Kiezdeutsch. We focus on declarative V3 structures and compare V3 properties in Kiezdeutsch with data from American Norwegian across several ... -
Vaccines and Immunostimulants for finfish
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-29)Following a successful renal transplantation circulating markers of inflammation may remain elevated, and systemic inflammation is associated with worse clinical outcome in renal transplant recipients (RTRs). Vitamin D-receptor (VDR) activation is postulated to modulate inflammation and endothelial function. We aimed to explore if a synthetic vitamin D, paricalcitol, could influence systemic ... -
Vad hände med Johannes Schefferus bibliotek?
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2021)Mitt i Uppsala finns ett oansenligt, lågt hus som har stått på sin plats i hela 370 år: Genom 370 heta somrar och bitande kalla vintrar, vårstormar och höststormar, skyfall och stadsbränder, medan hus runt omkring kommit och gått, och stadens centrum sakta omvandlats till det vi har i dag, 2021. Johannes Schefferus (1621–1679) ”stenhus”, eller hans biblioteks- och museibyggnad, som vi talar om, är ... -
Validation of a questionnaire against clinical assessment in the diagnosis of asthma in school children
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014-10-08)<p><i>Aim: </i>A questionnaire has been used repeatedly in cross-sectional studies to determine the prevalence of asthma, allergic rhinoconjunctivitis (AR) and eczema among schoolchildren in Nordland County, Norway. The current study was designed to validate the questionnaire against clinical assessment as the diagnostic gold standard and to investigate the extent of possible misclassification. ... -
Validation of a SAR-only wind-vector retrieval against shipborne in situ wind observations in the European Arctic
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2024-01-05)Space-borne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) observations provide broad coverage of high-resolution snapshots of the sea surface conditions in polar regions. However, their potential has not yet been fully harnessed for meteorological applications. For instance, standard methods for SAR wind-vector retrieval rely on wind direction inputs from numerical weather prediction models, which hampers the ... -
Validation of Childhood Rare Epilepsy Social Impact Assessment (CRESIA) to Measure the Social and Family Impact of Rare Childhood Diseases with Epilepsy
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-13)This study addresses the social relevance of low-prevalence childhood diseases and reports the process of generation and validation of a tool to assess the social impact on the direct family environment and the social context of reference. The aim of the process of construction and validation of this instrument is to provide the field with a tool with the capacity to shed light on the ... -
Validation of prediction models of severe disease course and non-achievement of remission in juvenile idiopathic arthritis: part 1—results of the Canadian model in the Nordic cohort
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-12-05)<i>Background</i> - Models to predict disease course and long-term outcome based on clinical characteristics at disease onset may guide early treatment strategies in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Before a prediction model can be recommended for use in clinical practice, it needs to be validated in a different cohort than the one used for building the model. The aim of the current study was ... -
Validation of the Graded Prognostic Assessment for Melanoma Using Molecular Markers (Melanoma-molGPA).
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-03)Background: It has been suggested to replace the diagnosis-specific graded prognostic assessment (DS-GPA, based on performance status and number of brain metastases) for patients with primary malignant melanoma with the new Melanoma-molGPA. The latter is a more complex assessment, which also includes BRAF mutation status, age and extracranial metastases. To test the performance of the Melanoma-molGPA, ... -

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-11-10)Study Design - A cross-sectional study with a test–retest design.<p> <p>Objective - To translate and culturally adapt the numerical rating scale (NRS) for neck pain intensity and the Neck Disability Index (NDI), and asses their measurement properties in a Nepalese neck pain population.<p> <p>Summary of Background Data - Neck pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal disorders in Nepal. ... -
Validering av optimale mikronæringsstoff-nivå i laksefôr - ASSESSFEED
(Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2018)ASSESSFEED er et prosjekt utgått fra EU-prosjektet ARRAINA, med målsetning å validere nye anbefalinger for tilsetning av mikronæringsstoffer, særlig vannløselige vitaminer, i laksefôr. Det ble kjørt et fôingsforsøk der kontrollfôret (100 % NP) ble tilsatt mikronæringsstoffer iht. anbefalinger gitt i NRC (2011), som i stor grad bygger på forsøk med yngel av regnbueørret fra 1980-90-tallet. Forsøksfôret ... -

Vannforsyning og barnedødelighet i Tromsø omkring 1920
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-22)I 1919 bygde Tromsø kommune en demning i Slettaelva på den fjellrike Kvaløya vest for byen som de neste par årene ble koblet via et undersjøisk rør til byens vannforsyningssystem for å øke vannmengden og bedre kvaliteten på byens drikkevann. Nyttårsaften 1921 ble kvaløyvannet trykksatt i Tromsø sentrum. For å undersøke hvilken effekt dette hadde på barnedødeligheten, ble medisinalberetningene og ... -
Variability and decadal trends in the Isfjorden (Svalbard) ocean climate and circulation – An indicator for climate change in the European Arctic
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020)Isfjorden, a broad Arctic fjord in western Spitsbergen, has shown significant changes in hydrography and inflow of Atlantic Water (AW) the last decades that only recently have been observed in the Arctic Ocean north of Svalbard. Variability and trends in this fjord’s climate and circulation are therefore analysed from observational and reanalysis data during 1987 to 2017. Isfjorden experienced a ... -
Variability in Resting-State Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging: The Effect of Body Mass, Blood Pressure, Hematocrit, and Glycated Hemoglobin on Hemodynamic and Neuronal Parameters
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-13)Introduction: Replicability has become an increasing focus within the scientific communities with the ongoing ‘‘replication crisis.’’ One area that appears to struggle with unreliable results is resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI). Therefore, the current study aimed at improving the knowledge of endogenous factors that contribute to inter-individual variability. Methods: ... -
Variation in adjunct islands: The case of Norwegian
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-11)Finite adjunct clauses are often assumed to be among the strongest islands for filler–gap dependency creation cross-linguistically, but Kush, Lohndal & Sprouse (2019) found experimental evidence suggesting that finite conditional <i>om</i>-adjunct clauses are not islands for topicalization in Norwegian. To investigate the generality of these findings, we ran three acceptability judgment experiments ...
