Peer reviewing: a private affair between the individual researcher and the publishing houses, or a responsibility of the university?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017)Peer reviewing is mandatory for scientific journals as quality control of submitted manuscripts, for universities to rank applicants for scientific positions, and for funding agencies to rank grant applications. In spite of this deep dependency of peer reviewing throughout the entire academic realm, universities exhibit a peculiar lack of interest in this activity. The aim of this article is to show ... -
Physiological Changes in Subjects Exposed to Accidental Hypothermia: An Update
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-23)Background: Accidental hypothermia (AH) is an unintended decrease in body core temperature (BCT) to below 35°C. We present an update on physiological/pathophysiological changes associated with AH and rewarming from hypothermic cardiac arrest (HCA).<p> <p>Temperature Regulation and Metabolism: Triggered by falling skin temperature, Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone (TRH) from hypothalamus induces ... -

ST waveform analysis versus cardiotocography alone for intrapartum fetal monitoring: An updated systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-13)Introduction - ST waveform analysis (STAN) was introduced as an adjunct to cardiotocography (CTG) to improve neonatal and maternal outcomes.

ST waveform analysis vs. cardiotocography alone for intrapartum fetal monitoring: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015)Key message: ST waveform analysis is purposed to be better for labor surveillance than conventional CTG. We quantified the efficacy of these two methods, assessing quality of the scientific evidence with the GRADE tool, and determined that evidence is insufficient to justify the use of ST waveform analysis as intrapartum monitoring. -
