Rapid Colorimetric pH-Responsive Gold Nanocomposite Hydrogels for Sensing Applications
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-27)Surface functionalization of metallic nanoparticles (NPs) with external groups can be engineered to fabricate sensors that are responsive to various stimuli like temperature, pH, and numerous ions. Herein, we report the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) functionalized with 3-mercaptopropionic acid (GNPs-MPA) and the doping of these nanoparticles into hydrogel materials using the ... -
Addressing Uncertainty by Designing an Intelligent Fuzzy System to Help Decision Support Systems for Winter Road Maintenance
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-17)One of the main challenges in developing efficient and effective winter road maintenance is to design an accurate prediction model for the road surface friction coefficient. A reliable and accurate prediction model of road surface friction coefficient can help decision support systems to significantly increase traffic safety, while saving time and cost. High dynamicity in weather and road surface ... -
Explaining sex differences in risk of bloodstream infections using mediation analysis in the population-based HUNT study in Norway
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-19)Previous studies indicate sex differences in incidence and severity of bloodstream infections (BSI). We examined the effect of sex on risk of BSI, BSI mortality, and BSI caused by the most common infecting bacteria. Using causal mediation analyses, we assessed if this effect is mediated by health behaviours (smoking, alcohol consumption), education, cardiovascular risk factors (systolic blood pressure, ... -
Clinical characteristics, mortality and pain tolerance in stable versus acute presentation of coronary heart disease
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2022-09-30)<p>Despite immense progress in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of coronary heart disease, several challenges remain. In more than half of patients referred to coronary angiography for stable and unstable angina, no obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is found. At the same time, some patients present for the first time with already extensive CAD. Further, the management of unstable ... -

A new Method for Estimating 3-Dimensional Ionospheric Currents from Ground-Based Magnetometers
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-07-17)The ionosphere is a region of the upper atmosphere where a significant rate of photo-ionisation from solar ultraviolet radiation cause an increased plasma density. In this region a system of electrical currents flow, driven by electric fields generated by fluctuating dynamics within the Earths magnetosphere. These fluctuating dynamics are caused by interactions between the magnetosphere and the solar ... -
Deep Representation-aligned Graph Multi-view Clustering for Limited Labeled Multi-modal Health Data
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-06-01)Today, many fields are characterised by having extensive quantities of data from a wide range of dissimilar sources and domains. One such field is medicine, in which data contain exhaustive combinations of spatial, temporal, linear, and relational data. Often lacking expert-assessed labels, much of this data would require analysis within the fields of unsupervised or semi-supervised learning. Thus, ... -

Prevalence, vascular complications, and level of health care treatment in individuals with type 2 and type 1 diabetes mellitus
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2022-10-04)The total prevalence of diabetes and vascular complications is increasing. Consequently, it is important to provide diabetes treatment according to the National clinical guideline for the management of diabetes and allocate individuals to the right level of health care in line with the National guideline for prioritization in specialist health care – Endocrinology and endocrine surgery. We used data ... -
Imaging the Effects of Whole-Body Vibration on the Progression of Hepatic Steatosis by Quantitative Ultrasound Based on Backscatter Envelope Statistics
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-29)Hepatic steatosis causes nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Whole-body vibration (WBV) has been recommended to allow patients who have difficulty engaging in exercise to improve the grade of hepatic steatosis. This study proposed using ultrasound parametric imaging of the homodyned K (HK) distribution to evaluate the effectiveness of WBV treatments in alleviating hepatic steatosis. Sixty mice were ... -
Urban Neighbourhood Environments, Cardiometabolic Health and Cognitive Function: A National Cross-Sectional Study of Middle-Aged and Older Adults in Australia
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-07)Population ageing and urbanisation are global phenomena that call for an understanding of the impacts of features of the urban environment on older adults’ cognitive function. Because neighbourhood characteristics that can potentially have opposite effects on cognitive function are interdependent, they need to be considered in conjunction. Using data from an Australian national sample of 4141 adult ... -

Dynamikken i en språkendringsprosess: Bortfall av hunkjønnsformer i norsk
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-12)Det finnes betydelig regional og sosiolingvistisk variasjon i genusssystemet inorsk, hovedsakelig når det gjelder hunkjønnskategorien. Mange morsmåls-talere av norsk har et robust tregenussystem (hankjønn, hunkjønn og intetkjønn),mens andre har et system med kun to genus (felleskjønn og intetkjønn), der alleeller de fleste hunkjønnsformene er erstattet av hankjønnsformer. Uavhengig avdialekt er alle ... -
Knut Hamsun´s Segelfoss Books. A Green Criticism of the Consumer Society?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05)The novels of the Norwegian Nobel Prize winner Knut Hamsun can be seen as an ongoing discussion with modernity. In some parts his critique is reactionary, in other parts worth listening to. This article deals with his Segelfoss novels, Hamsun’s satirical representation of the commodity trade within the emerging capitalist market and the role of the consumer. The novels may be read as early and ... -
