In tissue characterization and cancer diagnostics, multimodal imaging has emerged as a powerful technique. Thanks to computational advances, large datasets can be exploited to discover patterns in pathologies and improve diagnosis. However, this requires efficient and scalable image retrieval methods. Cross-modality image retrieval is particularly challenging, since images of similar (or even the ...

Arctic sea ice mediates atmosphere-ocean momentum transfer, which drives upper ocean circulation. How Arctic Ocean surface stress and velocity respond to sea ice decline and changing winds under global warming is unclear. Here we show that state-of-the-art climate models consistently predict an increase in future (2015–2100) ocean surface stress in response to increased surface wind speed, declining ...

Pathloss quantifies the reduction in power density of a signal radiated from a transmitter. The attenuation is due to large-scale effects such as free-space propagation loss and interactions (e.g., penetration, reflection, and diffraction) of the signal with objects such as buildings, vehicles, trees, and pedestrians in the propagation environment. Many current or planned wireless communications ...

Finnmarksløpet er Europas lengste langdistanse hundeløp. Det gikk første gang av stabelen i 1981 og har gått hvert år siden, med unntak av pandemiåret 2021. Løpet har fått stor betydning for Finnmark og er med på å vise fram fylket for et stadig større publikum. Denne artikkelen løfter fram utviklingen fra å være et lite villmarksløp for noen få interesserte til å samle hele Finnmark i et av landsdelens ...

Currently available data show mixed results as to whether the processing of emotional information has the same characteristics in the native (L1) as in the second language (L2) of bilinguals. We conducted a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) experiment to shed light on the neurocognitive mechanisms underlying bilinguals’ emotional processing in L1 and L2 during an emotional interference ...

Background Knowledge about home range size is vital to understand social systems and population dynamics of small mammals, as well as dispersal and a species’ landscape use. Home ranges have been mapped for some species of voles (subfamily Microtinae) but remain virtually unknown for many species, including the grey-sided vole Craseomys rufocanus. <p>Results A small pilot study was carried out ...

Background: Childhood stunting has a long-term impact on cognitive development and overall well-being. Understanding varying stunting profiles is crucial for targeted interventions and effective policy-making. Therefore, our study aimed to identify the determinants and stunting risk profiles among 2-year-old children in Ethiopia.<p> <p>Methods and materials: A cross-sectional study was conducted ...

En mann i 70-årene med raskt progredierende metastatisk prostatakreft hadde mottatt kastrasjonsbehandling i fire år og utviklet kastrasjonsresistent sykdom. Videre hadde han effekt og god toleranse av abiraterontabletter i 3,5 år (daglig dose 1000 mg samt prednisolon 10 mg for å dempe bivirkninger). Abirateron ble seponert da det så tilkom sykdomsprogrediering med stigende prostataspesifikt antigen ...

Objective: To describe the needs for subacute inpatient rehabilitation and community-based healthcare services, rehabilitation, and social support in patients with moderate-to-severe traumatic injury in the first 6 months post-injury. Further, to explore associations between sociodemographic and clinical characteristics and unmet needs.<p> <p>Design: Multicentre prospective cohort study. <p>Subjects: ...

Background The global discourse on future health care emphasises that learning to collaborate across professions is crucial to assure patient safety and meet the changing demands of health care. The research on interprofessional education (IPE) is diverse but with gaps in curricula design and how IPE is enacted in practice.<p> <p>Purpose and aims This research project will identify. 1) how IPE ...
