Multiphysics based Modal and Harmonic Analysis of Axial Turbines
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-15)The presented work discusses the vibration behavior of an axial turbine, analyzed using the finite element method (FEM) using commercial software ANSYS®. The turbine was modeled as a 2-D plate type of structure discretized with 4-noded shell 63 elements to save computational time. Constraints were applied keeping in view the actual operating conditions. The turbine was modeled with more than one FE ... -
Drawing on the doctor-patient relationship in e-health services
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022)The doctor-patient relationship has been the cornerstone of medical practice. As e-health is coming to play an increasingly important role, it is necessary to consider how e-health can draw on, integrate and safeguard aspects of this relationship and thereby improve services and engage patients. -
Vekt og overvekt i SAMINOR
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2022-03-16)De fleste voksne i Norge (75 % av menn og 60 % av kvinner) er nå overvektige eller har fedme; de har kroppsmasseindeks (KMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2.

High-Definition Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Improves Delayed Memory in Alzheimer’s Disease Patients: A Pilot Study Using Computational Modeling to Optimize Electrode Position
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-14)Background: The optimal stimulation parameters when using transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to improve memory performance in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are lacking. In healthy individuals, inter-individual differences in brain anatomy significantly influence current distribution during tDCS, an effect that might be aggravated by variations in cortical atrophy in AD ... -
Expression and functions of long non-coding RNA NEAT1 and isoforms in breast cancer
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10-20)NEAT1 is a highly abundant nuclear architectural long non-coding RNA. There are two overlapping NEAT1 isoforms, NEAT1_1 and NEAT1_2, of which the latter is an essential scaffold for the assembly of a class of nuclear ribonucleoprotein bodies called paraspeckles. Paraspeckle formation is elevated by a wide variety of cellular stressors and in certain developmental processes, either through transcriptional ... -
Narrative care: Unpacking pandemic paradoxes
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2021-09-19)During the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, public health has issued three interrelated dominant narratives through social media and news outlets: First, to care for others, we must keep physically distant; second, we live in the same world and experience the same pandemic; and third, we will return to normal at some point. These narratives create complexities as they collide with the authors' ... -
Anti-β2-glycoprotein I autoantibodies influence thrombin generation parameters via various mechanisms
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-11-06)Introduction<p> Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterised by recurrent thrombotic events, pregnancy loss and thrombocytopenia and the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies (APL). The exact pathomechanism of APS is still unknown, thus we investigated the effect of anti-β2-glycoprotein I (anti-β2GPI) on thrombin generation in different plasma samples.<p> <p>Methods ... -
Variable V2 in Norwegian Heritage Language: An effect of crosslinguistic influence?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-05-28)This paper discusses possible attrition of verb second (V2) word order in Norwegian heritage language by investigating a corpus of spontaneous speech produced by 50 2nd–4th generation heritage speakers in North America. The study confirms previous findings that V2 word order is generally stable in heritage situations, but nevertheless finds approximately 10% V2 violations. The cases of non-V2 word ... -
Autobiografiske berøringsøyeblikk
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021)Autobiografiske berøringsøyeblikk. Denne artikkelen undersøker berøringens betydning i og potensiale for palliativ omsorg, sett i lys av dominansen i etisk og juridisk tenkning på bevisst livsopplevelse, autonomi og kognitiv samtykkekompetanse. Fire berøringsøyeblikk fra forfatterens biografi illustrerer at berøring er verdifull i ulike former for omsorg for personer som ikke i tilstrekkelig ... -
Drug-Eluting versus Bare-Metal Stents in Saphenous Vein Grafts Compared to Native Coronary Vessels: The Norwegian Coronary Stent Trial Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-01)Background: Drug-eluting stents (DES) reduce target lesion revascularization (TLR) with no effect on mortality or myocardial infarction (MI) compared to bare-metal stents (BMS) in native vessels. Randomized stent studies in saphenous vein grafts (SVG) are few and the reported effects are ambiguous. The Norwegian Coronary Stent Trial study is the first to randomize lesions to percutaneous coronary ... -
Drømmen om nye tenner
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021)Tannlegene vært opptatt av muligheten for å få dannet nye tenner lenge. Det har ført til et nøye studium av den embryonale tann- dannelsen for å kunne kopiere den eksperimentelt. Forskningen har imidlertid bare i liten grad kunnet anvende sine eksperimen- telle oppsett på mennesker, men har benyttet seg av dyr som mus, rotter, minigriser og hunder, enkelte ganger i kombinasjon med in vitro ... -
Dealing with racism: Colonial history and colonization of the mind in the autoethnographic and Indigenous film Sami Blood
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-29)This article explores how Sami Blood (2016), as an Indigenous film, addresses colonialism and its consequences. Sami Blood documents historical injustice, shame and how colonialism is internalized by the colonized, and mechanisms of systemic and individual racism. Based on analyses of the film, reviews and perspectives on colonialism and cinema, it is argued that Sami Blood contributes to ... -

The dataset consists of pre-defned native regions for 47,675 species, density ... -
Can we reliably measure cognitive effort? On the relation of implicit and explicit cognitive effort scales and tasks.
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2021-04-01)We tend to choose the action that is least demanding however measuring individual differences in the cost of cognitive effort can be elusive. We here report a set of five studies studying the relationship between four cognitive effort measures: the demand selection task, the cognitive effort discounting paradigm, a rationality battery to assess deliberate reasoning, and the Need for Cognition scale. ... -
"Doors started to appear:" A methodological framework for analyzing visuo-verbal data drawing on Roland Barthes's classification of text-image relations
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-30)Following a “visual turn” in qualitative methods, photographs and other forms of visual expression are increasingly used in conjunction with verbal data in social science research. According equal status to visual and verbal artifacts, however, poses significant methodological challenges. “Photo elicitation” methods, which typically privilege participants’ interpretations of photographs over the ... -

The soluble reticulophagy receptor CALCOCO1 is also a Golgiphagy receptor.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-24)Cellular stress response mechanisms typically increase organellar quantity and volume. To restore cellular homeostasis and organellar integrity, the surplus organelles are cleared by macroautophagy/autophagy, an intracellular process that shuttles cytoplasmic material to the lysosomes for degradation. The degradation is mediated by autophagy receptors that selectively link the degradable cargo to ...
