Raskere diagnostisering og bedre kvalitet i oppfølgingen av trigeminale autonome hodepiner er mulig – og nødvendig.

Recent research highlighted significant marine biological activity during the Arctic winter, with poorly known implications for the biological carbon pump. We used moored instruments to (1) track the development of the pelagic food web of a high-Arctic marine ecosystem from winter to spring, and (2) assess the role of zooplanktonmediated processes in the sinking export of particulate organic carbon ...

Extracellular matrix diseases like fibrosis are elusive to diagnose early on, to avoid complete loss of organ function or even cancer progression, making early diagnosis crucial. Imaging the matrix densities of proteins like collagen in fixed tissue sections with suitable stains and labels is a standard for diagnosis and staging. However, fine changes in matrix density are difficult to realize by ...

Background Multimodal breast cancer treatment may cause side effects reflected in patient-reported outcomes and/or symptom scores at the time of treatment planning for adjuvant radiotherapy. In our department, all patients have been assessed with the Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS; a questionnaire addressing 11 major symptoms and wellbeing on a numeric scale of 0–10) at the time of ...

This study demonstrates ways of teaching creative methods in order to generate ideas for a project event and reveals project management students’ learning experiences and perceptions of usefulness during the process. Qualitative interviews were conducted with eight students on a project management course at a higher education institution in Norway. We provide a description and a detailed illustration ...

Child neglect is a significant social problem with severe consequences for individuals and society. This study explores how intergenerational transmission of grandparental child neglect affects grandchildren’s mental health in adulthood. We utilize a three-generational dataset from the Tromsø Study and estimate a linear probability model to find the distinct roles of both maternal and paternal ...

The push broom design of an underwater hyperspectral imaging (UHI) instrument makes it possible to measure angle-resolved spectral radiance L(λ)in a plane. We describe the characterization of a commercial UHI instrument (UHI-4, Ecotone AS, Norway) and the spectral, geometric, and radiometric calibration transfer for measuring L(λ) in absolute units [µW cm⁻² nm⁻¹ sr⁻¹ ]. ...

Coastal and adjacent shelf waters are generally highly productive ecosystems harboring important ecological processes and exposed to a range of anthropogenic pressures from land-based and marine sectors. Ensuring that the cumulative pressures from human activities do not cause unacceptable, permanent harm to the ecosystem is challenging but crucial for sustainable management of these regions. ...

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are synthetic chemicals used in various industrial and consumer products. They have gained attention due to their ubiquitous occurrence in the environment and potential for adverse effects on human health, often linked to immune suppression, hepatotoxicity, and altered cholesterol metabolism. This study aimed to explore the impact of ten individual PFAS, ...

Sea-ice microalgae are a key source of energy and nutrient supply to polar marine food webs, particularly during spring, prior to open-water phytoplankton blooms. The nutritional quality of microalgae as a food source depends on their biomolecular (lipid:protein:carbohydrate) composition. In this study, we used synchrotron-based Fourier transform infra-red microspectroscopy (s-FTIR) to measure the ...
