Denne rapporten inneholder resultater fra perioden 16.03.2020 til 26.03.2020 i undersøkelsen og er ment som ...
    • Food recommendation using machine learning for physical activities in patients with type 1 diabetes 

      Ngo, Phuong; Tayefi, Maryam; Nordsletta, Anne Torill; Godtliebsen, Fred (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Physical activities have a significant impact on blood glucose homeostasis of patients with type 1 diabetes. Regular physical exercise provides many proven health benefits and is recommended as part of a healthy lifestyle. However, one of the main side effects of physical activities is hypoglycemia (low blood glucose). Fear of hypoglycemia generally leads to the patients not participating in ...
    • Automatic generation of fill-in-the-blank question with corpus-based distractors for e-assessment to enhance learning 

      Das, Bidyut; Majumder, Mukta; Phadikar, Santanu; Sekh, Arif Ahmed (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-09-10)
      Knowledge acquisition is the prime objective of a learner from an educational system and evaluating the learner's knowledge is the eventual goal of an examination process. This paper introduces a system which is able to produce fill‐in‐the‐blank questions to test the knowledge of a learner that he or she has accumulated after reading a course material. The question generation task is subdivided into ...
    • Forfatterens gjerninger. Upålitelig narrasjon i T. S. Eliots «Journey of the Magi»? 

      Gaasland, Rolf (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-01-15)
      The article adresses the literary theoretical issue of unreliable narration in first-person fictional narratives. The theoretical discussion is prefaced by an interpretation of T.S. Eliot’s narrative poem “Journey of the Magi”. The interpretation concludes that the narrator, contrary to critical consensus, qualifies as unreliable according to Wayne Booth’s original definition. Having thus opened ...
    • Being Googleable as an academic: it can be about sharing instead of branding 

      Hansen, Poul Henning Gustaf; Léger-St-Jean, Marie (Chronicle; Kronikk, 2019-09-24)
      Over the years, there have been loads of articles on how to “manage your digital identity” or to “brand yourself” to maximize your hireability. It makes it sound like very distasteful work, vain self-promotion geared at making capitalism happy. If you’re a student who’s looking into alt-ac career or an independent researcher, these might not seem pertinent. But that’s not just what being ...
    • Creating Learning Opportunities by Using Videoconferencing in Surgical Education 

      Warth, Line Lundvoll (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Access to mentors for education in surgical subspecialties is a challenge in many hospitals. Videoconferencing (VC) provides real-time communication between mentors and mentees despite dispersed geographical locations. In Norway, an educational pathway of a specific laparoscopic surgical procedure was carried out using VC. The surgical training lasted for three months and was video recorded. The ...
    • Evaluation of the water quality at Bogdalen watershed near Kvitfjell and Raudfjell wind farm area 

      Lu, Jinmei; Bui, Minh Tuan; Yuan, Fuqing (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Wind energy is one of the important renewable energies that get fast development in recent years. The development of wind turbines can have potential environmental impact on the surrounding environment. Especially when the wind turbines are built near the watersheds, water quality in the watershed may be degraded. In this study, the water quality in Bogdalen watershed that in or surrounding Kvitfjell ...
    • QresFEP: An Automated Protocol for Free Energy Calculations of Protein Mutations in Q 

      Jespers, Willem; Isaksen, Geir Villy; Andberg, Tor Arne Heim; Vasile, Silvana; van Veen, Amber; Åqvist, Johan; Brandsdal, Bjørn Olav; Gutiérrez-de-Terán, Hugo (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-08-22)
      Predicting the effect of single-point mutations on protein stability or protein−ligand binding is a major challenge in computational biology. Free energy calculations constitute the most rigorous approach to this problem, though the estimation of converged values for amino acid mutations remains challenging. To overcome this limitation, we developed tailored protocols to calculate free energy ...
    • The included outlaw: A study of the seclusion in Amalie Skram’s Professor Hieronimus 

      Ramberg, Ingri Løkholm (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-20)
      This article presents an analysis of Amalie Skram’s 1895 novel Professor Hieronimus, with an emphasis on the seclusion aspect of this patient narrative. In the article, I give a close reading of the novel where I make use of insights from theorists from different disciplines, such as Shoshana Felman, Erving Goffman and Giorgio Agamben. The intent of the analysis, is to show how Skram manages to ...

      Dawadi, Rangita (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2020-04-17)
      The present work has a focus on biochemical characterization of the human matrix metalloproteinase-9. First part of the investigation focuses on the enzymes ability to form a complex with the small proteoglycan serglycin. Here the focus was on which amino acids and regions in both proMMP-9 and serglycin are important for the complex formation. For that, recombinant full-length proMMP-9 and various ...

      Ervik, Bente; Nordøy, Tone; Andersen, Sigve (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      <i>Mer enn 20 år tilbake, hadde vi en ung mann med alvorlig kreftsykdom og spredning til høyre lår. Han hadde forsøkt mange behandlinger med kun kortvarig effekt. Sykdommen ga han en rekke plager som smerter, gang- vansker og store ulcerasjoner som var en ekstra utfordring pleiemessig. <p> Pasienten var gift, han var småbarnsfar og egentlig fra et annet sted i landet, men bodde nå på finnmarkskysten, ...
    • Distinct Host–Mycobacterial Pathogen Interactions between Resistant Adult and Tolerant Tadpole Life Stages of Xenopus laevis 

      Rhoo, Kun Hyoe; Edholm, Eva-Stina Isabella; Forzan, Maria J; Khan, Adil Mahboob; Waddle, Anthony W; Pavelka, Martin S; Robert, Jacques (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2019-11-15)
      <i>Mycobacterium marinum</i> is a promiscuous pathogen infecting many vertebrates, including humans, whose persistent infections are problematic for aquaculture and public health. Among unsettled aspects of host–pathogen interactions, the respective roles of conventional and innate-like T (iT) cells in host defenses against <i>M. marinum</i> remain unclear. In this study, we developed an infection ...
