The LabBM score is an excellent survival prediction tool in patients undergoing palliative radiotherapy
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-16)Background and aim: The prognostic assessment of patients referred for palliative radiotherapy can be conducted by sitespecific scores. A quick assessment that would cover the whole spectrum could simplify the working day of clinicians who are not specialists for a particular disease site. This study evaluated a promising score, the LabBM (validated for brain metastases), in patients treated for ... -

METHODS We identified and reviewed the records of all Somali and Sudanese women who delivered at King Abdulaziz University Hospital, ... -
The LabPS score: Inexpensive, Fast, and Site-agnostic Survival Prediction
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-04)Objectives: To provide a widely applicable, blood-biomarker-based and performance-status-based prognostic model, which predicts the survival of patients undergoing palliative non-brain radiotherapy. This model has already been examined in a cohort of patients treated for brain metastases and performed well.<p> <p>Methods: This was a retrospective single-institution analysis of 375 patients, ... -
Lack of association between cluster headache and PER3 clock gene polymorphism
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-02-29)Background Cluster headache (CH) is regarded as a chronobiological disorder. The hypothalamic biological clock may thus be involved in the pathophysiology, but few studies have actually investigated this in CH patients. A variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphism of the PER3 clock gene has been associated to preferred daily rhythm (chronotype) in several studies. We aimed to study the ... -
Lactate gap: a diagnostic support in severe metabolic acidosis of unknown origin
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-07-24)Ethylene glycol poisoning is a medical emergency. The metabolites glycolate and glyoxylate give metabolic acidosis. Because of similar structure, these metabolites are misinterpreted as lactate by many point-of-care blood gas analyzers. The falsely high lactate values can lead to misdiagnosis, inappropriate laparotomies, and delayed antidotal therapy. As laboratory analyzers measure plasma lactate ... -
Laeverin Protein Expression in Normal and Preeclamptic Placentas using Tissue Microarray Analysis
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-01-21)<p><i>Introduction - </i>Laeverin is a placenta‐specific protein that is normally expressed in the plasma membrane of human trophoblasts. In previous studies, we showed higher expression levels of laeverin gene in preeclamptic compared with normal placentas and found that laeverin protein was ectopically expressed in the cytoplasm of the preeclamptic placentas. Our objective was to investigate ... -

Langtidseffekten av motiverende intervju på livsstilsendring - en systematisk oversiktsstudie
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-06-02)Bakgrunn: Motiverende intervju (MI) er en samtaleform enn bruker for å styrke menneskers indre motivasjon for ulike former for atferdsendring. Formålet med denne oppgaven var å se på langtidseffekten av MI på livsstilsendring. Metode: Oppgaven benyttet vanlige helseparametere som vekt, blodsukker, blodtrykk og lipidverdier som endemål på livsstilsendring . Det ble gjort et systematisk søk ... -
Langtidseffekten av refraktiv kirurgi for behandling av myopi
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2011-09-15)PROBLEMSTILLING: LASIK og overflatelaserbehandling er to operasjonsteknikker som brukes i behandling av myopi, hvorav LASIK er den mest utbredte. Denne studien ser nærmere på forutsigbarhet, stabilitet og effektivitet av LASIK over en 11- årsperiode, samt forutsigbarheten og stabiliteten av en ny overflatelaserbehandlingsteknikk – Custom transepithelial ”no-touch” (cTEN) over en ett-årsperiode. ... -

Language of motivation and emotion in an internet support group for smoking cessation: Explorative use of automated content analysis to measure regulatory focus
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014)The present study describes a novel approach to the identification of the motivational processes in text data extracted from an Internet support group (ISG) for smoking cessation. Based on the previous findings that a “prevention” focus might be more relevant for maintaining behavior change, it was hypothesized that 1) language use (ie, the use of emotional words) signaling a “promotion” focus would ... -
Large scale cultivation of microalgae at Finnfjord AS: The effect of addition of CO2 and flue gas on lipid production and fatty acid composition
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2018-05-15)Background: This master’s thesis was a part of a project involving mass cultivation of microalgae at the smelting plant Finnfjord AS. Microalgae are primary producers of the important omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids EPA and DHA. At Finnfjord, the algae use CO2 from the flue gas for their production of lipid and protein rich biomass. The algal biomass can potentially function well as ...
