Updates on old and weary haematopoiesis
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-08-29)Blood formation, or haematopoiesis, originates from haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), whose functions and maintenance are regulated in both cell- and cell non-autonomous ways. The surroundings of HSCs in the bone marrow create a specific niche or microenvironment where HSCs nest that allows them to retain their unique characteristics and respond rapidly to external stimuli. Ageing is accompanied ... -
Upregulation of miR-181c inhibits chemoresistance by targeting ST8SIA4 in chronic myelocytic leukemia
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016)Chemotherapy resistance frequently drives tumor progression. Increased expression of ST8SIA4 has been reported in diverse carcinomas and highly correlates with leukemia multidrug resistance (MDR). MicroRNAs (miRNA) are widely recognized as key players in cancer progression and drug resistance. Here, to explore whether miRNA modulates the sensitivity of chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) to chemotherapeutic ... -

Use of Complementary and Alternative Medicine Among Patients: Classification Criteria Determine Level of Use
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2008)Background and objectives: Self-reported use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) among patients varies widely between studies, possibly because the definition of a CAM user is not comparable. This makes it difficult to compare studies. The aim of this study is to present a six-level model for classifying patients' reported exposure to CAM. Prayer, physical exercise, special diets, ... -
Use of complementary and alternative medicine at Norwegian and Danish hospitals
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)Several studies have found that a high proportion of the population in western countries use complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). However, little is known about whether CAM is offered in hospitals. The aim of this study was to describe to what extent CAM is offered in Norwegian and Danish hospitals and investigate possible changes in Norway since 2001. A one-page questionnaire was sent ... -
Use of Health care in the main area of Sami habitation in Norway : catching up with national expenditure rates
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)For many years political and professional concerns have centred on the health service access of Norway’s modern Indigenous Sami people. Thirty years ago, a study determined that a low rate of health expenditure on Sami patients had lead to inferior health services for the Sami people, with their average consultation rate 6 times lower than the Norwegian national average. Since 1980, there have been ... -
Use of Peptide Arrays for Identification and Characterization of LIR Motifs
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-01-05)The mammalian ATG8 proteins (LC3A-C/GABARAP, GABARAPL1, and GABARAPL2) are small ubiquitin-like proteins critically involved in macroautophagy. Their processed C-termini are posttranslationally conjugated to a phosphatidylethanolamine moiety, enabling their insertion into the lipid bilayers of both the inner and outer membranes of the forming autophagosomes. The ATG8s bind a diverse selection of ... -

Vaccine Induced Immune Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia Causing a Severe Form of Cerebral Venous Thrombosis With High Fatality Rate: A Case Series
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-07-30)During a 2-week period, we have encountered five cases presenting with the combination of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), intracerebral hemorrhage and thrombocytopenia. A clinical hallmark was the rapid and severe progression of disease in spite of maximum treatment efforts, resulting in fatal outcome in for 4 out of 5 patients. All cases had received ChAdOx1 nCov-19 vaccine 1–2 weeks earlier and ... -
Vaksine og screening : ja takk, begge deler!

Validation of Selected Head and Neck Cancer Prognostic Markers from the Pathology Atlas in an Oral Tongue Cancer Cohort
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-05-14)The Pathology Atlas is an open-access database that reports the prognostic value of protein-coding transcripts in 17 cancers, including head and neck cancer. However, cancers of the various head and neck anatomical sites are specific biological entities. Thus, the aim of the present study was to validate promising prognostic markers for head and neck cancer reported in the Pathology Atlas in oral ... -
Validation of sick leave measures: self-reported sick leave and sickness benefit data from a Danish national register compared to multiple workplace-registered sick leave spells in a Danish municipality
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)Previous validation studies of sick leave measures have focused on self-reports. Register-based sick leave data are considered to be valid; however methodological problems may be associated with such data. A Danish national register on sickness benefit (DREAM) has been widely used in sick leave research. On the basis of sick leave records from 3,554 and 2,311 eldercare workers in 14 different ... -

Variation in Genetic Mechanisms for Plumage Polymorphism in Skuas (Stercorarius)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-03)Coloration is evolutionarily labile and so provides an excellent trait for examining the repeatability of evolution. Here, we investigate the repeatability of the evolution of polymorphic variation in ventral plumage coloration in skuas (Stercorarius: Stercorariidae). In 2 species, arctic (S. parasiticus) and pomarine skuas (S. pomarinus), plumage polymorphism was previously shown to be ... -
Vasopressin impairs brain, heart and kidney perfusion: an experimental study in pigs after transient myocardial ischemia
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2008-02-21)Introduction: Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is increasingly used to restore mean arterial pressure (MAP) in low-pressure shock states unresponsive to conventional inotropes. This is potentially deleterious since AVP is also known to reduce cardiac output by increasing vascular resistance. The effects of AVP on blood flow to vital organs and cardiac performance in a circulation altered by cardiac ... -
The VEGF- and PDGF-family of angiogenic markers have prognostic impact in soft tissue sarcomas arising in the extremities and trunk
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014)Background: Soft-tissue sarcomas are rare malignant tumors of mesenchymal lineage that can arise in any part of the body. Prognosis, and hence also treatment may vary according to histologic subtype and localization. Angiogenesis is the process of forming new blood vessels from pre-existing ones. The deregulation of this process is thought to be an important step in malignant transformation. This ...
