    • The ATLET study: Can subjects with long-standing motor incomplete spinal cord injury learn to walk? A randomized clinical trial 

      Piira, Anu Mirjam (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2020-05-19)
      Body-weight supported locomotor training (BWSLT) has been used to improve walking function in subjects with incomplete Spinal Cord Injuries (SCI), but randomized controlled trials (RCTs) among subjects with long-standing (>2 years) incomplete SCI and poor walking function are scarce. This research aims to describe the methodology and report the results from two parallel, but independent, single-blinded ...

    • Some new Fourier inequalities for unbounded orthogonal systems in Lorentz-Zygmund spaces 

      Akishev, Gabdolla; Lukkassen, Dag; Persson, Lars Erik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-03-20)
      In this paper we prove some essential complements of the paper (J. Inequal. Appl. 2019:171, 2019) on the same theme. We prove some new Fourier inequalities in the case of the Lorentz–Zygmund function spaces L q,r (logL ) α Lq,r(log⁡L)α involved and in the case with an unbounded orthonormal system. More exactly, in this paper we prove and discuss some new Fourier inequalities of this type for ...

    • "I will teach you differences": A meta-theoretical approach to narrative theory 

      Greve, Anniken (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-02)
      The article seeks to explore sameness and difference in narrative theory by way of shifting the emphasis from the narratives themselves to the research acts we perform on narratives. It proposes a model for analyzing research acts. Applying this model to various research acts in narrative theory it shows that what it implies to look for sameness and difference within narratives will vary with the ...

    • Sysselmannen på Svalbard - fra tradisjonell politimester til moderne miljøvokter. En studie av endringsforløpet i denne statsetaten 

      Riise, Elisabeth (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2000)
      Longyearbyen ligger tolv grader sør for Nordpolen, noe som i seg selv gjør området spesielt. Byen utgjør imidlertid bare en brøkdel av det enorme landområdet Norge har suverenitet over i nord. De juridiske forholdene rundt det norske herredømme over øygruppen er også av en slik karakter at administrasjonen på stedet skiller seg fra det som er vanlig på fastlandet. Oppgavens tema er Sysselmannen ...

    • Associations between self-compassion and complicated grief symptoms in bereaved individuals: An exploratory study 

      Vara, Helge; Thimm, Jens (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-08)
      Grief is a normal and natural response to the loss of a loved one that is characterized by a broad range of emotional, behavioral, cognitive, and physiological symptoms. For most bereaved, these symptoms abate over time as the individual comes to terms with the loss. However, about 10% of the bereaved experience a persistent and debilitating grief reaction, a condition that has been termed complicated ...

    • On sea-ice forecasting 

      Fritzner, Sindre Markus (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2020-05-15)
      Accurate sea-ice prediction is essential for safe operations in the Arctic and potentially also for weather forecast at high-latitudes. The increasing number of sea-ice related satellite observations in the Arctic can be used to improve the model predictions through data assimilation. For sea ice, sea-ice concentration (SIC) observations have been available for many years. Observational information ...

    • Main-Group-Element Isophlorin Complexes Revisited: The Question of a Subvalent Central Atom 

      Conradie, Jeanet; Brothers, Penelope Jane; Ghosh, Abhik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-15)
      A careful density functional theory reexamination of the geometric and electronic structures of reduced main-group porphyrin complexes E(Por)L2 (E = Si or Ge; L = pyridine or tetrahydrofuran), B2(Por), and C2(Por) has confirmed these as pure isophlorin derivatives with normal-valent coordinated central atoms. Only axially unligated Ge(Por) and the dications [B2(Por)]2+ and [C2(Por)]2+ feature aromatic ...

      Alemayehu, Abraham; McCormick, Laura J; Vazquez Lima, Hugo; Ghosh, Abhik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-02-07)
      A series of metal–metal bonded osmium corrole dimers, {Os[TpXPC]}2, were synthesized in reasonably good yields (35–46%) via the interaction of the corresponding free-base meso-tris(p-X-phenyl)corroles (H3[TpXPC], X = CF3, H, CH3, and OCH3), Os3(CO)12, and potassium carbonate in 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene under an inert atmosphere at 180 °C over several hours. The complexes are only the second class of ...

    • Sulfoxonium Ylide Derived Metal Carbenoids in Organic Synthesis 

      Vaitla, Janakiram; Bayer, Annette (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-12-12)
      As pioneered by Corey and Chaykovsky, sulfoxonium ylides have had widespread application in organic synthesis for more than a half century. In most of the reactions, sulfoxonium ylides were used to react with electrophiles. Under suitable reaction conditions these ylides can generate metal carbenoids and react with nucleophiles. By combining the typical reactivity of sulfoxonium ylides with ...

    • The Political Economy of Memory Production in the Videogames Industry 

      Hammar, Emil (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-29)
      Following the materialist approaches to contemporary digital memory- making, this article explores how unequal access to memory production in videogames is determined along economic and cultural lines. Based on semi-structured qualitative interviews with different European, Asian and North American historical game developers, I make the case for how materialist and cultural aspects of videogame ...

    • Pårørendeinvolvering i planlegging og gjennomføring av helsehjelp til personer med frontotemporal demens 

      Rondestvedt, June; Hjertstrøm, Helle Kise; Larsen, Lill Sverresdatter (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Several health policy documents emphasize the need for more knowledge regarding family caregiver`s involvement in implementation of healthcare services for people with dementia. This article examines how family caregivers of people with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) experience involvement, and furthermore investigates whether an activity perspective can be useful to understand barriers to family ...

    • Populasjonssykluser hos rype – stor variasjon i rom og tid 

      Henden, John-André; Fuglei, Eva; Ims, Rolf Anker (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-06-27)
      Fjellrype og lirype har en vid sirkumpolar utbredelse, med populasjoner som ofte har store, sykliske svingninger. Disse rypesyklusenes periodelengde og amplitude varierer imidlertid svært mye i tid og rom. Mens norske rypepopulasjoner har hatt en 3–4-års syklus koplet til smågnagersyklusen, kan rype andre steder i verden ha 9–11-års sykluser koplet til andre arter i økosystemet. Rypedynamikken kan ...

    • Qué hacen las preposiciones en las perífrasis 

      Fábregas, Antonio (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-12)
      En este artículo nos ocupamos de la naturaleza del llamado nexo de las perífrasis, y específicamente de los casos que son aparentemente preposiciones (<i>ir a</i> + <i>infinitivo</i>, <i>dejar de</i> + <i>infinitivo</i>). Mostraremos a través de una serie de pruebas que no cabe considerarlos formas fosilizadas que aparecen por un motivo de idiosincrasia léxica; antes bien, es posible establecer una ...

    • Perífrasis e inductores negativos: un análisis en términos de dominios 

      Fábregas, Antonio; Gonzalez, Raquel Rodríguez (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      En este trabajo nos ocupamos de las estructuras perifrásticas que contienen negación en su interior, siguiendo el esquema <auxiliar + no + auxiliado>, y concretamente de las condiciones bajo las cuales una perífrasis admite la interposición de este adverbio. Argumentamos, mediante un examen detallado de las perífrasis de gerundio e infinitivo, que la interposición de la negación produce una lectura ...

    • Drug-Loaded Photosensitizer-Chitosan Nanoparticles for Combinatorial Chemo- and Photodynamic-Therapy of Cancer 

      Pandya, Abhilash D.; Øverbye, Anders; Sahariah, Priyanka; Gaware, Vivek S.; Høgset, Håkon; Masson, Már; Høgset, Anders; Mælandsmo, Gunhild Mari; Skotland, Tore; Sandvig, Kirsten; Iversen, Tore Geir (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-02-24)
      In this study we have developed biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) containing the cytostatic drugs mertansine (MRT) or cabazitaxel (CBZ). The NPs are based on chitosan (CS) conjugate polymers synthesized with different amounts of the photosensitizer tetraphenylchlorin (TPC). These TPC–CS NPs have high loading capacity and strong drug retention due to π–π stacking interactions between the ...

    • To Bind or Not to Bind: Mechanistic Insights into C–CO2 Bond Formation with Late Transition Metals 

      García-López, Diego; Pavlovic, Ljiljana; Hopmann, Kathrin Helen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-04-03)
      In transition metal-mediated carboxylation reactions, CO<sub>2</sub> inserts into a metal–nucleophile bond. At the carboxylation transition state (TS), CO<sub>2</sub> may interact with the metal (<i>inner</i>-sphere path) or may insert without being activated by the metal (<i>outer</i>-sphere path). Currently, there is no consensus as to which path prevails. In order to establish general predictions ...

    • Construal vs. redundancy: Russian aspect in context 

      Janda, Laura Alexis; Reynolds, Robert (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-10)
      The relationship between construal and redundancy has not been previously explored empirically. Russian aspect allows speakers to construe situations as either Perfective or Imperfective, but it is not clear to what extent aspect is determined by context and therefore redundant. We investigate the relationship between redundancy and open construal by surveying 501 native Russian speakers who rated ...
