Fungi and Actinobacteria: Alternative Probiotics for Sustainable Aquaculture
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-11-25)Aquatic animals are continually being exposed to stressors under farming conditions, increasing risks to gut health that result in dysbiosis. Since restrictions are imposed on the frequent use of antibiotics in aquaculture, there is emerging demand for economically viable, environmentally safe, and sustainable alternatives for the intensive production of aquaculture species. The application ... -
Microbial Adaptation - Responses to External Cues
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2024-02-09)Bacteria can adapt to various environments because they efficiently sense and respond to external cues. This is exemplified by antibiotic resistance, a leading cause for death on a global scale. Antibiotics exert a selection pressure on bacteria, where improper use can inadvertently select for antibiotic resistance. Dissemination of antibiotic resistance throughout bacterial populations can occur ... -
Phthalate contamination in marine mammals off the Norwegian coast
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-27)Phthalates are used in plastics, found throughout the marine environment and have the potential to cause adverse health effects. In the present study, we quantified blubber concentrations of 11 phthalates in 16 samples from stranded and/or free-living marine mammals from the Norwegian coast: the killer whale (Orcinus orca), sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus), long-finned pilot whale (Globicephala ... -
Different Outcomes According to Needling Point Location Used in Sham Acupuncture for Cancer-Related Pain: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-17)Numerous acupuncture studies have been conducted on cancer-related pain; however, its efficacy compared to sham acupuncture remains controversial. We confirmed whether the outcome of acupuncture differs according to the needling points of sham acupuncture for cancer-related pain. We searched 10 databases on 23 May 2023 to screen acupuncture trials using sham acupuncture or waiting list as controls ... -
Environmental parasitology: stressor effects on aquatic parasites
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-04-14)Anthropogenic stressors are causing fundamental changes in aquatic habitats and to the organisms inhabiting these ecosystems. Yet, we are still far from understanding the diverse responses of parasites and their hosts to these environmental stressors and predicting how these stressors will affect host–parasite communities. Here, we provide an overview of the impacts of major stressors affecting ... -
Well-posedness of heat and wave equations generated by Rubin’s q-difference operator in Sobolev spaces
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023)In this paper, we investigate difference-differential operators of parabolic and hyperbolic types. Namely, we considern on-homogenous heat and wave equations for Rubin’s difference operator. Wellposedness results are obtained in appropriate Sobolev type spaces. In particular, we prove that the heat and wave equations generated by Rubin’s difference operator have unique solutions. We even show that ... -

The submarine fault scarp of the 2011 Tohoku-oki Earthquake in the Japan Trench
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-26)Rupture of the plate boundary fault during the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake with moment magnitude 9.0 is thought to have propagated to the trench. Surface exposure of the fault has not yet been confirmed because of great depths that are challenging to access and study. Using a manned submersible in the Japan Trench, we explored and visually assessed the seafloor near the epicenter. On the eastern slope ... -
From machine learning to classroom learning: mobile vowels and the Russian preposition v ‘in(to)’
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023)The present study reports on a machine learning experiment concerning mobile vowels in the Russian preposition v ‘in(to)’. It is shown that a neural network is able to predict mobile vowels in 97.4% of the cases in our dataset, and a decision tree is used to extract a set of three rules that a language learner can use to achieve nearly the same level of accuracy. We argue that these rules are ... -
Diagnose som verktøy for mestring
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2023)I denne artikkelen utforsker vi spørsmålet: Hvordan opplever kvinner med sen ADHD-diagnose at diagnose kan bidra til å forstå seg selv og tilrettelegge for valg som fremmer god helse? I studien er det benyttet en flermetodisk tilnærming med digitalt spørreskjema, semistrukturerte intervjuer og fokusgruppeintervju. Tema har blant annet vært betydningen av diagnose. Sentrale funn er at diagnose oppleves ... -
Historien til kreftsykepleierstudiet i Tromsø
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2023)I denne artikkelen gir vi et innblikk i historien til kreftsykepleierstudiet i Tromsø – fra oppstarten på slutten av 1980-tallet ved Regionssykehuset i Tromsø (RST) og frem til i dag. Sykehuset og utdanningen har samarbeidet tett gjennom hele perioden. Samfunnsforhold og samfunnets behov for kreftsykepleiere er med som et bakteppe gjennom artikkelen. -
Selv-reparasjon for å komme problem med forståelighet i forkjøpet: en samtaleanalytisk studie om løpsk tale
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-23)Løpsk tale er en taleflytvanske hvor korte eller lengre talesekvenser kan oppfattes som for raske og/eller utydelige. Det er lite kunnskap om hvordan løpsk tale påvirker kommunikasjonen. Basert på samtaleanalyse av 14 ½ timer lyd- og videomateriale av samtaler med personer med løpsk tale og deres samtalepartnere, identifiserte og analyserte vi tilfeller av selv-initiert selv-reparasjon. Analysen ... -

Conceptualizing negotiation in the clinical encounter – a scoping review using principles from critical interpretive synthesis
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-04)Objective: Negotiation as an analytical concept in research about clinical encounters is vague. We aim to provide a conceptual synthesis of key characteristics of the process of negotiation in clinical encounters based on a scoping review.<p> <p>Methods: We conducted a scoping review of relevant literature in Embase, Psych Info, Global Health and SCOPUS. We included 25 studies from 1737 citations ... -
A Deep Diagnostic Framework Using Explainable Artificial Intelligence and Clustering
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-11-09)An important part of diagnostics is to gain insight into properties that characterize a disease. Machine learning has been used for this purpose, for instance, to identify biomarkers in genomics. However, when patient data are presented as images, identifying properties that characterize a disease becomes far more challenging. A common strategy involves extracting features from the images and ... -

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a broad applicability marker for LC–MS/MS-based biodistribution analysis of nanomedicines
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-13)Polyethylene glycol (PEG) conjugation (PEGylation) is a well-established strategy to improve the pharmacokinetic and biocompatibility properties of a wide variety of nanomedicines and therapeutic peptides and proteins. This broad use makes PEG an attractive ‘allround’ candidate marker for the biodistribution of such PEGylated compounds. This paper presents the development of a novel strategy for ... -
Educational patterns of health behaviors and body mass index: A longitudinal multiple correspondence analysis of a middle-aged general population, 2007-2016
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-01)Social differences in body mass index and health behaviors are a major public health challenge. The uneven distribution of unhealthy body mass index and of unhealthy behaviors such as smoking, physical inactivity, and harmful alcohol consumption has been shown to mediate social inequalities in chronic diseases. While differential exposures to these health variables have been investigated, the ... -
Forskjeller i mortalitet hos traumepasienter
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-08-16)Mortaliteten blant norske traumepasienter i perioden 2015–18 var på linje med de beste resultatene fra andre land, men fortsatt fant vi regionale forskjeller og forskjeller mellom sykehusnivåer. Selv om resultatene er bra, kan vi bli bedre. Traumer er den viktigste dødsårsaken for personer under 44 år på verdensbasis, også i vår del av verden. Mortalitet er et internasjonalt anerkjent effektmål ...
