Árran - levende historier i landskapet
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2006)Langs de gamle flytteveiene, fra innlandet over kjølen og ut til kysten, finner vi de samiske árran – ildstedene. De ligger der som perler på en snor, og knytter bånd mellom øst og vest. Árran ligger på boplassene i furuskogen, i tregrensen, på høyfjellet og ved havet, steder valgt ut for hver årstid. Studier av ulike árran er kilder til forståelse av tidligere generasjoners liv og virke. Ennå ... -
Greater topoclimatic control of above‐ versus below‐ground communities
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-08-31)Assessing the degree to which climate explains the spatial distributions of different taxonomic and functional groups is essential for anticipating the effects of climate change on ecosystems. Most effort so far has focused on above-ground organisms, which offer only a partial view on the response of biodiversity to environmental gradients. Here including both above- and below-ground organisms, we ... -

Bioprospecting of marine microorganisms for the discovery of antibacterial compounds - Isolation, structure elucidation and bioactivity assessment of marine microbial natural products
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2022-04-27)<p>Infectious diseases have been a problem for humans since the beginning of human existence. The “golden age” of antibiotics started at the end of the 1920s, with the discovery of penicillin by Sir Alexander Fleming. This was followed by the discovery of several life-saving antibiotics. The number of new marketed antibiotics has declined, and most pharmaceutical companies are no longer working in ... -

Intracellular Transposition and Capture of Mobile Genetic Elements following Intercellular Conjugation of Multidrug Resistance Conjugative Plasmids from Clinical Enterobacteriaceae Isolates
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-19)Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) are often associated with antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs). They are responsible for intracellular transposition between different replicons and intercellular conjugation and are therefore important agents of ARG dissemination. Detection and characterization of functional MGEs, especially in clinical isolates, would increase our understanding of the underlying ... -

Tracing Lower Cretaceous organic-rich units across the SW Barents Shelf
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-28)On the Barents Shelf, the northernmost and least explored hydrocarbon province of the Norwegian Continental Shelf, Upper Jurassic organic-rich shales have traditionally been given most attention as these represent the most prolific source rock unit of the region. However, in the western frontier areas of the Barents Shelf, the Upper Jurassic is too deeply buried. By combining high-resolution 2D ... -
Delivery Room ST Segment Analysis to Predict Short Term Outcomes in Near-Term and Term Newborns
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-03)Background: ST-segment changes to the fetal electrocardiogram (ECG) may indicate fetal acidosis. No large-scale characterization of ECG morphology immediately after birth has been performed, but ECG is used for heart rate (HR) assessment. We aimed to investigate ECG morphology immediately after birth in asphyxiated infants, using one-lead dry-electrode ECG developed for HR measurement. Methods: ... -
Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH). Prevalence among 16-year-old adolescents: A case-control study of children with a low Apgar score at birth and a study on tooth formation and antibiotics in mice
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2022-04-22)<p><i>Background/Aims:</i> Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) is one of the most common dental developmental disorders with a global prevalence of 13%.

Investigating the drivers of the Nordic Seas food-web dynamics using Chance and Necessity modelling
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2022-04-22)Marine ecosystems are under pressures of human activities that have altered their dynamics and structure during the last five decades, but there can also vary due to internal dynamics or chance. Managers focus on human activities and often ignore the contribution of internal dynamics and chance to ecosystem dynamics in the decision-making process. In this thesis, I use food-web modelling based on ... -

Supporting Students’ Understanding of Caring Science as a Meaningful Basis for Practice
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10)Caring science has been described as abstract, difficult to apply, or unscientific common sense. An alternative view is that caring science knowledge does not pose a greater challenge because it is abstract, but because it challenges caregivers’ existence. No matter how nursing faculty perceive these challenges, it is crucial to create a context where students are supported in the integration of ... -
Plasma concentrations of advanced glycation end-products and colorectal cancer risk in the EPIC study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-03-29)Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are a heterogeneous group of compounds formed by the non-enzymatic reaction between amino acids and reducing sugars, or dicarbonyls as intermediate compounds. Experimental studies suggest that AGEs may promote colorectal cancer, but prospective epidemiologic studies are inconclusive. We conducted a case–control study nested within a large European cohort. Plasma ... -
Why are population growth rate estimates of past and present hunter–gatherers so different?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-11-30)Hunter–gatherer population growth rate estimates extracted from archaeological proxies and ethnographic data show remarkable differences, as archaeological estimates are orders of magnitude smaller than ethnographic and historical estimates. This could imply that prehistoric hunter–gatherers were demographically different from recent hunter–gatherers. However, we show that the resolution of ... -
The effect of bilingualism on brain development from early childhood to young adulthood.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-20)Bilingualism afects the structure of the brain in adults, as evidenced by experience-dependent grey and white matter changes in brain structures implicated in language learning, processing, and control. However, limited evidence exists on how bilingualism may infuence brain development. We examined the developmental patterns of both grey and white matter structures in a cross-sectional study of ... -
