Coding variants in RPL3L and MYZAP increase risk of atrial fibrillation
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-06-12)Most sequence variants identified hitherto in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of atrial fibrillation are common, non-coding variants associated with risk through unknown mechanisms. We performed a meta-analysis of GWAS of atrial fibrillation among 29,502 cases and 767,760 controls from Iceland and the UK Biobank with follow-up in samples from Norway and the US, focusing on low-frequency coding ... -

Studies of peripheral nerve blocks for hand and shoulder surgery
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2019-04-04)Performing regional anesthesia with a minimum effective volume (MEV) of local anesthetic may reduce the risk of systemic local anesthesia toxicity. The lateral sagittal infraclavicular block (LSIB) is a well-established anesthesia method for surgery distal to the shoulder. For LSIB using ropivacaine 7.5 mg/ml the MEV was previously not known and we estimated MEV95 to be 31 ml (95% CI, 18 – 45 ... -
The Moral Vertical in Russian Cinema: Female Pilots, Flight Attendants, Cosmonauts and Aliens

Atomized feedback, an approach to automatic formative assessment
(Peer reviewed; Chapter, 2017-11)In this article, we describe an approach to give automatic formative evaluation by atomizing the feedback. The mechanics in this approach is a large number of multiple-choice tests. The multiplechoice tests are used as voluntary assignments and gives controlled progression by releasing the tests in an order. Instruction is in the spirit of flipped classroom with short video lectures accompanied by ... -
Exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction in athletes: Contributory factors and treatment implications
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-05-14)Otherwise healthy adolescent athletes presenting with respiratory symptoms consistent with exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO) are frequently encountered in clinical practice. The symptoms are often incorrectly considered to result from exercise-induced asthma, and may be wrongly treated as such. Given the potential implications for health and performance if EILO is left untreated, a more ... -
Growing up with parental substance use disorder: The struggle with complex emotions, regulation of contact, and lack of professional support
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-07-20)The aim of the study was to explore young people's perceptions and reflections about growing up with parents who have substance use disorder (SUD). In qualitative inter-views with 12 young people (aged 13–26) and in an interpretative phenomenological analysis, we investigated their experiences of everyday life, of the relationships with the parents with SUD, and of conversations about this, both ... -
Supervision in pediatric physiotherapy: an ambiguous distinction between treatment and supervision. A qualitative explorative study using observations and interviews
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2019-05-23)Supervision of non-professionals has become an integrated part of current practice in pediatric physiotherapy in primary health care. Limited knowledge exists regarding the content, organization and achievements of such practice. In this doctoral project, we explored supervision in the field of physiotherapy services for preschool children with CP who have personal aides responsible for the daily ... -
An Assessment of Factors Influencing Use of Respiratory Protective Equipment in the Norwegian Smelter Industry and the Effect of a Knowledge-based Intervention
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2019-05-21)Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma and other respiratory illness have been shown to be more prevalent in Norwegian smelter workers compared to the general population. There is evidence suggesting that the use of respiratory protective equipment (RPE) can be sub-optimal in occupations with respiratory exposure. This thesis investigated psychological factors thought to influence ... -
Identifying and measuring patient harms. A study of measuring adverse events in hospitalised patients by the Global Trigger Tool record review method
(Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2019-05-24)Patient harms, or adverse events which is the term used in this PhD thesis, is a global health problem. The Global Trigger Tool (GTT) is a widely used method to identify and measure adverse events (AEs). The method involves reviewers searching for triggers (situations) in randomly selected medical records and subsequently identifying AEs. However, the method is criticized due to the time used by ... -
What happens when a climber falls? Young climbers mathematise a climbing situation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-01)Students in Norway and other countries experience vectors as a difficult topic. Four young skilled climbers, who all did well in mathematics at school, participated in the Vector Study (VS). They participated for free and each lesson lasted until the students decided it was over. The idea was to investigate how climbing may function as a basis for students’ development of a vector concept. The ... -

Emergent Scale Invariance and Climate Sensitivity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-28)Earth’s global surface temperature shows variability on an extended range of temporal scales and satisfies an emergent scaling symmetry. Recent studies indicate that scale invariance is not only a feature of the observed temperature fluctuations, but an inherent property of the temperature response to radiative forcing, and a principle that links the fast and slow climate responses. It provides a ... -
Politiets adgang til å benytte dataavlesning i etterforskingsøyemed
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-02-25)Temaet for avhandlingen er dataavlesning. Dataavlesning er en metode og et tvangsmiddel som gir politiet adgang til opplysninger i et datasystem uten at personen som bruker datasystemet vet om det. Det er altså et svært inngripende tvangsmiddel, og politiets adgang til å benytte det er og må være snever. I denne avhandlingen er målet å klarlegge hvilken adgang politiet har til å benytte dataavlesning ... -
The design and implementation of driving time regulation
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-21)Our object of study is welfare optimal driving time regulations in professional road transportation. Due to fatigue, traffic accident risks are supposed to increase as driving times rise. Conversely, the quantity and quality of road infrastructure affect productivity and safety in transportation positively. As the typical driver does not bear all the social costs when accidents happen, in the absence ...
