Low expression levels of ATM may substitute for CHEK2/TP53 mutations predicting resistance towards anthracycline and mitomycin chemotherapy in breast cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Introduction Mutations affecting p53 or its upstream activator Chk2 are associated with resistance to DNA-damaging chemotherapy in breast cancer. ATM (Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated protein) is the key activator of p53 ... -
Low fat, low lactose diet used as prophylactic treatment of acute intestinal reactions during pelvic radiotherapy. A prospective randomised study
(Dissertations at the Faculty of Medicine, 0805-7680; 203, Doctoral thesis, 2002)Purpose. The main aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of a low fat, low lactose diet on acute and late gastrointestinal side effects of pelvic radiotherapy. We also wanted to evaluate if such a treatment ... -
Low free testosterone and prostate cancer risk: A collaborative analysis of 20 prospective studies
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background Experimental and clinical evidence implicates testosterone in the aetiology of prostate cancer. Variation across the normal range of circulating free testosterone concentrations may not lead to changes in ... -
Low free-riding at the cost of subsidizing the rich. Replicating Swiss energy retrofit subsidy findings in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Understanding free-riding is central to effective household energy retrofit subsidy policymaking. We replicate a Swiss study on free-riding prevalence in household energy retrofitting in Norway Studer and Rieder (2019). ... -
Low Frequency AC Transmission - Investigating the Dynamics of an Export Cable for Offshore Wind Power Applications
(Master thesis, 2016)In the following thesis, the properties of a 16 2/3 Hz, low frequency alternating current (LFAC) export cable was examined in both steady state and dynamic conditions, as part of a simplified offshore transmission system. ... -
Low Frequency Alternating Current (LFAC) Transmission Systems for Offshore Wind Farms - Case Studies on the Use of LFAC, Based on Horns Rev 3 Offshore Wind Farm
(Master thesis, 2017)This thesis investigates the use of low frequency alternating current (LFAC) for the longdistance transmission of the power extracted from offshore wind farms. It is based on the measurement of power flow in different nodes ... -
Low frequency cerebral arterial and venous flow oscillations in healthy neonates measured by NeoDoppler
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: A cerebroprotective effect of low frequency oscillations (LFO) in cerebral blood flow (CBF) has been suggested in adults, but its significance in neonates is not known. This observational study evaluates normal ... -
Low genetic diversity despite multiple introductions of the invasive plant species Impatiens glandulifera in Europe
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Background Invasive species can be a major threat to native biodiversity and the number of invasive plant species is increasing across the globe. Population genetic studies of invasive species can provide key insights ... -
Low grade albuminuria as a risk factor for subtypes of stroke - the HUNT Study in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background and purpose Albuminuria is a marker for endothelial dysfunction and knowledge on its association with stroke and stroke subtypes are limited. Methods Corresponding data from 7261 participants of the ... -
Low Grade Gliomas in Eloquent Locations – Implications for Surgical Strategy, Survival and Long Term Quality of Life
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Background: Surgical management of suspected LGG remains controversial. A key factor when deciding a surgical strategy is often the tumors’ perceived relationship to eloquent brain regions Objective: To study the association ... -
