Adverse effects of proton pump inhibitors – evidence and plausibility
Fossmark, Reidar; Martinsen, Tom Christian; Waldum, Helge (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have been increasingly used over the last decades and there are concerns about overuse and the numerous reported side-effects. It is uncertain whether associations between PPI use and potential ... -

Spasmolytic polypeptide-expression metaplasia (SPEM) has been proposed as a precursor of gastric ... -
Hepatic micrometastases outside macrometastases are present in all patients with ileal neuroendocrine primary tumour at the time of liver resection.
Fossmark, Reidar; Balto, Tine Marie; Martinsen, Tom Christian; Grønbech, Jon Erik; Munkvold, Bjørn; Mjønes, Patricia; Waldum, Helge (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background: Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) in the ileum grow slowly but metastasise to the liver at an early stage. After resection of the primary tumour and mesenteric lymph nodes, selected patients with liver metastases ... -
Hormones and Neuroendocrine Cells Role in Gastric Tumourigenesis
Sagatun, Liv (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2017:177, Doctoral thesis, 2017)The localization of the gastrin receptor on the enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells and the dose-response curve for the histamine releasing effect of gastrin have been shown in rats. Furthermore, in this species the trophic ... -
Mucosal 5-aminosalicylic acid concentration, drug formulation and mucosal microbiome in patients with quiescent ulcerative colitis

Not only stem cells, but also mature cells, particularly neuroendocrine cells, may develop into tumours: time for a paradigm shift
Waldum, Helge; Öberg, Kjell; Sørdal, Øystein Finset; Sandvik, Arne Kristian; Gustafsson, Björn; Mjønes, Patricia; Fossmark, Reidar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Stem cells are considered the origin of neoplasms in general, and malignant tumours in particular, and the stage at which the stem cells stop their differentiation determines the degree of malignancy. However, there is ... -
Randomized clinical trial of topical tranexamic acid after reduction mammoplasty
Ausen, Kjersti; Fossmark, Reidar; Spigset, Olav; Pleym, Hilde (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Background The antifibrinolytic drug tranexamic acid is currently being rediscovered for both trauma and major surgery. Intravenous administration reduces the need for blood transfusion and blood loss by about one-third, ... -
Role of Autoimmune Gastritis in Gastric Cancer
Waldum, Helge; Fossmark, Reidar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)It has been known for 70 years that gastric cancer occurs mainly in a stomach with gastritis. Gastritis was previously so prevalent that it was regarded as an aging phenomenon. Since the description of Helicobacter pylori ... -
