MRI Imaging of the Hemodynamic Vasculature of Neuroblastoma Predicts Response to Antiangiogenic Treatment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Childhood neuroblastoma is a hypervascular tumor of neural origin, for which antiangiogenic drugs are currently being evaluated; however, predictive biomarkers of treatment response, crucial for successful delivery of ... -
Accuracy of breast cancer lesion classification using intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging is improved by the inclusion of global or local prior knowledge with bayesian methods
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background Diffusion‐weighted MRI (DWI) has potential to noninvasively characterize breast cancer lesions; models such as intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) provide pseudodiffusion parameters that reflect tissue perfusion, ... -
Post-radiotherapy apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) in children and young adults with high-grade gliomas and diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Objectives: Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) offers potential to monitor response and predict survival in high-grade gliomas (HGG) and diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPG). We hypothesized that ... -
Persistence of disseminated tumor cells after neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced breast cancer predicts poor survival
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Introduction Presence of disseminated tumor cells (DTCs) in bone marrow (BM) and circulating tumor cells (CTC) in peripheral blood (PB) predicts reduced survival in early breast cancer. The aim of this study was to determine ... -
IgG and IgG4 antibodies in subjects with irritable bowel syndrome: a case control study in the general population
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Background Patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) often relate their symptoms to the intake of food and modify their diet. IgE-mediated food allergy is uncommon in IBS, but the role of IgG-mediated food hypersensitivity ... -
Revmatoid artritt i Norge - demografi, sykdomskarakteristika og behandling : en sammenligning med andre europeiske land og USA
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Bakgrunn: Revmatoid artritt (RA) er en kronisk inflammatorisk leddsykdom som gir økt sykelighet og dødelighet. Nye biologiske legemidler har de siste 10 årene bedret prognosen betydelig. I 2005 ble QUEST-RA (Quantitative ... -
Improvement in Psoriasis Area and Severity Index Score predicts improvement in skin pain over time in patients with psoriasis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Pain and discomfort are common and often severe skin symptoms in patients with psoriasis. However, no studies have investigated skin pain and discomfort over time, or factors that explain changes in these symptoms. The ... -
Gender and being born overseas influences the amount of stroke therapy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)OBJECTIVE: To identify patient factors that influence the amount, frequency and intensity of physical and occupational therapy received by patients each weekday within 14 days of stroke. DESIGN: Exploration of data ... -
Managing incidental findings in population based biobank research :
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)With the introduction of whole genome sequencing in medical research, the debate on how to handle incidental findings is becoming omnipresent. Much of the literature on the topic so far, seems to defend the researcher’s ... -
Living alone, receiving help, helplessness, and inactivity are strongly related to risk of undernutrition among older home-dwelling people
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Background: Being at risk of undernutrition is a global problem among older people. Undernutrition can be considered inadequate nutritional status, characterized by insufficient food intake and weight loss. There is a lack ... -
Headache prevalence and characteristics among school children as assessed by prospective paper diary recordings
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)In the present school-based study, a convenience sample of 477 students in grades 6–9 and second year in high school from a city and a smaller town recorded daily occurrence and intensity of headaches in a standard paper ... -
Foresattes forventninger til småbarn i Norge og Uganda : motorisk utvikling og kulturelle påvirkninger
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Hensikt: Studien ser på foresattes forventninger til motorisk utvikling hos småbarn og sammenligner forventningene til foresatte i Norge og Uganda. Den handler også om foresatte øver på motoriske ferdigheter, hvilke ... -
Lactation and cardiovascular risk factors in a population-based study: the HUNT-study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Background Lactation has beneficial short term effects on maternal metabolic health, but the long term effects are less well known. Methods We studied the association between lifetime duration of lactation and cardiovascular ... -
Prognostic value of metabolic response in breast cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Background Today's clinical diagnostic tools are insufficient for giving accurate prognosis to breast cancer patients. The aim of our study was to examine the tumor metabolic changes in patients with locally advanced breast ... -
Microencapsulation of small intestinal neuroendocrine neoplasm cells for tumor model studies
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Basic cancer research is dependent on reliable in vitro and in vivo tumor models. The serotonin (5‐HT) producing small intestinal neuroendocrine tumor cell line KRJ‐1 has been used in in vitro proliferation and secretion ... -
How are minor mental health problems perceived by Traditional Chinese Medicine?

Combining H/D exchange mass spectroscopy and computational docking reveals extended DNA-binding surface on uracil-DNA glycosylase
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)X-ray crystallography provides excellent structural data on protein–DNA interfaces, but crystallographic complexes typically contain only small fragments of large DNA molecules. We present a new approach that can use longer ... -
The GOLD domain-containing protein TMED7 inhibits TLR4 signalling from the endosome upon LPS stimulation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Toll-like receptor 4 is an innate immune receptor responsible for the recognition of the Gram-negative cell wall component lipopolysaccharide. Here we show that transmembrane emp24 domain-containing protein 7 (TMED7) ... -
