The prognostic effect of KRAS mutations in non-small cell lung carcinoma revisited: A norwegian multicentre study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: due to emerging therapeutics targeting KRAS G12C and previous reports with conflicting results regarding the prognostic impact of KRAS and KRAS G12C in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we aimed to investigate ... -
The prognostic value of methylation signatures and NF2 mutations in atypical meningiomas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Due to the solely subjective histopathological assessment, the WHO 2016 classification of human meningiomas is subject to interobserver variation. Consequently, the need for more reliable and objective markers ... -
Quality of life in vulnerable older patients with metastatic colorectal cancer receiving palliative chemotherapy—the randomized nordic9-study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Bowel cancer is one of the leading cancer-types in both sexes worldwide. Despite that most new cases and deaths occur in people aged 70 years or older, few clinical trials have investigated the best way to administer ... -
Response Evaluation after Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Resectable Gastric Cancer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: The method of response evaluation following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in resectable gastric cancer has been widely debated. An essential prerequisite is the ability to stratify patients into subsets of ... -
Selective Killing of Activated T Cells by 5-Aminolevulinic Acid Mediated Photodynamic Effect: Potential Improvement of Extracorporeal Photopheresis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP), a modality that exposes isolated leukocytes to the photosensitizer 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) and ultraviolet-A (UV-A) light, is used to treat conditions such as cutaneous T-cell lymphoma ... -
Spontaneous Non-Sustained Ventricular Tachycardia and Premature Ventricular Contractions and Their Prognostic Relevance in Patients with Cancer in Routine Care
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Aims: It is largely unknown whether cancer patients seen in routine care show ventricular arrhythmias in 24 h electrocardiograms (ECGs), and whether when they are detected they carry prognostic relevance. Methods and ... -
Survival and disease recurrence in patients with duodenal neuroendocrine tumours—a single centre cohort
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Duodenal neuroendocrine tumours (D-NETs) are rare but increasingly diagnosed. This study aimed to assess the overall survival and recurrence rate among patients treated for D-NETs. Methods: Patients with D-NETs ... -
Survival Trends in Patients with Small Intestinal Neuroendocrine Tumours—A Cohort Study in Central Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Improved surgical resection and oncological treatment, or an earlier diagnosis may increase survival in small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours (SI-NETs), but only few studies have examined survival trends. We aimed to ... -
Towards understanding of gastric cancer based upon physiological role of gastrin and ECL cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The stomach is an ideal organ to study because the gastric juice kills most of the swallowed microbes and, thus, creates rather similar milieu among individuals. Combined with a rather easy access to gastric juice, gastric ... -
Tri-Compartmental Restriction Spectrum Imaging Breast Model Distinguishes Malignant Lesions from Benign Lesions and Healthy Tissue on Diffusion-Weighted Imaging
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) offers a potential adjunct to dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI to discriminate benign from malignant breast lesions by yielding quantitative information about tissue microstructure. Multi-component ... -
Tumor classification should be based on biology and not consensus: Re-defining tumors based on biology may accelerate progress, an experience of gastric cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Abstract: Malignant tumors are a consequence of genetic changes mainly occurring during cell division, sometimes with a congenital component. Therefore, accelerated cell divisions will necessarily predispose individuals, ... -
An Update on Prevalence, Assessment, and Risk Factors for Sleep Disturbances in Patients with Advanced Cancer—Implications for Health Care Providers and Clinical Research
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Simple Summary This review focuses on sleep in patients with advanced cancer. Cancer patients experience multiple symptoms and they receive concomitant medications. These are all factors that may affect sleep. In this ...
