Stroke in a resource-constrained hospital in Madagascar
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background Stroke is reported as the most frequent cause of in-hospital death in Madagascar. However, no descriptive data on hospitalized stroke patients in the country have been published. In the present study, we sought ... -
Stroke risk after transient ischemic attack in a Norwegian prospective cohort
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a risk factor of stroke. Modern treatment regimens and changing risk factors in the population justify new estimates of stroke risk after TIA, and evaluation of the recommended ... -
Stromal collagen content in breast tumors correlates with in vivo diffusion-weighted imaging: A comparison of multi b-value DWI with histologic specimen from benign and malignant breast lesions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background:Increased deposition and reorientation of stromal collagenfibers are associated with breast cancer progres-sion and invasiveness. Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) may be sensitive to the collagenfiber organization ... -
Stronger Is Better: The Impact of Upper Body Strength in Double Poling Performance
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The purpose of the present study was to compare time results from a roller-skiing double poling (DP) time trial with different physiological variables, muscular strength variables, and DP characteristics in both male and ... -
Structural and functional alterations associated with the LRRK2 G2019S mutation revealed in structured human neural networks
(Journal article, 2020)Mutations in the LRRK2 gene have been widely linked to Parkinson’s disease. The G2019S variant has been shown to contribute uniquely to both familial and sporadic forms of the disease. LRRK2-related mutations have been ... -
Structural and functional changes in the hippocampal region of a transgenic rat model of Alzheimer's disease
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2016:122, Doctoral thesis, 2016)Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that currently has no treatment to halt or cure the disease. Among the first symptoms are memory loss and learning difficulties, and as the disease ... -
Structural and functional dynamics of healthy and perturbed neuronal networks in vitro
(Master thesis, 2019)Rapid advancement in the field of morphogenic neuroengineering has led to interesting research perspectives in the area of in vitro neural network modeling using human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) derived neural ... -
Structural and Pragmatic Language Impairments in Children Evaluated for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Pragmatic language impairments are common in neurodevelopmental disorders, especially in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The relationship between structural language skills and pragmatic competence in children with autistic ... -
Structural basis for substrate and product recognition in human phosphoglucomutase-1 (PGM1) isoform 2, a member of the α-D-phosphohexomutase superfamily
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Human phosphoglucomutase 1 (PGM1) is an evolutionary conserved enzyme that belongs to the ubiquitous and ancient α-D-phosphohexomutases, a large enzyme superfamily with members in all three domains of life. PGM1 catalyzes ... -
Structural connectivity-based segmentation of the human entorhinal cortex
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The medial (MEC) and lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC), widely studied in rodents, are well defined and characterized. In humans, however, the exact locations of their homologues remain uncertain. Previous functional magnetic ... -
Structural Effects on the Computational Capacity of Neural Networks
(Master thesis, 2020)Måten nevroner er forbundet til hverandre har stor påvirkning på et nevralt nettverks evne til å utføre beregninger. Akkurat slike beregninger er sentrale for funksjonen til sentralnervesystemet, og er en global egenskap ... -
Structural validity and internal consistency of the Strengths and Stressors in Parenting (SSF) Questionnaire in parents of children with developmental disabilities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The current study investigated the structural validity and internal consistency of the Strengths and Stressors (SSF) questionnaire. The SSF is used in Swedish habilitation services to measure the positive and negative ... -
Structure-function analysis of human enzymes initiating nucleobase repair in DNA and RNA
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2008:79, Doctoral thesis, 2008)In humans, there are four known glycosylases that initiate repair of uracils in DNA. These are UNG, TDG, SMUG1, and MBD4. It was proposed that the replication independent SMUG1 was the main enzyme initiating removal of ... -
Structure-function dynamics of engineered, modular neuronal networks with controllable afferent-efferent connectivity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Objective: Microfluidic devices interfaced with microelectrode arrays have in recent years emerged as powerful platforms for studying and manipulating in vitro neuronal networks at the micro- and mesoscale. By segregating ... -

Structured clinical examinations in labor: rekindling the craft of obstetrics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Objectives: Exact knowledge of fetal station and position is of paramount importance for reliable surveillance of labor progress and a prerequisite for safe operative vaginal procedures. Detailed clinical assessments are ... -
Structured education can improve primary-care management of headache: the first empirical evidence, from a controlled interventional study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Background Headache disorders are under-recognized and under-diagnosed. A principal factor in their suboptimal management is lack of headache-related training among health-care providers, especially in primary care. In ... -
