Nephrologists’ experiences with patient participation when long-term dialysis is required
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background For individuals in need of dialysis, patient participation is important when determining care goals and in decision making regarding dialysis modality. Nephrologists hold a key role in delivering evidence-based ... -
Nephronectin induced activation of intracellular signaling pathways in breast cancer
(Master thesis, 2016)The aim of this project was to characterize the intracellular signaling pathways induced by extracellular matrix protein (ECM) Nephronectin (Npnt) in cell line 66cl4. Cell line 66cl4 is a cell line from a mouse mammary ... -
Neural networks for parameter estimation in microstructural MRI: application to a diffusion-relaxation model of white matter
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Specific features of white matter microstructure can be investigated by using biophysical models to interpret relaxation-diffusion MRI brain data. Although more intricate models have the potential to reveal more details ... -
Neural response analysis for brain-machine interfaces
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Neurological disorders such as Alzheimers and Parkinsons diseases are associated with malfunctioning neurons, and neuronal signaling and communication pathways. Restoring the neuronal function is considered one of the ... -
Neuron-astrocyte interactions, pyruvate carboxylation and the pentose phosphate pathway in the neonatal rat brain
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Glucose and acetate metabolism and the synthesis of amino acid neurotransmitters, anaplerosis, glutamate-glutamine cycling and the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) have been extensively investigated in the adult, but not ... -
Neuropsychological Dysfunction in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and the Relation between Objective and Subjective Findings
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Objective: This study aimed to explore the relationship between self-reported cognitive difficulties, objective neuropsychological test performances, and subjective health complaints in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and ... -
Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Reduced by Tocilizumab and Associated With Infarct Size
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024) -
New methods for localizing brain activity with Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2014:333, Doctoral thesis, 2014)Blood-oxygen-level-dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD fMRI) is the most frequently used non-invasive method for localizing brain activity in vivo with good spatial and fair temporal resolution. It is ... -
New relative intensity ambulatory accelerometer thresholds for elderly men and women: The Generation 100 study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Background Public health initiatives world-wide recommend increasing physical activity (PA) to improve health. However, the dose and the intensity of PA producing the most benefit are still debated. Accurate assessment ... -
A new removable airway stent
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Background Malignant airway obstruction is a feared complication and will most probably occur more frequently in the future because of increasing cancer incidence and increased life expectancy in cancer patients. Minimal ... -
New ultrasound flow modalities for evaluation of congenital heart defects
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2014:275, Doctoral thesis, 2014) -
NF-κB Transcriptional Activity Indispensably Mediates Hypoxia–Reoxygenation Stress-Induced microRNA-210 Expression
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Ischemia–reperfusion (I-R) injury is a cardinal pathophysiological hallmark of ischemic heart disease (IHD). Despite significant advances in the understanding of what causes I-R injury and hypoxia–reoxygenation (H-R) stress, ... -
NMR-based metabolomics of biofluids in cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Metabolomics is the branch of “omics” technologies that involves high‐throughput identification and quantification of small‐molecule metabolites in the metabolome. NMR‐based spectroscopy of biofluids represents a potential ... -
NMR-Based Prostate Cancer Metabolomics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Prostate cancer is the second most common malignancy, and the fifth leading cause of cancer-related death among men, worldwide. A major unsolved clinical challenge in prostate cancer is the ability to accurately distinguish ... -

(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The aim was to investigate the effect of training, sex, age and selected genes on physiological and performance variables and adaptations before, and during 6 months of training in well-trained cross-country skiers. ... -
No Effect of Calanus Oil on Maximal Oxygen Uptake in Healthy Participants: A Randomized Controlled Study.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)We aimed to investigate the long-term effect of daily Calanus oil supplementation on maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) in healthy 30- to 50-year-old participants. The study was motivated by preclinical studies reporting ... -
Non-communicable diseases at a regional hospital in Nepal: Findings of a high burden of alcohol-related disease
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Recent global burden of disease reports find that a major proportion of global deaths and disability worldwide can be attributed to alcohol use. Thus, it may be surprising that very few studies have reported on the burden ... -
Non-Invasive Prostate Cancer Characterization with Diffusion-Weighted MRI: Insight from In silico Studies of a Transgenic Mouse Model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) enables non-invasive, quantitative staging of prostate cancer via measurement of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of water within tissues. In cancer, more advanced ... -
