Can a Dinosaur Think? Implementation of Artificial Intelligence in Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) of kidney stones is losing ground to more expensive and invasive endoscopic treatments. Objective: This proof-of-concept project was initiated to develop artificial ... -
Can a Peritoneal Conduit Become an Artery?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objective Current vascular grafts all have limitations. This study examined peritoneum as a potential graft material and the in vivo transfer of peritoneum into a functional artery like conduit after end to end anastomosis ... -
Can exercise training teach us how to treat Alzheimer's disease?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia and there is currently no cure. Novel approaches to treat AD and curb the rapidly increasing worldwide prevalence and costs of dementia are needed. Physical ... -
Can functional walk tests add value to the prediction of cardiorespiratory fitness after stroke? A prospective cohort study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Cardiorespiratory fitness is often impaired following stroke, and peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak) is an important prognostic value of all-cause mortality. The primary objective was to investigate whether ... -
Can Gaming Get You Fit?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Rationale: Exergaming may be a viable alternative to more traditional exercise. As high-intensity exercise can provide substantial health benefits, the purpose of this study was to investigate the long-term effectiveness ... -
Can high school students teach their peers high quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background If adolescents can teach each other cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) during school hours, this may be a cost-effective approach to CPR training. The aim of this study was to evaluate CPR quality among ... -
Can pediatric radiography be practiced appropriately in a hospital without a dedicated diagnostic imaging unit? A case study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Due to Norway’s population density, demographic scatter and topography, performing radiological examinations in children in the same unit as in adults is quite common despite international guidelines recommending use of ... -
Can probiotics help to maintain weight loss in individuals with obesity - a RCT

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Exercise is considered a cornerstone in the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes, but few individuals with type 2 diabetes exercise according to guidelines. We investigated the effect of two time efficient high ... -
Can variability in the effect of opioids on refractory breathlessness be explained by genetic factors?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Objectives: Opioids modulate the perception of breathlessness with a considerable variation in response, with poor correlation between the required opioid dose and symptom severity. The objective of this hypothesis-generating, ... -
Can video communication in the emergency medical communication centre improve dispatch precision? A before-after study in Norwegian helicopter emergency medical services
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Abstract Objectives Dispatching helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS) to the patients with the greatest medical or logistical benefit remains challenging. The introduction of video calls (VC) in the emergency medical ... -
Cancer cachexia associates with a systemic autophagy-inducing activity mimicked by cancer cell-derived IL-6 trans-signaling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The majority of cancer patients with advanced disease experience weight loss, including loss of lean body mass. Severe weight loss is characteristic for cancer cachexia, a condition that significantly impairs functional ... -
