Allocentric representation in the human amygdala and ventral visual stream
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The hippocampus and the entorhinal cortex are considered the main brain structures for allocentric representation of the external environment. Here, we show that the amygdala and the ventral visual stream are involved in ... -
Ambulance-attended opioid overdoses: An examination into overdose locations and the role of a safe injection facility
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background: Although the United States and numerous other countries are amidst an opioid overdose crisis, access to safe injection facilities remains limited. Methods: We used prospective data from ambulance journals in ... -
An in-hospital clinical care pathway with integrated decision support for cancer pain management reduced pain intensity and needs for hospital stay
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Purpose A clinical care pathway for pain management in a palliative care unit was studied with outcomes related to patients, physicians, and health care service. Mandatory use of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) ... -
An inverse switch in DNA base excision and strand break repair contributes to melphalan resistance in multiple myeloma cells
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Alterations in checkpoint and DNA repair pathways may provide adaptive mechanisms contributing to acquired drug resistance. Here, we investigated the levels of proteins mediating DNA damage signaling and -repair in RPMI8226 ... -
Analyses of Increased Mortality in New and Known Diabetes in Patients with Coronary Disease Enrolled in the NORSTENT Randomized Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: NORSTENT trial randomized 9,013 patients to percutaneous coronary intervention with drug-eluting stents (DES) or bare-metal stents (BMS) with a 5-year follow-up. Among the patients, 5,512 had measured either ... -
Analysis of acoustic impedance matching in dual-band ultrasound transducers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Dual-frequency band probes are needed for ultrasound (US) reverberation suppression and are useful for image-guided US therapy. A challenge is to design transducer stacks that achieve high bandwidth and efficiency at both ... -

Analysis of Intra-Tumoral Macrophages and T Cells in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Indicates a Role for Immune Checkpoint and CD200-CD200R Interactions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, accounting for nearly one-fifth of all cancer-related deaths. Immunotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors has become one of the most promising approaches ... -
Angiogenesis and radiological tumor growth in patients with glioblastoma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background The preoperative growth of human glioblastomas (GBMs) has been shown to vary among patients. In animal studies, angiogenesis has been linked to hypoxia and faster growth of GBM, however, its relation to the ... -
Animal study assessing safety of an acoustic coupling fluid that holds the potential to avoid surgically induced artifacts in 3D ultrasound guided operations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Background Use of ultrasound in brain tumor surgery is common. The difference in attenuation between brain and isotonic saline may cause artifacts that degrade the ultrasound images, potentially affecting resection grades ... -
Annotation Web - An open-source web-based annotation tool for ultrasound images
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The use of deep learning and other machine learning techniques requires large amounts of annotated image data. There exist several tools to annotate images, however to our knowledge there are no tools made specifically for ... -
