(Master thesis, 2016)The emerging field of nanomedicine allows development of targeted drug delivery systems that improves the efficiency and bioavailability of important therapeutics in the clinic. Translation of engineered nanoparticles for ... -
Nasal naloxone - A pilot study of the pharmacokinetics of a concentrated formulation
(Master thesis, 2017)Introduction: Naloxone is the antidote against heroin and other opioids. As a measure to combat overdose deaths, nasal naloxone is wanted for bystander administration by lay people. The objective of this study was to ... -
Navigation Technology in Endovascular Aortic Repair
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2013:62, Doctoral thesis, 2013)A number of diseases can affect the aorta, and endovascular (minimally invasive) techniques can be used to treat many of these conditions. During endovascular aortic repair, different instruments, such as catheters (plastic ... -
A needs assessment of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) in non-traumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Introduction: Out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) carries an 86% mortality rate in Norway. Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is a potential adjunct in management of non-traumatic cardiac ... -
NeoDoppler: New ultrasound technology for continous cerebral circulation monitoring in neonates.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)BACKGROUND: There is a strong need for continuous cerebral circulation monitoring in neonatal care, since suboptimal cerebral blood flow may lead to brain injuries in preterm infants and other critically ill neonates. ... -
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 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 ... -
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

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 ... -
