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 ... -
Antibiotic Therapy in Integrated Oncology and Palliative Cancer Care: An Observational Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Simple Summary Approximately one-quarter of the patients with advanced cancer acutely admitted to the Palliative Care Unit at St. Olav’s University Hospital received intravenous antibiotics. We observed that physiological ... -
Decision Tree Analyses for Prediction of QoL over a One-Year Period in Breast Cancer Patients: An Added Value of Patient-Reported Outcomes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Despite the current shift in medicine towards patient-centered care, clinicians rarely utilize patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in everyday practice. We examined the predictors of quality- of-life (QoL) trajectories in ... -
Effectiveness of Opioid Switching in Advanced Cancer Pain: A Prospective Observational Cohort Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Opioid switching is a common practice of substituting one opioid for another to improve analgesia or adverse effects; however, it has limited evidence. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of opioid switching in ... -
Glioblastoma Surgery Imaging-Reporting and Data System: Validation and Performance of the Automated Segmentation Task
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)For patients with presumed glioblastoma, essential tumor characteristics are determined from preoperative MR images to optimize the treatment strategy. This procedure is time-consuming and subjective, if performed by crude ... -
Glioblastoma Surgery Imaging—Reporting and Data System: Standardized Reporting of Tumor Volume, Location, and Resectability Based on Automated Segmentations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Treatment decisions for patients with presumed glioblastoma are based on tumor characteristics available from a preoperative MR scan. Tumor characteristics, including volume, location, and resectability, are often estimated ... -
Histomolecular Validation of [<sup>18</sup>F]-FACBC in Gliomas Using Image-Localized Biopsies
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Background: Gliomas have a heterogeneous nature, and identifying the most aggressive parts of the tumor and defining tumor borders are important for histomolecular diagnosis, surgical resection, and radiation therapy ... -
Interventional techniques to management of cancer-related pain: Clinical and critical aspects
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Interventional techniques to manage cancer-related pain may be efficient treatment modalities in patients unresponsive or unable to tolerate systemic opioids. However, indication and selection of the right technique demand ... -
Mononuclear but Not Polymorphonuclear Phagocyte Depletion Increases Circulation Times and Improves Mammary Tumor-Homing Efficiency of Donor Bone Marrow-Derived Monocytes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Tumor associated macrophages are an essential part of the tumor microenvironment. Consequently, bone marrow-derived monocytes (BMDMs) are continuously recruited to tumors and are therefore seen as ideal delivery vehicles ... -
Predicting Regions of Local Recurrence in Glioblastomas Using Voxel-Based Radiomic Features of Multiparametric Postoperative MRI
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The globally accepted surgical strategy in glioblastomas is removing the enhancing tumor. However, the peritumoral region harbors infiltration areas responsible for future tumor recurrence. This study aimed to evaluate a ... -
Tri-Compartmental Restriction Spectrum Imaging Breast Model Distinguishes Malignant Lesions from Benign Lesions and Healthy Tissue on Diffusion-Weighted Imaging
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) offers a potential adjunct to dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI to discriminate benign from malignant breast lesions by yielding quantitative information about tissue microstructure. Multi-component ... -
An Update on Prevalence, Assessment, and Risk Factors for Sleep Disturbances in Patients with Advanced Cancer—Implications for Health Care Providers and Clinical Research
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Simple Summary This review focuses on sleep in patients with advanced cancer. Cancer patients experience multiple symptoms and they receive concomitant medications. These are all factors that may affect sleep. In this ...
