Protocol for the Cognitive Interventions and Nutritional Supplements (CINS) trial: A randomized controlled multicenter trial of a brief intervention (BI) versus a BI plus cognitive behavioral treatment (CBT) versus nutritional supplements for patients with long-lasting muscle and back pain
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Background: Brief intervention programs are clinically beneficial, and cost efficient treatments for low back pain, when offered at 8-12 weeks, compared with treatment as usual. However, about 30% of the patients do not ... -
A protocol for the development and validation of a virtual reality-based clinical test of social cognition
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background Impairments in social cognition are common after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and may have severe negative consequences for patients and their families. Most tests of social cognition have limited ecological ... -
Protocol for the development of a core outcome set for pelvic girdle pain, including methods for measuring the outcomes: the PGP-COS study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP) is an important cause of disability and economic cost worldwide. There is a need for effective preventative and management strategies. Emerging studies measure a variety of outcomes ... -
Protocol for the Northern babies longitudinal study: predicting postpartum depression and improving parent–infant interaction with The Newborn Behavioral Observation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Introduction Postpartum depression (PPD) is a prevalent disorder. Studying the factors related to PPD will help to identify families at risk and provide preventive interventions. This can in turn improve the developmental ... -
Protocol for the PreventIT feasibility randomised controlled trial of a lifestyle-integrated exercise intervention in young older adults
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Introduction The European population is rapidly ageing. In order to handle substantial future challenges in the healthcare system, we need to shift focus from treatment towards health promotion. The PreventIT project has ... -
Protocol of a randomised, controlled trial comparing immediate curative therapy with conservative treatment in men aged ≥75 years with non-metastatic high-risk prostate cancer (SPCG 19/GRand-P)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Background Older men (aged ≥75 years) with high risk, non-metastatic prostate cancer (PCa) are increasingly treated with curative therapy (surgery or radiotherapy). However, it is unclear if curative therapy prolongs ... -
Proton magnetic resonance metabolomic characterization of ovarian serous carcinoma effusions: chemotherapy-related effects and comparison with malignant mesothelioma and breast carcinoma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Malignant serous effusions are a common manifestation of advanced cancer, associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to identify the metabolic differences between ovarian serous carcinoma ... -
Proton pump inhibitors and fracture risk. The HUNT study, Norway.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Summary Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have been linked to increased risk of fracture; the data have, however, been diverging. We did not find any increased risk of fractures among users of PPIs in a Norwegian population ... -
Prototype Experiments: Strategies and Trade-offs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Throughout the whole product development process, there is always a question on whether the proposed product is “up to its task”, and often it is up to the engineer or designer to answer these questions. In many cases, ... -
Prototyping installation and commissioning of novel a cleaning robot by using virtual tools – lessons learned
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This paper presents a simulation study in which virtual product development tools are used to support the design of a novel robotic cleaning solution for fish processing facilities. The installation and commissioning of ... -
Prototyping to Leverage Learning in Product Manufacturing Environments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Rooted in the automotive industry, this article discusses the topic of leveraging tacit knowledge through prototyping. After first providing an overview on learning and knowledge, the Socialization, Externalization, ... -
Protozoan ALKBH8 Oxygenases Display both DNA Repair and tRNA Modification Activities
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The ALKBH family of Fe(II) and 2-oxoglutarate dependent oxygenases comprises enzymes that display sequence homology to AlkB from E. coli, a DNA repair enzyme that uses an oxidative mechanism to dealkylate methyl and etheno ... -

Providing quality data in health care - Almost perfect inter-rater agreement in the Norwegian tonsil surgery register
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background The Norwegian Tonsil Surgery Register (NTSR) was launched in January 2017. The purpose of the register is to present data on tonsil surgery to facilitate improvements in patient care. Data used for evaluating ... -
Provincial and sector-level material footprints in China
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)High-income countries often outsource material demands to poorer countries along with the associated environmental damage. This phenomenon can also occur within (large) countries, such as China, which was responsible for ... -
Provisioning tactics of great tits (Parus major) in response to long-term brood size manipulations differ across years
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Parents provisioning their offspring can adopt different tactics to meet increases in offspring demand. In this study, we experimentally manipulated brood demand in free living great tits (Parus major) via brood size ... -
Proximal–Distal Motor Control in Skilled Drummers: The Effect on Tapping Frequency of Mechanically Constraining Joints of the Arms in Skilled Drummers and Unskilled Controls
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Previous studies have shown faster tapping speed and better tapping symmetry in drummers, compared with nondrummers. The present study investigated the effect on tapping frequency of mechanically constraining the joints ... -
Proximity effect with noncentrosymmetric superconductors
(Journal article, 2012)We describe the superconducting proximity effect taking place in a contact between a noncentrosymmetric superconductor and a diffusive normal/ferromagnetic metal within the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. By ... -
Proximity to high densities of pastoral settlements reduces grassland regrowth in a protected tropical savanna
