Detection of germline variants with pathogenic potential in 48 patients with familial colorectal cancer by using whole exome sequencing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background Hereditary genetic mutations causing predisposition to colorectal cancer are accountable for approximately 30% of all colorectal cancer cases. However, only a small fraction of these are high penetrant mutations ... -
Detection of Nonadherence to Antihypertensive Treatment by Measurements of Serum Drug Concentrations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Nonadherence to drugs is a challenge in hypertension treatment. We aimed to assess the prevalence of nonadherence by serum drug concentrations compared with 2 indirect methods and relate to the prescribed drug regimens in ... -
Detection of recurrent prostate cancer with 18F-Fluciclovine PET/MRI
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objective: Simultaneous PET/MRI combines soft-tissue contrast of MRI with high molecular sensitivity of PET in one session. The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate detection rates of recurrent prostate cancer by ... -
Detection of subgenomic mRNA from endemic human coronavirus OC43 and NL63 compared to viral genomic loads, single virus detection and clinical manifestations in children with respiratory tract infections
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background The importance of endemic human coronavirus (HCoV) in children has been insufficiently elucidated upon. Our aims were to develop subgenomic (sg) mRNA tests for HCoV species OC43 and NL63, and to evaluate the ... -
Determinants for Effective ALECSAT Immunotherapy Treatment on Autologous Patient-Derived Glioblastoma Stem Cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive primary brain tumor with a median survival of less than 15 months, emphasizing the need for better treatments. Immunotherapy as a treatment for improving or aiding the patient’s ... -
Determinants of trabecular bone score and prevalent vertebral fractures in women with fragility fractures: a cross-sectional sub-study of NoFRACT
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Summary - Determinants of trabecular bone score (TBS) and vertebral fractures assessed semiquantitatively (SQ1–SQ3) were studied in 496 women with fragility fractures. TBS was associated with age, parental hip fracture, ... -
Determination of psychoactive drugs in serum using conductive vial electromembrane extraction combined with UHPLC-MS/MS
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Conductive vial electromembrane extraction (EME) with prototype equipment was applied for the first time to extract lipophilic basic drugs from serum. With this equipment, traditional platinum electrodes were replaced with ... -
Developing Cognition Endpoints for the CENTER-TBI Neuropsychological Test Battery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: Measuring cognitive functioning is common in traumatic brain injury (TBI) research, but no universally accepted method for combining several neuropsychological test scores into composite, or summary, scores ... -
Developing Quality Indicators for Helicopter Emergency Medical Services Coordination in Norwegian Emergency Medical Communication Centrals: A Consensus Process
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objective Efforts to optimize the use, availability, and safety of helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS) is important. A lack of consistent and comprehensive flight dispatch procedures and a lack of use of safety ... -
Development and course of chronic widespread pain: the role of time and pain characteristics (the HUNT pain study)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Chronic widespread pain (CWP) is common and associated with loss of functioning and health. Subjects with chronic nonwidespread pain (CnWP) are at increased risk of developing CWP, but few studies have described the nature ... -
Development and delivery of patient treatment in the Trondheim Hip Fracture Trial. A new geriatric in-hospital pathway for elderly patients with hip fracture
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Background Hip fractures are common among frail elderly persons and often have serious consequences on function, mobility and mortality. Traditional treatment of these patients is performed in orthopedic departments without ... -
