Mortality in older adults with frequent alcohol consumption and use of drugs with addiction potential – The Nord Trøndelag Health Study 2006-2008 (HUNT3), Norway, a population-based study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background The aim of this study was to investigate whether frequent drinking, use of drugs with addiction potential and the possible combination of frequent drinking and use of prescribed drugs with addiction potential ... -
Mortality is increased in patients with rheumatoid arthritis or diabetes compared to the general population – the Nord-Trøndelag Health Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Persons with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or diabetes have increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and higher death rates compared to the general population. This study used data from the population-based Nord-Trøndelag ... -
Motor activity across delirium motor subtypes in geriatric patients assessed using body-worn sensors: a Norwegian cross-sectional study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Objectives It remains unclear if geriatric patients with different delirium motor subtypes express different levels of motor activity. Thus, we used two accelerometer-based devices to simultaneously measure upright activity ... -

MRD-driven treatment with venetoclax-R2 in mantle cell lymphoma: the Nordic Lymphoma Group MCL7 VALERIA trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Despite improvements in treatment of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), most patients eventually relapse. In this multicenter phase 1b/2 trial, we evaluated safety and efficacy of minimal residual disease (MRD)-driven venetoclax, ... -
MRI Imaging of the Hemodynamic Vasculature of Neuroblastoma Predicts Response to Antiangiogenic Treatment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Childhood neuroblastoma is a hypervascular tumor of neural origin, for which antiangiogenic drugs are currently being evaluated; however, predictive biomarkers of treatment response, crucial for successful delivery of ... -
MRI in the Assessment of TMJ-Arthritis in Children with JIA; Repeatability of a Newly Devised Scoring System
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Rationale and Objectives: The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is commonly involved in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis. The diagnosis and evaluation of the disease progression is dependent on medical imaging. The ... -
MRI-guided adaptive brachytherapy in locally advanced cervical cancer (EMBRACE-I): a multicentre prospective cohort study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background - The concept of the use of MRI for image-guided adaptive brachytherapy (IGABT) in locally advanced cervical cancer was introduced 20 years ago. Here, we report on EMBRACE-I, which aimed to evaluate local tumour ... -
MRPS23 amplification and gene expression in breast cancer; association with proliferation and the non-basal subtypes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Purpose MRPS23 is recognized as a driver of proliferation in luminal breast cancer. The aims of the present study were to describe MRPS23 copy number change in breast cancer, and to assess associations between MRPS23 ... -

MTHFR C677T and A1298C polymorphism’s effect on risk of colorectal cancer in Lynch syndrome
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Lynch syndrome (LS) is characterised by an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC) and other extracolonic epithelial cancers. It is caused by pathogenic germline variants in DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes or ... -
Mucosal 5-aminosalicylic acid concentration, drug formulation and mucosal microbiome in patients with quiescent ulcerative colitis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background 5‐aminosalicylic acid (5‐ASA) is the first‐line therapy for ulcerative colitis (UC). 5‐ASA acts locally in the colonic mucosa by numerous proposed mechanisms, and is metabolised by N‐acetyltransferase (NAT). ... -
Mucosal and faecal neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin as potential biomarkers for collagenous colitis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background Collagenous colitis (CC) is an inflammatory bowel disease where chronic diarrhoea is the main symptom. Diagnostic markers distinguishing between CC and other causes of chronic diarrhoea remain elusive. This study ... -
Multi-ancestry genome-wide association analyses improve resolution of genes and pathways influencing lung function and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease risk
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Lung-function impairment underlies chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and predicts mortality. In the largest multi-ancestry genome-wide association meta-analysis of lung function to date, comprising 580,869 ... -
Multi-ancestry meta-analysis identifies 5 novel loci for ischemic stroke and reveals heterogeneity of effects between sexes and ancestries
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Stroke is the second leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Stroke prevalence varies by sex and ancestry, possibly due to genetic heterogeneity between subgroups. We performed a genome-wide meta-analysis of 16 ... -
A multi-layer functional genomic analysis to understand noncoding genetic variation in lipids
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)A major challenge of genome-wide association studies (GWASs) is to translate phenotypic associations into biological insights. Here, we integrate a large GWAS on blood lipids involving 1.6 million individuals from five ... -
Multi-modal characterization of vasculature and nanoparticle accumulation in five tumor xenograft models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Preclinical research has demonstrated that nanoparticles and macromolecules can accumulate in solid tumors due to the enhanced permeability and retention effect. However, drug loaded nanoparticles often fail to show increased ... -
Multi-timescale microscopy methods for the characterization of fluorescently-labeled microbubbles for ultrasound-triggered drug release
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Microbubble contrast agents hold great promise for drug delivery applications with ultrasound. Encapsulating drugs in nanoparticles reduces systemic toxicity and increases circulation time of the drugs. In a novel approach ... -
