A 36-month follow-up of decline in activities of daily living in individuals receiving domiciliary care
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Background There have been few studies of how personal and instrumental activities of daily living (P-ADL and I-ADL) develop over time in older people receiving domiciliary care. This study aimed at assessing variables ... -
A balanced tissue composition reveals new metabolic and gene expression markers in prostate cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Molecular analysis of patient tissue samples is essential to characterize the in vivo variability in human cancers which are not accessible in cell-lines or animal models. This applies particularly to studies of tumor ... -
A European multicentre evaluation of detection and typing methods for human enteroviruses and parechoviruses using RNA transcripts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detection has become the gold standard for diagnosis and typing of enterovirus (EV) and human parechovirus (HPeV) infections. Its effectiveness depends critically on using the appropriate ... -
A massive parallel sequencing workflow for diagnostic genetic testing of mismatch repair genes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The purpose of this study was to develop a massive parallel sequencing (MPS) workflow for diagnostic analysis of mismatch repair (MMR) genes using the GS Junior system (Roche). A pathogenic variant in one of four MMR genes, ... -
A meta-analysis of constraint-induced movement therapy after stroke
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Objective: To evaluate the effect of constraint-induced movement therapy in adult stroke patients and to examine the impact of time since stroke and various treatment modalities. Data sources: PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane and ... -
A much valued tool that also brings ethical dilemmas-a qualitative study of Norwegian midwives' experiences and views on the role of obstetric ultrasound
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background: Midwives are the main providers of routine antenatal care services including the routine ultrasound examination in Norway. The ultrasound examination can be perceived by expectant parents not only as a medical ... -

A multi-center comparison of vO2peak trainability between interval training and moderate intensity continuous training
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)There is heterogeneity in the observed www.frontiersin.orgO2peak response to similar exercise training, and different exercise approaches produce variable degrees of exercise response (trainability). The aim of this study ... -
A multiparameter model for non-invasive detection of hypoglycemia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Objective: Severe hypoglycemia is the most serious acute complication for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Approximately 25% of people with T1D have impaired ability to recognize impending hypoglycemia, and nocturnal ... -
A new acoustic coupling fluid with ability to reduce ultrasound imaging artefacts in brain tumour surgery - a phase I study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background Anovel acoustic coupling fluid (ACF), with the potential to reduce surgically induced image artefacts during intraoperative ultrasound imaging in brain tumour surgery, has been evaluated with respect to image ... -
A property-based analysis of human transcription factors
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Background Transcription factors are essential proteins for regulating gene expression. This regulation depends upon specific features of the transcription factors, including how they interact with DNA, how they interact ... -
A prospective study examining cachexia predictors in patients with incurable cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background Early intervention against cachexia necessitates a predictive model. The aims of this study were to identify predictors of cachexia development and to create and evaluate accuracy of a predictive model based ... -
A randomized study on migration of the Spectron EF and the Charnley flanged 40 cemented femoral components using radiostereometric analysis at 2 years
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Background and purpose We performed a randomized study to determine the migration patterns of the Spectron EF femoral stem and to compare them with those of the Charnley stem, which is regarded by many as the gold standard ... -
A small molecule activator of AKT does not reduce ischemic injury of the rat heart
