(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background: Pulmonary rehabilitation has been demonstrated to be a highly effective treatment for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, its availability is scarce worldwide, and new and ... -
A novel disorder involving dyshematopoiesis, inflammation, and HLH due to aberrant CDC42 function
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is characterized by immune dysregulation due to inadequate restraint of overactivated immune cells and is associated with a variable clinical spectrum having overlap with more common ... -
Novel endoscopic and MRI-based methods for evaluating exocrine pancreatic function in pancreatitis and monogenic forms of diabetes
(Doctoral thesis, 2013-11-15)Background: Monogenic diabetes (Maturity onset diabetes in the young, MODY) are autosomal dominantly inherited diabetes syndromes characterized by diabetes due to beta cell dysfunction, with typical onset of diabetes before ... -
A novel fibrosis index comprising a non-cholesterol sterol accurately predicts HCV-related liver cirrhosis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-04-03)Diagnosis of liver cirrhosis is essential in the management of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Liver biopsy is invasive and thus entails a risk of complications as well as a potential risk of sampling error. ... -
A novel Geriatric Assessment frailty score predicts two-year mortality after Transcatheter Aortic Valve implantation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-10-31)Aims Established surgical scores have limitations in delineating risk among candidates for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Assessment of frailty might help to estimate the mortality risk and identify patients ... -
Novel inflammatory biomarkers in thyroid eye disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Purpose: The aim of this study is to identify biochemical inflammatory markers predicting the presence or risk of developing thyroid eye disease (TED) in patients with Graves' disease (GD). Methods: Patients with GD ... -
Novel loci for childhood body mass index and shared heritability with adult cardiometabolic traits
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The genetic background of childhood body mass index (BMI), and the extent to which the well-known associations of childhood BMI with adult diseases are explained by shared genetic factors, are largely unknown. We performed ... -
The novel microRNAs hsa-miR-nov7 and hsamiR- nov3 are over-expressed in locally advanced breast cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)miRNAs are an important class of small non-coding RNAs, which play a versatile role in gene regulation at the post-transcriptional level. Expression of miRNAs is often deregulated in human cancers. We analyzed small RNA ... -
Novel neonatal simulator provides high-fidelity ventilation training comparable to real-life newborn ventilation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Face mask ventilation of apnoeic neonates is an essential skill. However, many non-paediatric healthcare personnel (HCP) in high-resource childbirth facilities receive little hands-on real-life practice. Simulation training ... -
Novel PCDH10-Wnt-MALAT1 regulatory axis in endometrioid endometrial adenocarcinoma
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Key Messages: 1. Protocadherin 10 (PCDH10) is silenced in endometrioid endometrial cancer through promoter hypermethylation. 2. Ectopic expression of PCDH10 inhibits tumour growth and induces cell apoptosis. 3. Transcriptomic ... -
Novel preoperative biomarkers and evaluation of altered treatment strategies to improve outcome for endometrial cancer patients
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-10-01)Background: Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecological cancer among women in countries with a high developmental index, and the incidence is expected to rise. Major controversies in the treatment of endometrial ... -
A Novel Prophylaxis Strategy Using Liposomal Vaccine Adjuvant CAF09b Protects against Influenza Virus Disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-02-06)The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic caused a massive health and societal crisis, although the fast development of effective vaccines reduced some of the impact. To prepare for future respiratory virus pandemics, a pan-viral prophylaxis ... -
Novel RAB27A Variant Associated with Late-Onset Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis Alters Effector Protein Binding
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Autosomal recessive mutations in RAB27A are associated with Griscelli syndrome type 2 (GS2), characterized by hypopigmentation and development of early-onset, potentially fatal hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). We ... -
Novel Reclassification of Adult Diabetes Is Useful to Distinguish Stages of β-Cell Function Linked to the Risk of Vascular Complications: The DOLCE Study From Northern Ukraine
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Presently, persons with diabetes are classified as having type 1 (T1D) or type 2 diabetes (T2D) based on clinical diagnosis. However, adult patients exhibit diverse clinical representations and this makes ... -
A novel splice-affecting HNF1A variant with large population impact on diabetes in Greenland
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background: The genetic disease architecture of Inuit includes a large number of common high-impact variants. Identification of such variants contributes to our understanding of the genetic aetiology of diseases and improves ... -
Novel STAT3 Inhibitors Targeting STAT3 Dimerization by Binding to the STAT3 SH2 Domain
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Our drug discovery model has identified two novel STAT3 SH2 domain inhibitors 323–1 and 323–2 (delavatine A stereoisomers) in a series of experiments. In silico computational modeling, drug affinity responsive target ... -
Novel transcriptional signatures for sputum-independent diagnostics of tuberculosis in children
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-07-19)Pediatric tuberculosis (TB) is challenging to diagnose, confirmed by growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis at best in 40% of cases. The WHO has assigned high priority to the development of non-sputum diagnostic tools. We ... -
