(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background: Burn care is centralized in highly specialized burn centers in Europe. These centers are of limited capacity and may be overwhelmed by a sudden surge in case of a burn mass casualty incident. Prior incidents ... -
Butterfly glioblastoma: Clinical characteristics, treatment strategies and outcomes in a population-based cohort
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Butterfly glioblastoma is a rare subgroup of glioblastoma with a bihemispheric tumor crossing the corpus callosum, and is associated with a dismal prognosis. Prognostic factors are previously sparsely described ... -
C- reactive protein in schizophrenia-spectrum disorders; relationship to cognitive functions and medications
(Doctoral thesis, 2019-12-05)Background: Schizophrenia spectrum disorders are severe mental illnesses characterized by psychotic symptoms, cognitive dysfunction and functional decline. Cognitive impairments have been recognized as core features of ... -
C77G in PTPRC (CD45) is no risk allele for ovarian cancer, but associated with less aggressive disease
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-07-31)The pan lymphocyte marker CD45 exists in various isoforms arising from alternative splicing of the exons 4, 5 and 6. While naïve T cells express CD45RA translated from an mRNA containing exon 4, exons 4–6 are spliced out ... -
Call for better response evaluation after neoadjuvant therapy in pancreatic cancer

Can bone apposition predict the retention force of a femoral stem? An experimental weight-bearing hip-implant model in goats
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-04-28)Background: The increasing incidence of prosthesis revision surgery in the Western world has led to an increased focus on the capacity for stem removal. We previously reported on a femoral stem implanted in goats with an ... -
Can the cardiovascular family history reported by our patients be trusted? The Norwegian Stroke in the Young Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-01)Background and purpose: Family history (FH) is used as a marker for inherited risk. Using FH for this purpose requires the FH to reflect true disease in the family. The aim was to analyse the concordance between young and ... -
Cancer and stroke: commonly encountered by clinicians, but little evidence to guide clinical approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The association between stroke and cancer is well-established. Because of an aging population and longer survival rates, the frequency of synchronous stroke and cancer will become even more common. Different pathophysiologic ... -
Cancer and Total Hip Replacement. Cancer as a risk factor for prosthesis and prosthesis as a risk factor for cancer
(Doctoral thesis, 2015-09-18)Annually, 14 million new cancer cases are detected worldwide; the numbers are expected to rise by 70% over the next decades. In Norway, 30,000 new cancer cases are detected every year. Because of screenings and increased ... -
Cancer cachexia associates with a systemic autophagy-inducing activity mimicked by cancer cell-derived IL-6 trans-signaling
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-05-17)The majority of cancer patients with advanced disease experience weight loss, including loss of lean body mass. Severe weight loss is characteristic for cancer cachexia, a condition that significantly impairs functional ... -
Cancer cell line-specific protein profiles in extracellular vesicles identified by proteomics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-04)Extracellular vesicles (EVs), are important for intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological processes. To explore the potential of cancer derived EVs as disease biomarkers for diagnosis, monitoring, ... -
Cancer epigenetics in solid organ tumours: A primer for surgical oncologists
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-05)Cancer is initiated through both genetic and epigenetic alterations. The end-effect of such changes to the DNA machinery is a set of uncontrolled mechanisms of cell division, invasion and, eventually, metastasis. Epigenetic ... -
Cancer in ANCA-Associated Glomerulonephritis: A Registry-Based Cohort Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-12-18)Background. Immunosuppressive therapy for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis has been associated with increased malignancy risk. Objectives. To quantify the cancer risk associated with contemporary ... -
Cancer related mortality in multiple sclerosis. A population based cohort study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background: Cancer is a major cause of death, but how cancer influences mortality risk in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is unclear. Objectives: Determine all-cause mortality and mortality following a cancer diagnosis among ... -
Cancer risk in children of mothers with epilepsy and high-dose folic acid use during pregnancy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Importance: Women with epilepsy are recommended high doses of folic acid before and during pregnancy owing to risk of congenital anomalies associated with antiseizure medications. Whether prenatal exposure to high-dose ... -
Cancer Stem Cell-Related Markers in Normal and Neoplastic Oral Mucosa. A study on human samples and experimental models
(Doctoral thesis, 2014-06-04)The existence of cancer stem cells (CSCs) in solid cancers is still a controversial issue. Several markers were successfully used to enrich for cells with stem cell-like properties in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). ... -
Cancer-Associated Ischemic Stroke: The Bergen NORSTROKE Study
(Doctoral thesis, 2018-05-25)Background: Stroke and cancer are both leading causes of death and disability in the Western world. Cancer can lead to a hypercoagulable state that can cause ischemic stroke. Mechanisms include disturbance of the coagulation ... -
