Morphomolecular alterations in the skin mucosa of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) after exposure to peracetic acid-based disinfectant
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Peroxygen-based chemotherapeutants are commonly used in treating ectoparasitic infections in fish. A majority of relevant studies address the effects of these substances on the targeted causative agents, but little is known ... -
Morphotectonic Evolution of Passive Margins Undergoing Active Surface Processes: Large-Scale Experiments Using Numerical Models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Extension of the continental lithosphere can lead to the formation of rifted margins with contrasting tectonic and geomorphologic characteristics. Many of these characteristics depend on the manner extension spatially ... -
Morris Jesup Spur and Rise north of Greenland – exploring present seabed features, the history of sediment deposition, volcanism and tectonic deformation at a Late Cretaceous/early Cenozoic triple junction in the Arctic Ocean
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The narrow Morris Jesup Spur and an adjacent broader western rise extend 220 km into the Eurasia Basin from the shelf edge north of Greenland. We have used a hovercraft platform drifting with the sea to collect the first ... -

Mortality among retired offshore divers in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Background: Health effects of diving have been observed in divers who have not experienced any diving related accidents. The aim of the study was to study total, and cause specific mortality, in Norwegian retired professional ... -
Mortality and cause of death in multiple sclerosis in western Norway 1950-2021: A registry-based linkage study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) have higher risk of mortality compared with the general population. Longitudinal studies are important for understanding the evolution of survival in pwMS. Objective ... -
Mortality and health-related quality of life in prevalent dialysis patients: Comparison between 12-items and 36-items short-form health survey
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-05-06)Background: To assess health- related quality of life (HRQOL) with SF-12 and SF-36 and compare their abilities to predict mortality in chronic dialysis patients, after adjusting for traditional risk factors. Methods: The ... -
Mortality and non-use of antipsychotic drugs after acute admission in schizophrenia: A prospective total-cohort study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: In society at large, it is debated whether use of antipsychotic drugs is associated with increased or decreased mortality among patients with schizophrenia. Large register studies have demonstrated an increased ... -
Mortality and work-related disability as long-term consequences of anxiety and depression: historical cohort designs based on the HUNT-2 study
(Doctoral thesis, 2006-10-12)Objective: Over the last decades, quality epidemiological studies have repeatedly shown that the prevalence of mental illness is substantial, but still largely under-recognised and undertreated. Under-recognition in general ... -
Mortality following first-time hospitalization with acute myocardial infarction in Norway, 2001-2014: Time trends, underlying causes and place of death
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-11)Background Trends on cause-specific mortality following acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are poorly described and no studies have analyzed where do AMI patients die. We analyzed trends in 28-day and one-year mortality ... -
Mortality in epilepsy and the influence of comorbid conditions and antiepileptic drugs
(Doctoral thesis, 2013-05-31)Purpose: Based on a clinical observation, this study was initiated to examine whether treatment with lamotrigine (LTG) is associated with an increased risk of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) in sub-groups of ... -
