Iodine content of dietary supplements available on the Norwegian market
(Master thesis, 2021-05-18)Background: Insufficient iodine intake has been reported in groups of the Norwegian population. This is of concern, as iodine is an essential nutrient required throughout life. With few dietary sources of iodine, supplementation ... -
Iodine deficiency in a study population of Norwegian pregnant women - results from the Little in Norway study (LiN)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-04-20)Iodine sufficiency is particularly important in pregnancy, where median urinary iodine concentration (UIC) in the range of 150–250 µg/L indicates adequate iodine status. The aims of this study were to determine UIC and ... -
Iodine Nutrition and Iodine Supplement Initiation in Association with Thyroid Function in Mildly-to-Moderately Iodine-Deficient Pregnant and Postpartum Women
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Whereas the adverse effects of severe iodine deficiency during pregnancy are well documented, the effects of mild-to-moderate deficiency are not well established. Objectives: We aimed to explore whether ... -
Iodine nutrition and toxicity in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) larvae
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-02-19)Copepods as feed promote better growth and development in marine fish larvae than rotifers. However, unlike rotifers, copepods contain several minerals such as iodine (I), at potentially toxic levels. Iodine is an essential ... -
Iodine status and thyroid function in a group of seaweed consumers in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Seaweeds, or macroalgae, may be a good dietary iodine source but also a source of excessive iodine intake. The main aim in this study was to describe the iodine status and thyroid function in a group of macroalgae consumers. ... -
Iodine status in Norwegian preschool children and associations with dietary iodine sources: the FINS-KIDS study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Purpose. Iodine is an essential trace element necessary for thyroid hormone synthesis. Iodine deficiency is a continuing public health problem despite international efforts to eliminate it. Studies on iodine status in ... -
Iodine status in Norwegian preschool children and significance of dietary sources of iodine and parental socio-economic factors - A cross-sectional study
(Master thesis, 2016-05-15)Iodine is an essential trace element with important physiological effects in the human body. Iodine is necessary for thyroid hormone synthesis. The hormones are needed for tissue development in the central nervous system, ... -
Iodine status in women attending Mnazi Mmoja Hospital in Zanzibar: a matched case-control study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Iodine deficiency can have adverse health effects in all age groups affecting growth, development and cognitive functions as well as the incidence of goitre. Worldwide, the most important dietary source of ... -
Iodinin (1,6-dihydroxyphenazine 5,10-dioxide) from Streptosporangium sp. induces apoptosis selectively in myeloid leukemia cell lines and patient cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-01-30)Despite recent improvement in therapy, acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is still associated with high lethality. In the presented study, we analyzed the bioactive compound iodinin (1,6-dihydroxyphenazine 5,10-dioxide) from a ... -
Ion Behaviors in the Reconnection Diffusion Region of a Corrugated Magnetotail Current Sheet
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The current sheet structure and ion behaviors in a magnetotail reconnection diffusion region are investigated. The multispacecraft analysis suggests a corrugated current sheet structure, interpreted as due to a flapping ... -
Ion transporters and osmoregulation in the kidney of teleost fishes as a function of salinity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021-04-20)Euryhaline teleosts exhibit major changes in renal function as they move between freshwater (FW) and seawater (SW) environments, thus tolerating large fluctuations in salinity. In FW, the kidney excretes large volumes of ... -
Ionic strength and calcium regulate membrane interactions of myelin basic protein and the cytoplasmic domain of myelin protein zero
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The formation of a mature myelin sheath in the vertebrate nervous system requires specific protein-membrane interactions. Several myelin-specific proteins are involved in stacking lipid membranes into multilayered structures ... -
Ionization dynamics beyond the dipole approximation induced by the pulse envelope
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-05)When atoms and molecules are ionized by laser pulses of finite duration and increasingly high intensities, the validity of the much-used dipole approximation, in which the spatial dependence and magnetic component of the ... -
The ionization dynamics of atoms and molecules exposed to short pulses
(Doctoral thesis; Peer reviewed, 2013-08-29)The electrons ejected in an ionization event initiated by an incident laser pulse carry detailed information about the structure and the correlation intrinsic to atoms and molecules. This information is essential for our ... -
IP-10 differentiates between active and latent tuberculosis irrespective of HIV status and declines during therapy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-04)Objectives: Biomarkers for diagnosis and therapy efficacy in tuberculosis (TB) are requested. We have studied biomarkers that may differentiate between active and latent TB infection (LTBI), the influence of HIV infection ... -
IP-10 dried blood spots assay monitoring treatment efficacy in extrapulmonary tuberculosis in a low-resource setting
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03-07)Treatment efficacy is difficult to evaluate in extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) patients. Interferon-γ inducible protein (IP-)10 has been suggested as a biomarker for response to treatment. We have investigated if IP-10 ... -
