Metabolic rates, swimming capabilities, thermal niche and stress response of the lumpfish, cyclopterus lumpus
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-09-03)The lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) is a semi-pelagic globiform teleost native to the North Atlantic with a ventral suction disc that allows for attachment onto surfaces. Some local populations are in decline and the species ... -
Metabolic risk factors for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma: a prospective study of 580 000 subjects within the Me-Can project
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02-18)Background: Obesity is associated with an increased risk of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and a decreased risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, little is known about the risk of EAC and ESCC related ... -
Metabolic risk score and cancer risk: pooled analysis of seven cohorts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Background: There are few data on the joint influence of metabolic factors on risk of separate cancers. Methods: We analysed data on body mass index, blood pressure and plasma levels of glucose, total cholesterol and ... -
Metabolic role of the hepatic valine/3-hydroxyisobutyrate (3-HIB) pathway in fatty liver disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background: The valine (branched-chain amino acid) metabolite 3-hydroxyisobutyrate (3-HIB), produced by 3-Hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA Hydrolase (HIBCH), is associated with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, but implicated ... -
Metabolic serum profiles for patients receiving allogeneic stem cell transplantation: the pretransplant profile differs for patients with and without posttransplant capillary leak syndrome
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-12)Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is commonly used in the treatment of younger patients with severe hematological diseases, and endothelial cells seem to be important for the development of several posttransplant ... -
The metabolic syndrome and cardiometabolic risk factors in children and adolescents: Associations between different anthropometric measurements and cardiometabolic risk factors
(Master thesis, 2015-05-15)Introduction: The prevalence of pediatric obesity has increased worldwide during the last decades, and is currently a serious health challenge, as it causes extensive health problems in terms of cardiovascular comorbidities ... -
Metabolic syndrome as a risk factor for total hip or knee replacement due to primary osteoarthritis: A prospective cohort study (the HUNT study and the Norwegian arthroplasty register)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-01-10)Objective: Biochemical changes associated with obesity may accelerate osteoarthritis beyond the effect of mechanical factors. This study investigated whether metabolic syndrome and its components (visceral obesity, ... -
Metabolically (un)healthy obesity and risk of obesity-related cancers: a pooled study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Studies of obesity with or without metabolic aberrations, commonly termed metabolically unhealthy or healthy obesity, in relation to cancer risk are scarce. Methods We investigated body mass index (normal ... -
Metabolomic and transcriptomic response to imatinib treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumour in xenograft-bearing mice
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Although imatinib is a well-established first-line drug for treating a vast majority of gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST), GISTs acquire secondary resistance during therapy. Multi-omics approaches provide ... -
Metabolomics identifies placental dysfunction and confirms Flt-1 (FMS-like tyrosine kinase receptor 1) biomarker specificity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Clinical end-stage parameters define the pregnancy disorders preeclampsia and fetal growth restriction while classification of the underlying placental dysfunction is missing and urgently needed. Flt-1 (FMS-like tyrosine ... -
Metacognition and Mindfulness: the Role of Fringe Consciousness
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-02-22)The involvement of metacognition in mindfulness is already acknowledged in recent mindfulness models. The focus of the current paper is on how mindfulness may be seen to involve a particular subcategory of metacognitive ... -
Metacognition and reading: Comparing three forms of metacognition in normally developing readers and readers with dyslexia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-08)Metacognition refers to ‘cognition about cognition’ and includes metacognitive knowledge, strategies and experiences (Efklides, 2008; Flavell, 1979). Research on reading has shown that better readers demonstrate more ... -
Metacognition in Language Learning and Teaching
(Routledge Studies in Applied Linguistics, Book; Peer reviewed, 2018)This volume offers an exhaustive look at the latest research on metacognition in language learning and teaching. While other works have explored certain notions of metacognition in language learning and teaching, this book, ... -
Metacognition in psychology
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)How has the concept of metacognition been used within basic and applied psychological research? We begin our answer by presenting a broad definition of metacognition, a historical overview of its development and its presence ... -
Metacognitive therapy versus cognitive–behavioural therapy in adults with generalised anxiety disorder
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Background: Cognitive–behavioural therapy (CBT) is the treatment of choice for generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), yielding significant improvements in approximately 50% of patients. There is significant room ... -
Metadata made easy - Adding metadata by means of natural language
(Master thesis, 2013-06-01)The rapid increase in the amount of information generated highlights the need for better strategies for searching for relevant content. Using Semantic Web technologies we can search using concepts and their properties and ... -
Metagenome-assembled genome distribution and key functionality highlight importance of aerobic metabolism in Svalbard permafrost
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Permafrost underlies a large portion of the land in the Northern Hemisphere. It is proposed to be an extreme habitat and home for cold-adaptive microbial communities. Upon thaw permafrost is predicted to exacerbate increasing ... -
