Precarity in Exile: The Legal Status of Syrian Refugees in Lebanon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-12)Lebanon has had an ambiguous approach to the more than one million Syrians seeking protection in the country since 2011. The country is neither party to the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees, nor does it ... -
Precessional Cyclicity of Seawater Pb Isotopes in the Late Miocene Mediterranean
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-12)Astronomical tuning in the Mediterranean region is primarily based on organically‐mediated proxies, such as cyclicity of organic rich layers or changes in foraminiferal assemblages. Both during and post deposition, organic ... -
Precise description of medium-induced emissions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We study jet fragmentation via final-state parton splittings in the medium. These processes are usually calculated theoretically by invoking the large-Nc limit. In this paper we perform the first computation of a 1 → 2 ... -
Precise Yet Uncertain: Broadening Understandings of Uncertainty and Policy in the BPA Controversy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the most studied and most controversial chemicals used by the food packaging industry, because of its endocrine disruptive properties. Part of the controversy is due to the uncertainty that ... -
Precision and Uncertainty : Cancer biomarkers and new perspectives on fairness in priority setting decisions in personalized medicine
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-09-24)Introduction: Precision oncology aims to tailor diagnostics and treatment to patients’ individual biological characteristics, and a central part of this approach is the stratification of patients into smaller groups. This ... -
Precision identification of high-risk phenotypes and progression pathways in severe malaria without requiring longitudinal data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)More than 400,000 deaths from severe malaria (SM) are reported every year, mainly in African children. The diversity of clinical presentations associated with SM indicates important differences in disease pathogenesis that ... -
Precision medicine and the principle of equal treatment: a conjoint analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: In precision medicine biomarkers stratify patients into groups that are offered different treatments, but this may conflict with the principle of equal treatment. While some patient characteristics are seen as ... -
Preclinical cardiac disease in women and men with primary aldosteronism
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Purpose: We tested the sex-specific associations between primary aldosteronism (PA), left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and LV systolic myocardial function. Material and methods: Conventional and speckle tracking ... -
Preclinical Evaluation of the Pan-FGFR Inhibitor LY2874455 in FRS2-Amplified Liposarcoma
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-02-21)Background: FGFR inhibition has been proposed as treatment for dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS) with amplified FRS2, but we previously only demonstrated transient cytostatic effects when treating FRS2-amplified DDLPS ... -
Preclinical models and molecular biomarkers. Tools to improve treatment in endometrial carcinoma
(Doctoral thesis, 2018-11-30)Background: Endometrial carcinoma is the fourth most common cancer in European women, and incidence is increasing. No major improvements in treatment or survival have been achieved over the last decades, and an individualized ... -
Preclinical molecular imaging in oncology – From chemical synthesis to clinical translatable applications
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-06-25)Background: Molecular imaging (MI) is fundamental in clinical settings for diagnosis, treatment selection, intraoperative guidance and treatment efficacy evaluation. This field has progressed rapidly in recent years, driven ... -
Preconception cardiovascular risk factor differences between gestational hypertension and preeclampsia: Cohort Norway study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Preconception predictors of gestational hypertension and preeclampsia may identify opportunities for early detection and improve our understanding of the pathogenesis and life course epidemiology of these conditions. Female ... -
Preconception folic acid supplement use in immigrant women (1999-2016)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09-27)This study examines how preconception folic acid supplement use varied in immigrant women compared with non-immigrant women. We analyzed national population-based data from Norway from 1999–2016, including 1,055,886 ... -
