Biomarkers of inflammation and left ventricular remodelling in psoriasis patients treated with infliximab
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Objective: Psoriasis is an immune mediated disorder associated with T cell activation and cardiovascular disease (CVD). We explored the association of inflammation with left ventricular (LV) remodelling in psoriasis patients ... -
Biomarkers of one-carbon metabolism and B-vitamin status : Targeted metabolomics in rats and humans exploring the effects of PPARα-activation and dietary composition
(Doctoral thesis, 2019-10-04)BACKGROUND: One-carbon metabolism is an overarching term describing central metabolic pathways involved in the transfer of one-carbon units. These include the methionine-homocysteine and folate cycles, as well as the choline ... -
Biomarkers related to carotid intima-media thickness and plaques in long-term survivors of ischemic stroke
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-05-08)Lifestyle risk factors, inflammation and genetics play a role in the development of atherosclerosis. We therefore studied Fc gamma receptor (FcγR) polymorphisms, interleukin (IL)-10 polymorphisms and other biomarkers related ... -
Biomass fuel use for cooking in Nepalese families and child cognitive abilities, results from a community-based study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Biomass fuel use for cooking is widespread in low to middle income countries. Studies on the association between biomass fuel use and cognitive abilities in children are limited. Objective To examine the association ... -
Biomass of Scyphozoan Jellyfish, and Its Spatial Association with 0-Group Fish in the Barents Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-03-22)An 0-group fish survey is conducted annually in the Barents Sea in order to estimate fish population abundance. Data on jellyfish by-catch have been recorded since 1980, although this dataset has never been analysed. In ... -
Biomechanical analysis of groin related strength training exercises for injury prevention
(Master thesis, 2022-07-31)Purpose: Groin injuries in soccer are a widespread problem in sports medicine. One certain strength exercise, the Copenhagen adductor exercise, has shown an injury-preventing effect. But there are still many groin injuries, ... -

Biometri og GDPR. Innsamling av biometriske opplysninger med fokus på samtykke som behandlingsgrunnlag.
(Master thesis, 2020-07-11)Den teknologiske utviklingen har de siste årene medført økt bruk av biometriske identifikasjonsmetoder som ansiktsgjenkjenning, fingeravtrykksgjenkjenning og irisgjenkjenning, og har tilsvarende medført et økt behov for ... -
Biomineralisering i kalde grotter: eksempler fra Nordland
(Master thesis, 2019-06-26)Samhandlingen mellom biologi og geologi i grotter er fortsatt lite forstått. Dette gjelder spesielt for biomineralisering; prosessen der mikroorganismer danner mineraler. Med bakgrunn i dette er det i denne oppgaven ... -
Biomonitoring of Benzene and Effect of Wearing Respirators during an Oil Spill Field Trial at Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-10)Objectives The main aim of this study was to assess the biological uptake of benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) for subjects exposed to fresh crude oil released at sea. Methods: The study included 22 ... -
Bioorthogonal Non-canonical Amino Acid Tagging Combined With Flow Cytometry for Determination of Activity in Aquatic Microorganisms
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)In this study, we have combined bioorthogonal non-canonical amino acid tagging (BONCAT) and flow cytometry (FCM) analysis, and we demonstrate the applicability of the method for marine prokaryotes. Enumeration of active ... -
Biophysical analysis of Plasmodium falciparum Hsp70-Hsp90 organising protein (PfHop) reveals a monomer that is characterised by folded segments connected by flexible linkers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Plasmodium falciparum causes the most lethal form of malaria. The cooperation of heat shock protein (Hsp) 70 and 90 is thought to facilitate folding of select group of cellular proteins that are crucial for cyto-protection ... -
