Comparing radiopaque markers and 13C-labelled breath test in diabetic gastroparesis diagnostics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Purpose: Determining gastric emptying is mandatory in the diagnosis of diabetic gastroparesis. Several methods of investigation exist, but none has proven reliable, inexpensive and accessible. In this study, we aimed to ... -
Comparing screening outcomes for digital breast tomosynthesis and digital mammography by automated breast density in a randomized controlled trial: Results from the to-be trial
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background: Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is considered superior to digital mammography (DM) for women with dense breasts. Purpose: To identify differences in screening outcomes, including rates of recall, ... -
Comparing species-temperature relationships of arctic-alpine plants among three altitudinal transects in Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2008)Broad scale data has normally been used to predict vascular plant species responses to global climate change. The aim of this study is to investigate to what extent a high sampling resolution reveals local variations among ... -
Comparing the adsorption of methyl orange and malachite green on similar yet distinct polyamide microplastics: Uncovering hydrogen bond interactions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Microplastics (MPs) and dye pollutants are widespread in aquatic environments. Here, the adsorption characteristics of anionic dye methyl orange (MO) and cationic dye malachite green (MG) on polyamide 6 (PA6) and polyamide ... -
Comparing the effects of solar-related and terrestrial drivers on the northern polar vortex
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Northern polar vortex experiences significant variability during Arctic winter. Solar activity contributes to this variability via solar irradiance and energetic particle precipitation. Recent studies have found that ... -
Comparing the impact of upfront radiosurgery versus expectation in vestibular schwannoma (the V-REX study): protocol for a randomised, observer-blinded, 4-year, parallel-group, single-centre, superiority study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Introduction The optimal management of small-sized to medium-sized vestibular schwannoma (VS) is a matter of controversy. Clinical results of the prevailing treatment modalities (microsurgery, stereotactic radiosurgery ... -
Comparing the intrinsic dynamics of multiple protein structures using elastic network models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-05)Background: Elastic network models (ENMs) are based on the simple idea that a protein can be described as a set of particles connected by springs, which can then be used to describe its intrinsic flexibility using, for ... -
Comparing the mitochondrial signatures in ESCs and iPSCs and their neural derivations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have distinct origins: ESCs are derived from pre-implanted embryos while iPSCs are reprogrammed somatic cells. Both have their own characteristics and ... -
Comparing the motivational underpinnings of sustainable consumption across contexts using a scenario-based approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)A sample of tourists (N = 780) responded to a survey addressing purchasing intentions and consumption motives in relation to buying sustainable groceries at a local food market. These intentions and motives were contrasted ... -
Comparing the transcriptomes of embryos from domesticated and wild Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) stocks and examining factors that influence heritability of gene expression
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-03-17)Background: Due to selective breeding, domesticated and wild Atlantic salmon are genetically diverged, which raises concerns about farmed escapees having the potential to alter the genetic composition of wild populations ... -
Comparing Three Approaches to the Inducing Source Setting for the Ground Electromagnetic Field Modeling due to Space Weather Events
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Ground-based technological systems, such as power grids, can be affected by geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) during geomagnetic storms and magnetospheric substorms. This motivates the necessity to numerically simulate ... -

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Glioblastoma (GBM) recurrence after treatment is almost inevitable but addressing this issue with adequate preclinical models has remained challenging. Here, we introduce a GBM mouse model allowing non-invasive and scalable ... -
Comparing two interdisciplinary occupational rehabilitation programs for employees on sick leave: a mixed-method design study protocol
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and common mental disorders (CMDs) are the most frequent reasons for long-term sick leave and work disability. Occupational rehabilitation programs are used to help employees ... -
Comparing unplanned and potentially planned home deaths: a population-based cross-sectional study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-05-02)Background: There is little research on number of planned home deaths. We need information about factors associated with home deaths, but also differences between planned and unplanned home deaths to improve end-of-life-care ... -
