Vanilla bisquits and lobola bridewealth: parallel discourses on early pregnancy and schooling in rural Zambia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Adolescent pregnancy is a complex socio-economic phenomenon ranking high on the global health policy agenda. Early childbearing is associated with early marriage and school drop-out, and is defined as a problem ... -
AN1-type zinc finger protein 3 (ZFAND3) is a transcriptional regulator that drives Glioblastoma invasion
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The infiltrative nature of Glioblastoma (GBM), the most aggressive primary brain tumor, critically prevents complete surgical resection and masks tumor cells behind the blood brain barrier reducing the efficacy of systemic ... -
Visception: An Interactive Visual Framework for Nested Visualization Design
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Nesting is the embedding of charts into the marks of another chart. Related to principles such as Tufte’s rule of utilizing micro/macro readings, nested visualizations have been employed to increase information density, ... -
Body mass index and weight change are associated with adult lung function trajectories: the prospective ECRHS study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Previous studies have reported an association between weight increase and excess lung function decline in young adults followed for short periods. We aimed to estimate lung function trajectories during adulthood ... -
Dampness and mold at home and at work and onset of insomnia symptoms, snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Aim To investigate whether exposure to dampness and mold at home and at work induce sleep disturbances and daytime sleepiness among adults. Materials and methods Associations between onset of sleep disturbances and ... -
Haldningar til strilemål i og rundt Bergen
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Strilemål er typisk nok ein dialekt som vert snakka av strilar, men er det knytt ulik status til det å vera stril og det å vera frå byen, og er dette i så fall eit uttrykk for ulike maktforhold mellom dialektane? I denne ... -
S3-inspired three-Higgs-doublet models: A class with a complex vacuum
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)In this paper we analyze in detail an S3-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet model with a specific vacuum configuration. This analysis allows us to illustrate important features of models with several Higgs doublets, such as the ... -
Suicide gene therapy for the treatment of high-grade glioma: past lessons, present trends, and future prospects
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Suicide gene therapy has represented an experimental cancer treatment modality for nearly 40 years. Among the various cancers experimentally treated by suicide gene therapy, high-grade gliomas have been the most prominent ... -
Improving response to progestin treatment of low-grade endometrial cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Objectives This review examines how response rates to progestin treatment of low-grade endometrial cancer can be improved. In addition to providing a brief overview of the pathogenesis of low-grade endometrial cancer, ... -
An experimental study on the effects of winglets on the tip vortex interaction in the near wake of a model wind turbine
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)An experimental study of the near wake up to four rotor diameters behind a model wind turbine rotor with two different wing tip configurations is performed. A straight-cut wing tip and a downstream-facing winglet shape are ... -
Reduced delays in diagnostic pathways for non-small cell lung cancer after local and National initiatives
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Objectives Patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) may experience progression and stage shift due to delays in a complex and time-consuming diagnostic work-up. We have analyzed the impact of both a local and ... -
Spatiotemporal gait parameters for older adults – An interactive model adjusting reference data for gender, age, and body height
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Introduction Since it is well documented that spatiotemporal gait parameters are affected by body size, it is of limited clinical value to compare individual scores against reference values without taking body size into ... -
Neonatal sepsis at Mulago national referral hospital in Uganda: Etiology, antimicrobial resistance, associated factors and case fatality risk
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Sepsis is the third most common cause of death among neonates, with about 225,000 newborns dying every year globally. Data concerning the microbial etiology of neonatal sepsis and antimicrobial resistance ... -
The Feasibility of the Full and Modified Versions of the Alarm Distress Baby Scale (ADBB) and the Prevalence of Social Withdrawal in Infants in Nepal
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background: Sustained social withdrawal in infancy may have organic and nonorganic causes and could hinder normal development. The Alarm Distress Baby (ADBB) scale is a widely validated screening tool of social withdrawal ... -
Physical activity and lung function—Cause or consequence?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Concerns exist that the positive association of physical activity with better lung function, which has been suggested in previous longitudinal studies in smokers, is due to reverse causation. To investigate this, we applied ... -
Quartz overgrowth textures and fluid inclusion thermometry evidence for basin-scale sedimentary recycling: An example from the Mesozoic Barents Sea Basin
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Sedimentary recycling has the potential to obscure source-to-sink relationships, provenance interpretations, burial history reconstructions and robust reservoir quality predictions in siliciclastic sedimentary basins. Here, ... -
The Role of the Stratosphere in Subseasonal to Seasonal Prediction: 1. Predictability of the Stratosphere
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-18)The stratosphere has been identified as an important source of predictability for a range of processes on subseasonal to seasonal (S2S) time scales. Knowledge about S2S predictability within the stratosphere is however ... -
A Bit-Vector Differential Model for the Modular Addition by a Constant
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)ARX algorithms are a class of symmetric-key algorithms constructed by Addition, Rotation, and XOR, which achieve the best software performances in low-end microcontrollers. To evaluate the resistance of an ARX cipher against ... -
Mapping collinear in-medium parton splittings
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-01-07)We map the spectrum of 1→2 parton splittings inside a medium characterized by a transport coefficient q^ onto the kinematical Lund plane, taking into account the finite formation time of the process. We discuss the distinct ... -
Dynamics of anomalous stratospheric eddy heat flux events in an idealized model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-05-28)Extreme stratospheric eddy and sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) events both involve anomalous stratospheric eddy heat flux. The cause of the anomaly has been hypothesized to be due to tropospheric or stratospheric dynamics. ...
