Capacitance measurements of exocytosis from AII amacrine cells in retinal slices
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2025)During neuronal synaptic transmission, the exocytotic release of neurotransmitters from synaptic vesicles in the presynaptic neuron evokes a change in conductance for one or more types of ligand-gated ion channels in the ... -
Accelerated Sarcopenia Phenotype in the DJ-1/Park7-Knockout Zebrafish
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Age-dependent loss of muscle mass and function is associated with oxidative stress. DJ-1/Park7 acts as an antioxidant through multiple signalling pathways. DJ-1-knockout zebrafish show a decline in swimming performance and ... -
Iodine nutrition in Community-dwelling Older Persons from Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Background: Older persons are vulnerable to malnutrition and inadequate micronutrient intake, including iodine deficiency. Objectives: To assess urinary iodine concentration (UIC) and dietary iodine intake in a group of ... -
Rare copy number variation in autoimmune Addison’s disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-18)Autoimmune Addison’s disease (AAD) is a rare but life-threatening endocrine disorder caused by an autoimmune destruction of the adrenal cortex. A previous genome-wide association study (GWAS) has shown that common variants ... -
Fishing further inland? The role of the transition to agriculture on fishing practices in the Soconusco region, Mexico
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)In the Soconusco region of Mexico, the abundance of larger-bodied, carnivorous fish decreased relative to smaller-bodied, omnivorous/herbivorous fish between the terminal Late Archaic (4700–4000 BP [2700–2000 BCE]) and ... -
Forteljingar om utdanningssystemet og førestillinga om ein norsk fredstradisjon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Denne artikkelen undersøkjer i kva grad og på kva måte førestillinga om ein norsk fredstradisjon kan lesast ut av ulike engelskspråklege publikasjonar om det norske utdanningssystemet frå 1940-åra fram til slutten av ... -
Cuts in Graphs with Matroid Constraints
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Vertex (s, t)-Cut and Vertex Multiway Cut are two fundamental graph separation problems in algorithmic graph theory. We study matroidal generalizations of these problems, where in addition to the usual input, we are given ... -
Tooth in the spotlight: exploring the integration of archaeological and genetic data to build multidisciplinary narratives of the Past
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The article addresses the challenges posed by the interdisciplinary collaboration that led to the recent Nature article presenting results of the extraction of ancient human DNA from a perforated deer tooth found in Denisova ... -
Hybrid k-Clustering: Blending k-Median and k-Center
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)We propose a novel clustering model encompassing two well-known clustering models: k-center clustering and k-median clustering. In the Hybrid k-Clustering problem, given a set P of points in ℝ^d, an integer k, and a ... -
Norse Whetstones in Slavic Areas - Indicators of Long-Distance Networks During the Viking Age and the Middle Ages
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)SCANDINAVIAN ARTEFACTS FROM THE VIKING AGE ONWARDS are found in Slavic areas, suggesting interactions between Slavs and Scandinavians. In this paper, whetstones from present-day Norway are regarded as a proxy for this ... -
Longest Cycle above Erdős–Gallai Bound
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)In 1959, Erdős and Gallai proved that every graph \(G\) with average vertex degree \({\sf ad}(G)\geq 2\) contains a cycle of length at least \({\sf ad}(G)\). We provide an algorithm that for \(k\geq 0\), in time ... -
Synthetic ethnography: Field devices for the qualitative study of generative models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Advancements in generative artificial intelligence have led to a rapid proliferation of machine learning models capable of synthesizing text, images, sounds, and other kinds of content. While the increasing realism of ... -
Using polygenic scores in combination with symptom rating scales to identify attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Background The inclusion of biomarkers could improve diagnostic accuracy of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). One potential biomarker is the ADHD polygenic score (PGS), a measure of genetic liability for ... -
Assessment of Developmental Prosopagnosia in an Individual with Tourette Syndrome and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: A Case Report
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2025)Background/Objectives: Prosopagnosia is the inability to recognize people by their faces. Developmental prosopagnosia is the hereditary or congenital variant of the condition. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the ... -
Stability in Graphs with Matroid Constraints
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)We study the following INDEPENDENT STABLE SET problem. Let G be an undirected graph and ℳ = (V(G), ℐ) be a matroid whose elements are the vertices of G. For an integer k ≥ 1, the task is to decide whether G contains a set ... -
Effects on HbA1c of referral of type 2 diabetes patients to secondary care
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Aim: To study trajectories of HbA1c in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients referred to diabetes outpatient clinics (DOCs), and to explore characteristics of referrals and patient pathways in patients treated in DOCs. Methods: ... -
Computing Tree Decompositions with Small Independence Number
