Dispensations of benzodiazepines, zhypnotics, and gabapentinoids to patients receiving opioid agonist therapy; a prospective cohort study in Norway from 2013 to 2017
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Dispensations of benzodiazepines, z-hypnotics, and gabapentinoids to patients on opioid agonist therapy (OAT) are common and have pros and cons. The objectives of the current study are to define the dispensation ... -
Dispersal syndromes are poorly associated with climatic niche differences in the Azorean seed plants
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Aim Environmental niche tracking is linked to the species ability to disperse. While well investigated on large spatial scales, dispersal constraints also influence small-scale processes and may explain the difference ... -
Dispersive Estimates for Full Dispersion KP Equations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We prove several dispersive estimates for the linear part of the Full Dispersion Kadomtsev–Petviashvili introduced by David Lannes to overcome some shortcomings of the classical Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations. The proof ... -
Displacement/Length Scaling Relationships for Normal Faults; a Review, Critique, and Revised Compilation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The relationship between normal fault displacement (D) and length (L) varies due to numerous factors, including fault size, maturity, basin tectonic history, and host rock lithology. Understanding how fault D and L relate ... -
Displacing Conflicting Goals in Planning for Sustainability? Insights from Three Norwegian Cities
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Sustainable transformation is hampered by conflicting goals. Here we examine how goal conflicts are handled in planning practice, focusing on processes around municipal climate and sustainability governance. We investigate ... -
Dissecting peripheral protein-membrane interfaces
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-14)Peripheral membrane proteins (PMPs) include a wide variety of proteins that have in common to bind transiently to the chemically complex interfacial region of membranes through their interfacial binding site (IBS). In ... -
Dissecting Public Opinion on Regional Authority: Four Types of Regionalists Based on Citizens’ Preferences for Self-Rule and Shared Rule
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Although regional governments play vital roles in most political systems, citizens’ perceptions regarding regional authority are only rarely studied. Relying on the International Constitutional Values Survey held among ... -
Dissecting the Role of AXL in Cancer Immune Escape and Resistance to Immune Checkpoint Inhibition
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The development and implementation of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICI) in clinical oncology have significantly improved the survival of a subset of cancer patients with metastatic disease previously considered uniformly ... -
Dissecting the Shared Genetic Architecture of Suicide Attempt, Psychiatric Disorders, and Known Risk Factors
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Suicide is a leading cause of death worldwide, and nonfatal suicide attempts, which occur far more frequently, are a major source of disability and social and economic burden. Both have substantial genetic ... -
Dissecting the shared genetic basis of migraine and mental disorders using novel statistical tools
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Migraine is three times more prevalent in people with bipolar disorder or depression. The relationship between schizophrenia and migraine is less certain although glutamatergic and serotonergic neurotransmission are ... -
The dissolution of a miscible drop rising or falling in another liquid at low Reynolds number
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)“A basic and basically unsolved problem in fluid dynamics is to determine the evolution of rising bubbles and falling drops of one miscible liquid in another” [D. D. Joseph and Y. Y. Renardy, Fundamentals of Two-Fluid ... -
Distal tephra reveal new MIS 5e Kos eruptions: Implications for the chronology and volcanic evolution histories in the Eastern Mediterranean region
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The Kos Plateau Tuff (KPT), was an enormous caldera forming eruption originating from a vent within the Kos/Nisyros/Yali volcanic complex, occurring at 161 ka. It is the largest recognised Late Quaternary eruption in the ... -
