Acoustic telemetry predation sensors reveal the tribulations of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolts migrating through lakes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Smolt migration through lakes is hazardous, as the predation pressure can be extreme and the hydrology a great contrast to that of a riverine area. However, the mechanisms yielding these challenges have been scarcely ... -
Actigraphy assessment of motor activity and sleep in patients with alcohol withdrawal syndrome and the effects of intranasal oxytocin
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background and aims The alcohol withdrawal syndrome increases autonomic activation and stress in patients during detoxification, leading to alterations in motor activity and sleep irregularities. Intranasal oxytocin has ... -
An Actigraphy-Based Validation Study of the Sleep Disorder Inventory in the Nursing Home
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-03-13)Background: Disrupted sleep is common among nursing home patients with dementia and is associated with increased agitation, depression, and cognitive impairment. Detecting and treating sleep problems in this population are ... -
Actions on sustainable food production and consumption for the post-2020 global biodiversity framework
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Current food production and consumption trends are inconsistent with the Convention on Biological Diversity’s 2050 vision of living in harmony with nature. Here, we examine how, and under what conditions, the post-2020 ... -
Activated factor XI-antithrombin complex presenting as an independent predictor of 30-days mortality in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are associated with activated coagulation and microvascular fibrin deposition with subsequent multiorgan failure and adverse outcome. Objectives Activated ... -
Activation mechanism and activity of globupain, a thermostable C11 protease from the Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge hydrothermal system
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Deep-sea hydrothermal vents offer unique habitats for heat tolerant enzymes with potential new enzymatic properties. Here, we present the novel C11 protease globupain, which was prospected from a metagenome-assembled genome ... -
Activation-induced chromatin reorganization in neurons depends on HDAC1 activity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Spatial chromatin organization is crucial for transcriptional regulation and might be particularly important in neurons since they dramatically change their transcriptome in response to external stimuli. We show that ... -
Activity monitoring and patient-reported outcome measures in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome patients
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-19)Introduction: Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a disease with no validated specific and sensitive biomarker, and no standard approved treatment. In this observational study with no intervention, ... -
Acute effects of gas supersaturation on Atlantic salmon smolt in two Norwegian rivers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Total dissolved gas (TDG) supersaturation downstream of hydropower plants may cause gas bubble disease (GBD) and harmful effects in fish. Little is known about tolerance levels of TDG supersaturation on Atlantic salmon ... -
Acute effects of whey protein on energy intake, appetite and gastric emptying in younger and older, obese men
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Obesity is becoming more prevalent in older people. A management strategy in obese, young adults is to increase dietary protein relative to other macronutrients. It is not clear if this is effective in obese, ... -
Acute exacerbations of COPD and risk of lung cancer in COPD patients with and without a history of asthma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Rationale There is limited knowledge on the effect of acute exacerbations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) on lung cancer risk in COPD patients with and without a history of asthma. This study aims to ... -
Acute Intermittent Porphyria: An Overview of Therapy Developments and Future Perspectives Focusing on Stabilisation of HMBS and Proteostasis Regulators
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is an autosomal dominant inherited disease with low clinical penetrance, caused by mutations in the hydroxymethylbilane synthase (HMBS) gene, which encodes the third enzyme in the haem ... -
