Taming Graphs with No Large Creatures and Skinny Ladders
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)We confirm a conjecture of Gartland and Lokshtanov [arXiv:2007.08761]: if for a hereditary graph class 𝒢 there exists a constant k such that no member of 𝒢 contains a k-creature as an induced subgraph or a k-skinny-ladder ... -
Taphonomy of an excavated striped hyena (Hyaena hyaena) den in Arabia: implications for paleoecology and prehistory
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Studies of modern carnivore accumulations of bone (i.e., neo-taphonomy) are crucial for interpreting fossil accumulations in the archaeological and paleontological records. Yet, studies in arid regions have been limited ... -
Target Values and Daytime Variation of Bone Turnover Markers in Monitoring Osteoporosis Treatment After Fractures
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The serum bone turnover markers (BTM) procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) and C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type 1 collagen (CTX) are recommended for monitoring adherence and response of antiresorptive ... -
Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing of Cancer-Related Genes in a Norwegian Patient Cohort With Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Reveals Novel Actionable Mutations and Correlations With Pathological Parameters
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) is increasingly applied in clinical oncology to advance personalized treatment. Despite success in many other tumour types, use of targeted NGS panels for assisting ... -
Targeted proteomics in a population-based study identifies serum PECAM-1 and TRIM21 as inflammation markers for periodontitis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Objectives Periodontitis (PD) can cause systematic inflammation and is associated with various metabolic processes in the body. However, robust serum markers for these relationships are still lacking. This study aims ... -
Targeted risk assessment of mercury exposure of recreational fishers: Are nephrops fishers in Norway at risk?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Recreational fishers often consume their catch, which may expose them to environmental contaminants. However, targeted risk assessment for exceeding the tolerable weekly intake (TWI) of a specific contaminant is often ... -
Targeting NAD+ in translational research to relieve diseases and conditions of metabolic stress and ageing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) plays a fundamental role in life and health through the regulation of energy biogenesis, redox homeostasis, cell metabolism, and the arbitration of cell survival via linkages to ... -
Targeting performance and user-friendliness: GPU-accelerated finite element computation with automated code generation in FEniCS
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)This paper studies the use of automated code generation to provide user-friendly GPU acceleration for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) with finite element methods. By extending the FEniCS framework and its ... -
