Working Memory Training in Amnestic and Non-amnestic Patients With Mild Cognitive Impairment: Preliminary Findings From Genotype Variants on Training Effects
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Working memory training (WMT) effects may be modulated by mild cognitive impairment (MCI) subtypes, and variations in APOE-epsilon (APOE-ε) and LMX1A genotypes. Sixty-one individuals (41 men/20 women, mean age 66 years) ... -
Working Towards a Common Transatlantic Approach for Evaluation of Exercise-Induced Laryngeal Obstruction

A worldwide survey on incidence, management, and prognosis of oesophageal fistula formation following atrial fibrillation catheter ablation: The POTTER-AF study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Aims Oesophageal fistula represents a rare but dreadful complication of atrial fibrillation catheter ablation. Data on its incidence, management, and outcome are sparse. Methods and results This international multicentre ... -
Worldwide trends in hypertension prevalence and progress in treatment and control from 1990 to 2019: a pooled analysis of 1201 population-representative studies with 104 million participants
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Hypertension can be detected at the primary health-care level and low-cost treatments can effectively control hypertension. We aimed to measure the prevalence of hypertension and progress in its detection, ... -
Worst lead ST deviation and resolution of ST elevation at one hour for prediction of myocardial salvage, infarct size, and microvascular obstruction in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background ECG changes after revascularization predicts improved outcome for patients with ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Worst lead residual (WLR) ST deviation and resolution of worst lead ST elevation (rST ... -
X chromosome associations with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and related phenotypes: an X chromosome-wide association study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background The association between genetic variants on the X chromosome to risk of COPD has not been fully explored. We hypothesize that the X chromosome harbors variants important in determining risk of COPD related ... -
Xpert MTB/RIF assay can be used on archived gastric aspirate and induced sputum samples for sensitive diagnosis of paediatric tuberculosis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-09-29)Background: Tuberculosis (TB) in children is neglected, mainly due to lack of sensitive diagnostic tools. Recently Xpert MTB/RIF assay has revolutionized the diagnostic field, but its usefulness in pediatric TB has not ... -
The Zebrafish Larva as a Model System for Myeloid Malignancies
(Doctoral thesis, 2024-02-23)Myeloid kreft er ein ukontrollert deling av dei myeloide stamcellene som finst i beinmergen. Døme på myeloid kreft er akutt myeloid leukemi (AML) og myelodysplastisk syndrom. Desse kreftformane er vanlegast hjå eldre ... -
Zebrafish Larvae as a Model Organism to Study Biotransformation
(Master thesis, 2023-05-22)The zebrafish larva is an increasingly used model organism in many fields of research, including drug development. Due to traits like their small size, rapid development, and high degree of genetic similarity with humans, ... -
Zebrafish Larvae as a Model to Study Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity
(Master thesis, 2020-06-30)Doxorubicin is one of the most versatile cytostatic drugs available and shows efficacy on most cancer forms. However, it also possesses the risk of cardiotoxicity that is hard to predict, can occur decades after treatment, ... -
β-blocker use and risk of all-cause mortality in patients with coronary heart disease: effect modification by serum vitamin A
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Aims Blockade of β-adrenoceptors reduces sympathetic nervous system activity and improves survival in patients with heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF); however, any improvement in ... -
β2-adrenergic receptor expression in patients receiving bevacizumab therapy for metastatic melanoma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was initially known as vascular permeability factor and identified as a driver of tumour angiogenesis. Recently, its role in supporting an immunosuppressive tumour ...
