Influence of Annular Dynamics and Material Behavior in Finite Element Analysis of Barlow’s Mitral Valve Disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Barlow’s disease affects the entire mitral valve apparatus, by altering several of the fundamental mechanisms in the mitral valve which ensures unidirectional blood flow between the left atrium and the left ventricle. In ... -
The influence of immigrant background and parental education on overweight and obesity in 8-year-old children in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Little is known about the prevalence of overweight/obesity and socio-economic position (SEP) in children with immigrant background in Scandinavia. The purpose of this study is to examine the prevalence of ... -
Influence of MDM2 SNP309 and SNP285 status on the risk of cancer in the breast, prostate, lung and colon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-07)MDM2 is a key regulator of the p53 tumor suppressor protein and is overexpressed in many human cancers. Two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in the MDM2 intronic promoter (P2) have been found to exert biological ... -
Influence of obesity on left ventricular adaptation, grading and outcome in aortic valve stenosis
(Doctoral thesis, 2014-09-29)Background/Aim: Obesity is associated with hemodynamic changes characterized by volume overload adding to the progressive pressure overload induced by aortic valve stenosis (AS). This thesis investigated whether concomitant ... -
Influence of p53 isoform expression on survival in high-grade serous ovarian cancers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03-27)High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is characterised by alterations in the p53 pathway. The expression levels of p53 isoforms have been shown to be associated with patient survival in several cancers. This study ... -
The influence of region of interest width in fetal 2D-speckle tracking echocardiography late in pregnancy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Speckle tracking echocardiography is a promising method for assessment of myocardial function in fetal and neonatal hearts, but further studies are necessary to validate and optimize the settings for use in fetal cardiology. ... -

Inhibiting notch activity in breast cancer stem cells by glucose functionalized nanoparticles carrying γ-secretase inhibitors
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-05)Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a challenge in cancer treatment due to their therapy resistance. We demonstrated that enhanced Notch signaling in breast cancer promotes self-renewal of CSCs that display high glycolytic activity ... -
Inhibition of CDK9 as a therapeutic strategy for inflammatory arthritis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-08-11)Rheumatoid arthritis is characterised by synovial inflammation and proliferation of fibroblast-like synoviocytes. The induction of apoptosis has long been proposed as a target for proliferative autoimmune diseases, and has ... -
Inhibition of NF-κB signaling alters acute myelogenous leukemia cell transcriptomics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) is an aggressive hematological malignancy. The pathophysiology of the disease depends on cytogenetic abnormalities, gene mutations, aberrant gene expressions, and altered epigenetic regulation. ... -
