Volume blood flow-based indices of fetal brain sparing in the second half of pregnancy: A longitudinal study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Introduction Cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) and umbilicocerebral ratio (UCR) are clinically used as a measure of fetal brain sparing. These are calculated as the ratios between the pulsatility indices (PIs) of middle cerebral ... -
Volumetric parameters from [18F]FDG PET/CT predicts survival in patients with high-grade gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)A positive fluorine-18 labelled 2-deoxy-2-fluoroglucose ([18F]FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has been associated with more aggressive disease and less differentiated neuroendocrine neoplasms ... -
The vulnerable child in an obesogenic environment : Associations between sociodemographic and behavioural factors and weight-related anthropometric variables in Norwegian children
(Doctoral thesis, 2020-05-08)Background: Childhood overweight and obesity represent important challenges. As treatment is difficult, the attention given to prevention is warranted. To identify children at risk of overweight and obesity, knowledge about ... -

Weight gain during treatment course of allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in patients with hematological malignancies affects treatment outcome
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background aims Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is an effective treatment for patients with hematological malignancies; however, allo-HSCT does not come without the cost of treatment-related ... -
Weight loss and BMI criteria in GLIM's definition of malnutrition is associated with postoperative complications following abdominal resections - Results from a National Quality Registry
(Journal article, 2020)Background & aims: Although malnutrition is thought to be common among patients with intraabdominal diseases and is recognized as a risk factor for postoperative complications, diagnostic criteria for malnutrition have not ... -
Weight of salivary gland ultrasonography compared to other items of the 2016 ACR/EULAR classification criteria for Primary Sjögren's syndrome
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objective: Major salivary gland ultrasonography (SGUS) is widely used for the diagnosis of primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS). Our objective was to assess the contribution of SGUS compared to other items of the 2016 ACR/EULAR ... -
What determines who gets cardiac resynchronization therapy in Europe? A comparison between ESC-HF-LT registry, SwedeHF registry, and ESC-CRT Survey II
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Aims Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is effective in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and dyssynchrony but is underutilized. In a cohort study, we identified clinical, organizational, and ... -
What is the best preoperative imaging for endometrial cancer?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-04)Although endometrial cancer is surgicopathologically staged, preoperative imaging is recommended for diagnostic work-up to tailor surgery and adjuvant treatment. For preoperative staging, imaging by transvaginal ultrasound ... -
White Matter Hyperintensities and the Course of Depressive Symptoms in Elderly People with Mild Dementia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012)Objectives: To explore the relationship between white matter hyperintensities (WMH) and the prevalence and course of depressive symptoms in mild Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Lewy body dementia. Design: This is a prospective ... -
WHO multicentre study for the development of growth standards from fetal life to childhood: the fetal component
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-05-02)Background: In 2006 WHO presented the infant and child growth charts suggested for universal application. However, major determinants for perinatal outcomes and postnatal growth are laid down during antenatal development. ... -
A whole blood based resuscitation strategy in civilian medical services: Experience from a Norwegian hospital in the period 2017–2020
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Civilian and military guidelines recommend early balanced transfusion to patients with life-threatening bleeding. Low titer group O whole blood was introduced as the primary blood product for resuscitation of ... -
Whole blood RNA sequencing identifies transcriptional differences between primary sclerosing cholangitis and ulcerative colitis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Background & Aims: Genetic and microbiome studies across patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and ulcerative colitis (UC) have indicated that UC in PSC is a separate disease entity to primary UC, but expression ... -
Whole genome sequencing of clinical isolates of Giardia lamblia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-10-29)Clinical isolates from protozoan parasites such as Giardia lamblia are at present practically impossible to culture. By using simple cyst purification methods, we show that Giardia whole genome sequencing of clinical stool ... -
