Gender Differences in Psychiatric Comorbidity: Population-based study of 40,000 Adults with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-12-21)OBJECTIVE: We aimed at determining whether gender modified associations between ADHD and psychiatric comorbidities in adults. METHOD: We identified adults with ADHD by linking Norwegian national registries and compared ... -
Gender inequalities in occupational health related to the unequal distribution of working and employment conditions: a systematic review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-08-05)Introduction: Gender inequalities exist in work life, but little is known about their presence in relation to factors examined in occupation health settings. The aim of this study was to identify and summarize the working ... -
Gender specific early treatment for women with alcohol addiction (EWA): Impact on work related outcomes. A 25-year registry follow-up of a randomized controlled trial (RCT)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background: Alcohol contributes to substantial economic burden, at both individual and community levels. We investigated the effect of the Early treatment for Women with Alcohol Addiction (EWA) treatment program on sickness ... -
Gender-related differences in cardiometabolic risk factors and lifestyle behaviors in treatment-seeking adolescents with severe obesity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-02-14)Background: Obesity during adolescence is associated with cardiovascular mortality in adulthood. The adverse obesity-related cardiometabolic risk profile is already observed in adolescence. We aimed to examine possible ... -
Gendered perceptions on infant feeding in Eastern Uganda: continued need for exclusive breastfeeding support
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-10-26)Background: In resource-poor settings, HIV positive mothers are recommended to choose between ‘Exclusive breastfeeding’ (EBF) or ‘Exclusive replacement feeding’ (ERF). Acceptability, Feasibility, Affordability, Sustainability ... -
Gene expression alterations in salivary gland epithelia of Sjögren’s syndrome patients are associated with clinical and histopathological manifestations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a complex autoimmune disease associated with lymphocytic infiltration and secretory dysfunction of salivary and lacrimal glands. Although the etiology of SS remains unclear, evidence suggests ... -
Gene Expression Analysis in gla-Mutant Zebrafish Reveals Enhanced Ca2+ Signaling Similar to Fabry Disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked inborn metabolic disorder due to partial or complete lysosomal α-galactosidase A deficiency. FD is characterized by progressive renal insufficiency and cardio- and cerebrovascular involvement. ... -
Gene expression in the rat brain: High similarity but unique differences between frontomedial-, temporal- and occipital cortex
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-01-26)Background: The six-layered neocortex of the mammalian brain may appear largely homologous, but is in reality a modular structure of anatomically and functionally distinct areas. However, global gene expression seems to ... -
Gene expression in tumor cells and stroma in dsRed 4T1 tumors in eGFP-expressing mice with and without enhanced oxygenation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-01-17)Background The tumor microenvironment is pivotal in tumor progression. Thus, we aimed to develop a mammary tumor model to elucidate molecular characteristics in the stroma versus the tumor cell compartment by global gene ... -
Gene expression profile of oral squamous cell carcinomas from Sri Lankan betel quid users
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2007-11)Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the major health problems in Sri Lanka and the disease is associated with the habit of Betel Quid (BQ) chewing. Using 35k oligo microarrays, we analyzed the gene expression ... -
Gene expression profiles in rat brain disclose CNS signature genes and regional patterns of functional specialisation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2007-04-04)Background: The mammalian brain is divided into distinct regions with structural and neurophysiological differences. As a result, gene expression is likely to vary between regions in relation to their cellular composition ... -
Gene expression profiles of CMS2-epithelial/canonical colorectal cancers are largely driven by DNA copy number gains
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-07-15)About 80% of colorectal cancers (CRCs) have chromosomal instability, which is an integral part of aggressive malignancy development, but the importance of specific copy number aberrations (CNAs) in modulating gene expression, ... -
Gene expression profiling of meningiomas: current status after a decade of microarray-based transcriptomic studies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-01-14)Purpose This article provides a review of the transcriptomic expression profiling studies that have been performed on meningiomas so far. We discuss some future prospects and challenges ahead in the field of gene expression ... -
Gene expression response in peripheral blood cells of petroleum workers exposed to sub-ppm benzene levels
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-10-27)Altered gene expression in pathways relevant to leukaemogenesis, as well as reduced levels of circulating lymphocytes, have been reported in workers that were exposed to benzene concentrations below 1 ppm. In this study, ... -
Gene Methylation and Silencing of WIF1 Is a Frequent Genetic Abnormality in Mantle Cell Lymphoma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We have previously shown that the Wnt canonical pathway (WCP) is constitutively active in most cases of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Here, we aimed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying this biochemical deregulation. We ... -
A gene signature identifying CIN3 regression and cervical cancer survival
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-16)The purpose of this study was to establish a gene signature that may predict CIN3 regression and that may aid in selecting patients who may safely refrain from conization. Oncomine mRNA data including 398 immune-related ... -
