High birth weight and perinatal mortality among siblings. A register based study in Norway, 1967-2011
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-02-28)Background: Perinatal mortality according to birth weight has an inverse J-pattern. Our aim was to estimate the influence of familial factors on this pattern, applying a cohort sibling design. We focused on excess mortality ... -
High BMI is significantly associated with positive progesterone receptor status and clinico-pathological markers for non-aggressive disease in endometrial cancer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011)Background: Endometrial cancer incidence is increasing in industrialised countries. High body mass index (BMI, kg m−2) is associated with higher risk for disease. We wanted to investigate if BMI is related to clinico-pathological ... -
The high burden of infant deaths in rural Burkina Faso: a prospective community-based cohort study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-09-05)Background: Infant mortality rates (IMR) remain high in many sub-Saharan African countries, especially in rural settings where access to health services may be limited. Studies in such communities can provide relevant data ... -
High cardiac background activity limits 99mTc-MIBI radioguided surgery in aortopulmonary window parathyroid adenomas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-04-23)Background: Radioguided surgery using 99m-Technetium-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) has been recommended for the surgical treatment of mediastinal parathyroid adenomas. However, high myocardial 99mTc-MIBI uptake ... -
High circulating levels of the homeostatic chemokines CCL19 and CCL21 predict mortality and disease severity in Covid-19
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Immune dysregulation is a major factor in the development of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The homeostatic chemokines CCL19 and CCL21 have been implicated as mediators of tissue inflammation, but ... -
A high confidence, manually validated human blood plasma protein reference set
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-09-15)Background: The immense diagnostic potential of human plasma has prompted great interest and effort in cataloging its contents, exemplified by the Human Proteome Organization (HUPO) Plasma Proteome Project (PPP) pilot ... -
High Constitutive Cytokine Release by Primary Human Acute Myeloid Leukemia Cells Is Associated with a Specific Intercellular Communication Phenotype
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-07-04)Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease, and this heterogeneity includes the capacity of constitutive release of extracellular soluble mediators by AML cells. We investigated whether this capacity is ... -
High degree of heterogeneity of PD-L1 and PD-1 from primary to metastatic endometrial cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Objective PD-L1 and PD-1 are predictive markers for immunotherapy and increasingly relevant in endometrial cancer. The reported fraction of positive primary tumors has been inconsistent. We investigated the expression of ... -
High expression of miR‑17‑5p in tumor epithelium is a predictor for poor prognosis for prostate cancer patients
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)MicroRNAs (miRs) are small non-coding RNA molecules, which are involved in the development of various malignancies, including prostate cancer (PCa). miR-17-5p is considered the most prominent member of the miR-17-92 cluster, ... -
