Machine learning based on biomarker profiles identifies distinct subgroups of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Aims The lack of effective therapies for patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is often ascribed to the heterogeneity of patients with HFpEF. We aimed to identify distinct pathophysiologic ... -
Macular hole – surgical treatment, epidemiology, and risk of bilateral disease
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-12-08)Bakgrunn: Makulahull er en tilstand som hemmer sentralsynet og gir redusert livskvalitet. Personer som har fått et makulahull i et øye, har økt risiko for å utvikle makulahull også i det andre øyet. De siste 30 årene har ... -
