Simultaneous Resection of Primary Colorectal Cancer and Synchronous Liver Metastases: Contemporary Practice, Evidence and Knowledge Gaps
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The timing of surgical resection of synchronous liver metastases from colorectal cancer has been debated for decades. Several strategies have been proposed, but high-level evidence remains scarce. Simultaneous resection ... -
Base excision repair causes age-dependent accumulation of single-stranded DNA breaks that contribute to Parkinson disease pathology
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Aging, genomic stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction are risk factors for neurodegenerative pathologies, such as Parkinson disease (PD). Although genomic instability is associated with aging and mitochondrial impairment, ... -
Cd11c‐cd8 spatial cross presentation: A novel approach to link immune surveillance and patient survival in soft tissue sarcoma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Checkpoint inhibitors are slowly being introduced in the care of specific sarcoma subtypes such as undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, alveolar soft part sarcoma, and angiosarcoma even though formal indication is lacking. ... -
Short and long-term effects of single and multiple sessions of electroconvulsive therapy on brain gray matter volumes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has been shown to induce broadly distributed cortical and subcortical volume increases, more prominently in the amygdala and the hippocampus. Structural changes after one ECT ... -
Is external hydrocephalus a possible differential diagnosis when child abuse is suspected?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Criteria for diagnosing abusive head trauma (AHT) or “shaken baby syndrome” are not well defined; consequently, these conditions might be diagnosed on failing premises. Methods: The authors have collected a ... -
NSAID use is not associated with Parkinson's disease incidence: A Norwegian Prescription Database study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-07)Objective: Whether use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) reduce the risk of incident Parkinson’s disease (PD) remains unresolved. Here, we employed the Norwegian Prescription Database to examine whether NSAID ... -
