Brain amyloid and vascular risk are related to distinct white matter hyperintensity patterns
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)White matter hyperintensities (WMHs) are associated with vascular risk and Alzheimer’s disease. In this study, we examined relations between WMH load and distribution, amyloid pathology and vascular risk in 339 controls ... -
Brain atrophy and clinical characteristics predicting SDMT performance in multiple sclerosis: A 10-year follow-up study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Objectives To identify Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), clinical and demographic biomarkers predictive of worsening information processing speed (IPS) as measured by Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT). Methods Demographic, ... -
Brain atrophy and employment in multiple sclerosis patients: a 10-year follow-up study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background: Multiple sclerosis is often associated with unemployment. The contribution of grey matter atrophy to unemployment is unclear. Objectives: To identify magnetic resonance imaging biomarkers of grey matter and ... -
Brain changes induced by electroconvulsive therapy are broadly distributed
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-03-01)Background Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is associated with volumetric enlargements of corticolimbic brain regions. However, the pattern of whole-brain structural alterations following ECT remains unresolved. Here, we ... -
Brain lateralization, attention and cognitive control in presistent Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
(Doctoral thesis, 2011-12-09)Objective: Divergent brain lateralization and dysfunctional attention and cognitive control may be part of the pathophysiology of ADHD, with the corpus callosum (CC) and the anterior cortex cinguli (ACC) as important ... -
“Brain MR spectroscopy in autism spectrum disorder—the GABA excitatory/inhibitory imbalance theory revisited”
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-06-22)Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) from voxels placed in the left anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) was measured from 14 boys with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and 24 gender and age-matched typically developing (TD) ... -
Brain MRI changes in Parkinson’s disease A cross sectional study
(Doctoral thesis, 2007-11-09)Background: Cognitive impairment is common even in newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease (PD), and characteristically involves executive and visuospatial functions with deficits also in the memory domain. There is an increased ... -
Breast cancer stromal elastosis is associated with mammography screening detection, low Ki67 expression and favourable prognosis in a population-based study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-12-19)Background: Mammography screen-detected breast cancers have a better prognosis than predicted from established prognostic markers. A search for additional features that are characteristic for these tumours and their prognosis ... -
Breast-Specific Molecular Clocks Comprised of ELF5 Expression and Promoter Methylation Identify Individuals Susceptible to Cancer Initiation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)A robust breast cancer prevention strategy requires risk assessment biomarkers for early detection. We show that expression of ELF5, a transcription factor critical for normal mammary development, is downregulated in mammary ... -
Bridging the Gap for Children With Compound Health Challenges: An Intervention Protocol
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: During the last decades, there is a major shift in the panorama of diseases in children and adolescents. More children are referred to the specialized health care services due to less specific symptoms and more ... -

C- reactive protein in schizophrenia-spectrum disorders; relationship to cognitive functions and medications
(Doctoral thesis, 2019-12-05)Background: Schizophrenia spectrum disorders are severe mental illnesses characterized by psychotic symptoms, cognitive dysfunction and functional decline. Cognitive impairments have been recognized as core features of ... -
C77G in PTPRC (CD45) is no risk allele for ovarian cancer, but associated with less aggressive disease
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-07-31)The pan lymphocyte marker CD45 exists in various isoforms arising from alternative splicing of the exons 4, 5 and 6. While naïve T cells express CD45RA translated from an mRNA containing exon 4, exons 4–6 are spliced out ... -
Can bone apposition predict the retention force of a femoral stem? An experimental weight-bearing hip-implant model in goats
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-04-28)Background: The increasing incidence of prosthesis revision surgery in the Western world has led to an increased focus on the capacity for stem removal. We previously reported on a femoral stem implanted in goats with an ... -
Can the cardiovascular family history reported by our patients be trusted? The Norwegian Stroke in the Young Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-01)Background and purpose: Family history (FH) is used as a marker for inherited risk. Using FH for this purpose requires the FH to reflect true disease in the family. The aim was to analyse the concordance between young and ... -
