(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Aim The Norwegian Action Plan for a Healthier Diet (2017–2021) set the target that 25% of infants should be exclusively breastfed for 6 months by 2022. Our aim was to determine trends in the prevalence and duration of ... -
Triaging HPV-Positive Cervical Samples with p16 and Ki-67 Dual Stained Cytology within an Organized Screening Program—A Prospective Observational Study from Western Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The implementation of high-risk human papillomavirus testing (hrHPV testing) as a screening method in substitute for cytology has evoked the need for more sensitive and less objective tests for the triage of HPV-positive ... -
TRIGEN INTERTAN Intramedullary Nail Versus Sliding Hip Screw
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-02-06)Background: Both intramedullary nails and sliding hip screws are used with good results in the treatment of intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures. The aim of our study was to assess whether use of the TRIGEN ... -
Trochanteric stabilizing plate in the treatment of trochanteric fractures: a scoping review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background and purpose — The trochanteric stabilizing plate (TSP) may be used as an adjunct to a sliding hip screw (SHS) in the treatment of trochanteric fractures to increase construct stability. We performed a scoping ... -
Tumor budding score predicts lymph node status in oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma and should be included in the pathology report
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background The majority of oral cavity cancers arise in the oral tongue. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of tumor budding in oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma, both as a separate variable and ... -
Tumor HPV status, level of regulatory T cells and macrophage infiltration predict up to 20-year non-disease-specific survival in oropharynx squamous cell carcinoma patients
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Oropharynx squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) is of special interest because human papilloma virus (HPV) and/or smoking cause this disease. Influxes of inflammatory cells into such tumors are known to vary with prognoses. ... -
Tumor infiltration levels of CD3, Foxp3 (+) lymphocytes and CD68 macrophages at diagnosis predict 5-year disease-specific survival in patients with oropharynx squamous cell carcinoma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide. Oropharyngeal (OP) cancers are of special interest because of possible underlying HPV infection which is tied to prognosis. Influxes of inflammatory ... -
Tumor necrosis is associated with increased alphav beta3 integrin expression and poor prognosis in nodular cutaneous melanomas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-12-05)Background: Tumor necrosis and apoptotic activity are considered important in cancer progression, but these features have not been much studied in melanomas. Our hypothesis was that rapid growth in cutaneous melanomas of ... -
Tumor-associated lymphocytes and macrophages are related to stromal elastosis and vascular invasion in breast cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The tumor microenvironment plays a critical role in breast cancer progression. Here, we investigated tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and associations with macrophage numbers, tumor stromal elastosis, vascular invasion, ... -
Tumour texture features from preoperative CT predict high-risk disease in endometrial cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021-01)Background: To enable more individualised treatment of endometrial cancer, improved methods for preoperative tumour characterization are warranted. Texture analysis is a method for quantification of heterogeneity in images, ... -
