Regional Differentiation and National Uniformity: Norwegian Elementary School Legislation in the Eighteenth and Early Nineteenth Century
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016)
Previous research on Norwegian educational reforms after 1814, the year when Norway became a constitutional state, has emphasized the conservatism of the elementary education acts of 1816 and 1827. Contrary to expectations for a constitutional state, these acts did not reflect a concern for fostering politically active citizens. Neither did they follow up the enlightenment idea of teaching secular ...
Estrogen receptors α and β and aromatase as independent predictors for prostate cancer outcome
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-09-09)
Androgens are considered important in normal prostate physiology and prostate cancer (PCa)
pathogenesis. However, androgen-targeted treatment preventing PCa recurrence is still lacking.
This indicates additional mediators contributing to cancer development. We sought to determine the
prognostic significance of estrogen receptors, ERα and -β, and the aromatase enzyme in PCa. Tissue
microarrays ...
The role of formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) in neuroblastoma tumorigenesis
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-07-18)
Background: Formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) is a G protein-coupled receptor mainly expressed by the cells of
myeloid origin, where it mediates the innate immune response to bacterial formylated peptides. High expression of
FPR1 has been detected in various cancers but the function of FPR1 in tumorigenesis is poorly understood.
Methods: Expression of FPR1 in neuroblastoma cell lines and primary ...
Effects of Constant Flow vs. Constant Pressure Perfusion on Fluid Filtration in Severe Hypothermic Isolated Blood-Perfused Rat Lungs
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-23)
Victims of severe accidental hypothermia are prone to fluid extravasation
but rarely develop lung edema. We hypothesize that combined hypothermia-induced
increase in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and a concomitant fall in cardiac
output protect the lungs against edema development. Our aim was to explore in
hypothermic-
isolated blood-perfused rat lungs whether perfusion at constant ...
Alcohol and suicide in the Nenets Autonomous Okrug and Arkhangelsk Oblast, Russia
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-01-23)
Background. High suicide rates in the Russian North are coupled with high alcohol consumption in the
described populations.
Objective. To investigate the potential role of alcohol consumption on suicides in the Nenets Autonomous
Okrug (NAO) in 2002 2012 and to compare this information with corresponding data from the neighboring
Arkhangelsk Oblast (AO).
Design. Retrospective population-based ...
Wheezes, crackles and rhonchi: simplifying description of lung sounds increases the agreement on theirclassification: a study of 12 physicians' classification of lung sounds from video recordings
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-04-28)
Background: The European Respiratory Society (ERS)
lung sounds repository contains 20 audiovisual recordings of children and adults. The present study aimed at determining the interobserver variation in the classification of sounds into detailed and broader categories of crackles and wheezes. <p>
Methods: Recordings from 10 children and 10 adults were classified into 10 predefined sounds by 12 ...
Major postoperative complications are associated with impaired long-term survival after gastro-esophageal and pancreatic cancer surgery: a complete national cohort study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-05-18)
Background: Some studies have reported an association between complications and impaired long-term survival after cancer surgery. We aimed to investigate how major complications are associated with overall survival after gastro-esophageal and pancreatic cancer surgery in a complete national cohort.
<br>
Methods: All esophageal-, gastric- and pancreatic resections performed for cancer in Norway ...
Long-term integrated telerehabilitation of COPD Patients: A multicentre randomised controlled trial (iTrain)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-08-22)
<i>Background</i>: Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is an effective intervention for the management of people
with chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, available resources are often limited, and many
patients bear with poor availability of programmes. Sustaining PR benefits and regular exercise
over the long term is difficult without any exercise maintenance strategy. In contrast ...
Coffee consumption and the risk of malignant melanoma in the Norwegian Women and Cancer (NOWAC) Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-07-29)
Background: Coffee contains biologically-active substances that suppress carcinogenesis in vivo, and coffee
consumption has been associated with a lower risk of malignant melanoma. We studied the impact of total
coffee consumption and of different brewing methods on the incidence of malignant melanoma in a prospective
cohort of Norwegian women.
<p>Methods: We had baseline information on total ...
Primary care emergency team training in situ means learning in real context
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-07-21)
<b>Objective:</b> The purpose of our study was to explore the local learning processes and to improve
in situ team training in the primary care emergency teams with a focus on interaction.<br>
<b>Design, setting and subjects:</b> As participating observers, we investigated locally organised trainings
of teams constituted ad hoc, involving nurses, paramedics and general practitioners, in rural
Norway. ...
