Coping with worry while waiting for diagnostic results: a qualitative study of the experiences of pregnant couples following a high-risk prenatal screening result
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-10-21)
<b>Background: </b>It is well documented that pregnant women experience increased worry and uncertainty following a
high-risk prenatal screening result. While waiting for diagnostic results this worry continues to linger. It has been
suggested that high-risk women put the pregnancy mentally ‘on hold’ during this period, however, not enough is
known about how high-risk women and their partners ...
Self-Reported Food Hypersensitivity: Prevalence, Characteristics, and Comorbidities in the Norwegian Women and Cancer Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-16)
<b>Background:</b>
This study aims to investigate the prevalence of self-reported food hypersensitivity, (SFH),
the characteristics of women with SFH, and whether SFH is associated with multiple health
complaints among the participants of the Norwegian Women and Cancer study (NOWAC).<br>
<b>Methods:</b>
We conducted a cross-sectional study among 64,316 women aged 41–76 years. The
women were ...
Impact of referral templates on patient experience of the referral and care process: A cluster randomised trial
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-10-24)
Objectives: To evaluate if a referral intervention
improves the patient experience of the referral and treatment process.
<p>Setting: Interface between 14 primary care surgeries and a district general hospital.
<p>Participants: The 14 general practitioner (GP) surgeries (7 intervention, 7 control) in the area
around the University Hospital of North Norway Harstad were randomised and all completed ...
Transcranial direct current stimulation as a memory enhancer in patients with Alzheimer’s disease: a randomized, placebo-controlled trial
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-03-23)
<p><i>Background:</i> The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on verbal memory function in patients with Alzheimer’s disease.
<p><i>Methods:</i> We conducted a randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial in which tDCS was applied in six 30-minute sessions for 10 days. tDCS was delivered to the left temporal cortex with 2-mA intensity. ...
Evaluation of a trauma team activation protocol revision: A prospective cohort study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-08-25)
<b>Background:</b> Correct triage based on prehospital information contributes to a better outcome for potentially
seriously injured patients. In 2011 we changed the trauma team activation (TTA) criteria in our center in order to
improve the high over- and undertriage properties of the protocol. Five criteria that were unable to predict severe
injury were removed. In the present study, we evaluated ...
Fluctuations in electron cyclotron resonance plasma in a divergent magnetic field
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-02)
The dependence of fluctuations on electron-neutral collision frequency (V<sub>en</sub>) and the radial location is investigated in an electron cyclotron resonance plasma in a divergent magnetic field region for a set of magnetic fields. Results indicate that the fluctuations depend strongly on the collision frequency. At lower magnetic fields and V<sub>en</sub>, the fluctuation levels are small and ...
Global warming projections derived from an observation-based minimal model
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-01-29)
A simple conceptual model for the global mean surface temperature (GMST) response to CO2 emissions
is presented and analysed. It consists of linear long-memory models for the GMST anomaly response 1T
to radiative forcing and the atmospheric CO2-concentration response 1C to emission rate. The responses are
connected by the standard logarithmic relation between CO2 concentration and its radiative ...
Differential Recall Bias, Intermediate Confounding, and Mediation Analysis in Life Course Epidemiology: An Analytic Framework with Empirical Example
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-11-23)
The mechanisms by which childhood socioeconomic status (CSES) affects adult
mental health, general health, and well-being are not clear. Moreover, the analytical assumptions
employed when assessing mediation in social and psychiatric epidemiology are rarely explained. The
aim of this paper was to explain the intermediate confounding assumption, and to quantify
differential recall bias in the ...
Ignora la copia: sobre el sincretismo parcial entre 'ser' e 'ir'
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-01)
This article proposes a structural explanation of the fact that in the perfective form, the verb ser is identical to ir. It is argued that internally ir is built over the verb ser, and the element that distinguishes them semantically displaces to a high position, in such a way that the lower copy left behind it is ignored for the purposes of morphophonological materialisation. ...
Comment on "Scaling regimes and linear/nonlinear responses of last millennium climate to volcanic and solar forcing" by S. Lovejoy and C. Varotsos (2016)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-07-13)
Lovejoy and Varotsos (2016) (L&V) analyse the temperature response to solar, volcanic, and solar
plus volcanic forcing in the Zebiak–Cane (ZC) model, and to solar and solar plus volcanic forcing in the Goddard
Institute for Space Studies (GISS) E2-R model. By using a simple wavelet filtering technique they conclude that
the responses in the ZC model combine subadditively on timescales from 50 to ...
