Atrial Fibrillation and Cause-Specific Risks of Pulmonary Embolism and Ischemic Stroke
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-01-29)
<p><i>Background</i>: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a well‐established risk factor for ischemic stroke (IS). Emerging evidence also indicates an association between AF and pulmonary embolism (PE). Because IS may potentially mediate the observed risk of PE in AF, we aimed to assess the impact of AF on the cause‐specific risks of PE and IS in a large cohort recruited from the general population.</p>

Anomalous phosphorescence from an organometallic white-light phosphor
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-09-25)
We report theoretical results on the possible violation of Kasha’s rule in the
phosphorescence process of (acetylacetonato)bis(1-methyl-2-phenylimidazole)iridium(III), and
show that the anomalous emission from both the T1 and T2 states is key to its white-light
phosphorescence. This analysis is supported by the calculated Boltzmann-averaged
phosphorescence lifetime of 2.21 μs, estimated including ...
The Science of Sungrazers, Sunskirters, and Other Near-Sun Comets
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-12-18)
This review addresses our current understanding of comets that venture close to the Sun, and are hence exposed to much more extreme conditions than comets that are typically studied from Earth. The extreme solar heating and plasma environments that these objects encounter change many aspects of their behaviour, thus yielding valuable information on both the comets themselves that complements other ...
High-density cultivation of terrestrial Nostoc strains leads to reprogramming of secondary metabolome
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-09-22)
Terrestrial symbiotic cyanobacteria of the genus <i>Nostoc</i> exhibit a large potential for the production of bioactive natural products of the nonribosomal peptide, polyketide, and ribosomal peptide classes, and yet most of the biosynthetic gene clusters are silent under conventional cultivation conditions. In the present study, we utilized a high-density cultivation approach recently developed ...
The acquisition of word order in L2 Norwegian: The case of subject and object shift
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-13)
This article reports on a syntactic acceptability judgement study of 59 adult L2/Ln learners of Norwegian and a group of native controls, studying subject and object shift. These constructions involve movement of (mainly) pronominal subjects or objects across negation/adverbs. Both subject shift and object shift display considerable micro-variation in terms of syntax and information structure, ...
Ein sieidi si rolle i religionsutøving i samtida: Skiftande tolkingar og tilnærmingar
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017)
Through contemporary shamanism, parts of pre-Christian practices and symbols are incorporated into new contexts and interpretive frames. One such symbol is the
sieidi
(Sami
sacrificial stone) and heritage site Rikkagallo in Lavangen municipality in Troms. Every
year from 2012, shaman Eirik Myrhaug has organized a hike to the
sieidi
to conduct a ritual
inspired by the traditions of his Sámi ...
Predicting unfavorable long-term outcome in juvenile idiopathic arthritis: Results from the Nordic cohort study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-05-03)
<i>Background</i>: The aim was to develop prediction rules that may guide early treatment decisions based on baseline
clinical predictors of long-term unfavorable outcome in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). <p>
<p><i>Methods</i>: In the Nordic JIA cohort, we assessed baseline disease characteristics as predictors of the following outcomes 8 years after disease onset. Non-achievement of ...
In Vitro and in Silico Competitive Binding of Brominated Polyphenyl Ether Contaminants with Human and Gull Thyroid Hormone Transport Proteins
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-12-28)
Tetradecabromo-1,4-diphenoxybenzene
(TeDB-DiPhOBz) is a highly brominated additive flame
retardant (FR). Debrominated photodegradates of TeDBDiPhOBz are hydroxylated <i>in vitro</i> in liver microsomal assays
based on herring gulls (<i>Larus argentatus</i>), including one
metabolite identified as 4<i>″</i>-OH-2,2<i>′</i>,2<i>″</i>,4-tetrabromo-DiPhOBz. Chemically related methoxylated tetra- ...
Differences between Men and Women in Treatment and Outcome after Traumatic Brain Injury
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-10-19)
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant cause of disability, but little is known about sex and gender differences after TBI. We aimed to analyze the association between sex/gender, and the broad range of care pathways, treatment characteristics, and outcomes following mild and moderate/severe TBI. We performed mixed-effects regression analyses in the prospective multi-center Collaborative ...
Samepolitikkens plass i utviklingsprosesser i nord
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-04-21)
I løpet av de siste 30 årene har framveksten av Sametinget og andre samiske institusjoner løftet samepolitikken inn i en internasjonal urfolksdiskurs, hvor samiske rettigheter er styrket gjennom norsk støtte til internasjonale konvensjoner. De tydeligste avtrykkene av samepolitikken finnes i Finnmark, der samer utgjør en betydelig andel av befolkningen og Sametinget er lokalisert. Temaet for denne ...
