Extra-nodal extension is a significant prognostic factor in lymph node positive breast cancer
(PLOS, 2017-02-15)Presence of lymph node (LN) metastasis is a strong prognostic factor in breast cancer, whereas the importance of extra-nodal extension and other nodal tumor features have not yet been fully recognized. Here, we examined ... -
Genotypic characterization of gentamicin and cephalosporin 1 resistant Escherichia coli 2 isolates from blood cultures in a Norwegian university hospital 2011-2015
(BMC Springer, 2017-11-29)Background: Cephalosporin resistance in clinical E. coli isolates is increasing internationally. The increase has been caused by virulent and often multidrug-resistant clones, especially the extended spectrum beta-lactamase ... -
Helseatferd blant blodgivere
(NITO Bioingeniørfaglig institutt, 2018-10-02)Formål: Formålet med denne studien var å kartlegge helseatferd (tobakks- og alkoholbruk og fysisk aktivitet) i et utvalg av blodgivere, og undersøke i hvilken grad resultatene fra studien gjenspeiler helseatferd i den ... -
In vitro biological validation and cytocompatibility evaluation of hydrogel iron-oxide nanoparticles
(AIP Publishing, 2017-08-02)Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (MNPs) have recently been investigated for their excellent biocompatibility as well as multi-purpose biomedical potential with promising results, owing to their ability to be ... -
Initial Phase NT-proBNP, but Not Copeptin and High-Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin-T Yielded Diagnostic and Prognostic Information in Addition to Clinical Assessment of Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Patients With Documented Ventricular Fibrillation
(Frontiers Media, 2018-06-07)Aim: Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) secondary to ventricular fibrillation (VF) may be due to different cardiac conditions. We investigated whether copeptin, hs-cTnT and NT-proBNP in addition to clinical assessment may help ... -
An international investigation into O red blood cell unit administration in hospitals: the GRoup O Utilization Patterns (GROUP) study
(Wiley, 2017-08-25)BACKGROUND: Transfusion of group O blood to non-O recipients, or transfusion of D- blood to D+ recipients, can result in shortages of group O or D- blood, respectively. This study investigated RBC utilization patterns at ... -
Interval breast cancer rates and histopathologic tumor characteristics after false-positive findings at mammography in a populationbased screening program
(RSNA Radiological Society, 2017-12-14)Purpose To compare rates and tumor characteristics of interval breast cancers (IBCs) detected after a negative versus false-positive screening among women participating in the Norwegian Breast Cancer Screening ... -

(SAGE, 2017-06-19)Objective To report the long-term impact on cardiovascular (CV) outcomes and mortality of a 2-year hospital-based multi-interventional care programme as compared with general practitioner (GP)-provided standard ... -
No associations established between single nucleotide polymorphisms in human Toll-like receptor 2 and Toll-interacting protein and Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream infections
(Wiley, 2017-07-24)Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream infections (SABSI) are associated with high morbidity and mortality. The Toll‐like receptor 2 (TLR2) and Toll‐interacting protein (TOLLIP) are important in recognition and regulation of ... -
Noninvasive profiling of serum cytokines in breast cancer patients and clinicopathological characteristics
(Taylor & Francis, 2018-06-05)Cancers elicit an immune response by modifying the microenvironment. The immune system plays a pivotal role in cancer recognition and eradication. While the potential clinical value of infiltrating lymphocytes at the tumor ... -
