Safety and efficacy of tenecteplase in patients with wake-up stroke assessed by non-contrast CT (TWIST): a multicentre, open-label, randomised controlled trial.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-19)Background - Current evidence supports the use of intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase in patients with wake-up stroke selected with MRI or perfusion imaging and is recommended in clinical guidelines. However, access to advanced imaging techniques is often scarce. We aimed to determine whether thrombolytic treatment with intravenous tenecteplase given within 4·5 h of awakening improves functional ... -
Implementing Electronic Health Records – Cases, Concepts, Questions
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023)Learning is inherently social. This raises several questions that relate to how contexts and spaces can mediate co-creative learning. In this workshop proposal, we refer to the interrelated aspects of space, learning, and embodiment and how these aspects mediate the human-robot interaction. Our assumption is that robots are interpreted variously and used in different ways. We are interested in the ... -
Echoes from Intrinsic Connectivity Networks in the Subcortex
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-27)Decades of research have greatly improved our understanding of intrinsic human brain organization in terms of functional networks and the transmodal hubs within the cortex at which they converge. However, substrates of multinetwork integration in the human subcortex are relatively uncharted. Here, we leveraged recent advances in subcortical atlasing and ultra-high field (7 T) imaging optimized for ... -
Sexual Incentive Motivation
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023-05-17)Motivation can be described as the processes that activate, direct, and determine the persistence of goal-directed behavior. A certain level of sexual motivation is required to activate approach behavior which could potentially lead to copulation and reproduction. Here, we discuss the use of the sexual incentive motivation test to assess the magnitude of sexual motivation in rodents in response to ... -
Samtykke fra mindreårige. Implikasjoner rundt barns samtykke til informasjonsdeling i tverretatlig samarbeid.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-19)For å sikre helhetlig oppfølging av utsatte barn og unge er samarbeid på tvers av tjenester et uttalt mål i offentlig sektor, og det følger også av lov. En samordnet innsats fordrer informasjonsdeling mellom tjenester, hvilket medfører utfordringer knyttet til blant annet taushetsplikt, samtykke og personvern. I enkeltsaker kan det være krevende å avgjøre hvorvidt en mindreårig er samtykkekompetent. ... -
No effect of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation on inflammatory markers in familial hypercholesterolemia: a randomized crossover trial
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-31)Individuals with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) have increased cardiovascular risk despite lipid-lowering therapy, and additional therapy is warranted. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-3 PUFA) supplements have demonstrated an effect on cardiovascular endpoints in some clinical trials. Platelet-modifying and anti-inflammatory properties are among the proposed beneficial effects of n-3 PUFA. ... -
Prisoners' perceived oral and general health and their experience with accessing, understanding and assessing health information: A qualitative study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-20)Prisoners’ oral health and general health are closely connected and generally poorer than that of the wider population.

Impact of active placebo controls on estimated drug effects in randomised trials: a systematic review of trials with both active placebo and standard placebo
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-06)Background - An estimated 60% of pharmacological randomised trials use placebo control interventions to blind (i.e. mask) participants. However, standard placebos do not control for perceptible non‐therapeutic effects (i.e. side effects) of the experimental drug, which may unblind participants. Trials rarely use active placebo controls, which contain pharmacological compounds designed to mimic the ... -
Aktigrafi som supplerende mål på fysisk funksjon hos personer med CFS/ME sett i sammenheng med fatigue, psykisk helse og livskvalitet
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2019-05-09)Det er flere utfordringer knyttet til selvrapporterte mål på symptomer og funksjonsnivå ved kronisk utmattelsessyndrom. Et objektivt mål som kan supplere slike subjektive vurderinger av tilstanden er etterspurt for bedre å kunne fange opp endring etter tiltak. Den overordnede hensikten med denne studien var å undersøke hvorvidt variabler fra en aktigraf kan fungere som et mål på fysisk funksjon. En ... -
Reflections on the nature of measurement in language-based automated assessments of patients' mental state and cognitive function
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-22)Modern advances in computational language processing methods have enabled new approaches to the measurement of mental processes. However, the field has primarily focused on model accuracy in predicting performance on a task or a diagnostic category. Instead the field should be more focused on determining which computational analyses align best with the targeted neurocognitive/psychological functions ... -
