The incidence, baseline predictors, and outcomes of dementia in an incident cohort of Parkinson’s disease and controls
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background There are few long-term data on the incidence, baseline predictors, and outcomes of dementia in Parkinson’s disease (PD) from prospective community-based incident cohorts. Methods The PINE study prospectively ... -
Inflammatorisk tarmsykdom og vurdering av tarmmikrobiota.
(Bachelor thesis, 2023)Inflammatorisk tarmsykdom (IBD) er en utbredt sykdom, spesielt i den vestlige verden. IBD klassifiseres normalt under to sykdommer; ulcerøs kolitt (UC) og Crohns sykdom (CD). Årsaken til IBD er ennå ikke kjent, men det er ... -
Inflammatory biomarkers in newly diagnosed patients with Parkinson’s disease and related neurodegenerative disorders
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background and Objectives Neuroinflammation contributes to Parkinson disease (PD) pathology, and inflammatory biomarkers may aid in PD diagnosis. Proximity extension assay (PEA) technology is a promising method for multiplex ... -

Influence of Nanoparticles and Media composition on Microalgal growth towards Environmental Remediation
(Master thesis, 2023)Scenedesmus sp. is one type of freshwater microalgae widely studied due to its robustness and versatility in growth, high nutrient removal and lipid production, making it a potential candidate as a renewable energy source ... -
The influence of terrain on the mean wind flow characteristics in a fjord
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Flow conditions in complex terrains such as fjords are highly three-dimensional and thus not properly captured by the wind flow models developed for homogenous terrains. In the present study, we explore the potential of ... -
Innovative Functional Biomaterials as Therapeutic Wound Dressings for Chronic Diabetic Foot Ulcers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-06)The imbalance of local and systemic factors in individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM) delays, or even interrupts, the highly complex and dynamic process of wound healing, leading to diabetic foot ulceration (DFU) in 15 ... -
Innovative strategies for enhanced extraction and functionality of microalgae proteins.
(Master thesis, 2023)Industrial exploitation of cultivated microalgae as protein feedstock has gained interest in recent years as a promising driver for the Norwegian bioeconomy. However, robust microalgal cell wall structures may lead to ... -
Insights into the potential of the Atlantic cod gut microbiome as biomarker of oil contamination in the marine environment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background: Microorganisms are widespread in all environments, including in and on animal bodies. The gut microbiome has an essential influence on fish health, and is affected by several persistent and harmful organic and ... -
Integrated biorefineries for repurposing of food wastes into value-added products
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Food waste (FW) generated through various scenarios from farm to fork causes serious environmental problems when either incinerated or disposed inappropriately. The presence of significant amounts of carbohydrates, proteins, ... -
Interleukin-1-related activity and hypocretin-1 in cerebrospinal fluid contribute to fatigue in primary Sjögren's syndrome
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background Fatigue is a common and sometimes debilitating phenomenon in primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS) and other chronic inflammatory diseases. We aimed to investigate how IL-1 β-related molecules and the neuropeptide ... -
