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 analysis of markers. also plays role related neurodegenerative diseases, such as dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) Alzheimer (AD). The aim this work was assess the value newly diagnosed patients DLB AD.Patients from Norwegian ParkWest Dementia Study Western Norway longitudinal cohorts (PD, n = 120;...
The focus of this study is the identification reader profiles that differ in performance and progression an educational literacy app. A total 19,830 students Grade 2 from 347 Elementary schools located 30 different districts United States played app 2020 to 2021. Our aim was identify unique groups readers using unsupervised statistical learning technique - cluster analysis. Six indicators generated students' log files were included provide insights into engagement across four reading-related...
Scaffolding features that provide multimodal support for the pronunciation and meaning of words are increasingly common in digital reading environments. These vocabulary scaffolds intended to aid accurate understanding individual context, thus supporting both development comprehension text. However, evidence on their efficacy remains inconclusive. The present study adds base by examining: 1) whether child characteristics predict use scaffolds; 2) is associated with performance; 3)...

Abstract Background Cardiac myosin binding protein C (cMyC) is an emerging new biomarker of myocardial injury rising earlier and cleared faster than cardiac troponins. It has discriminatory power similar to high‐sensitive troponins in diagnosing infarction patients presenting with chest pain. also associated outcome acute heart failure. currently unclear how it relates chronic failure undergoing exercise training. Methods results This a post hoc analysis symptomatic the multicentre...
Abstract Purpose To investigate changes in macular hole-related oedema depending on positioning. Methods Prospective interventional study of 40 patients with primary hole (MH). Optical coherence tomography scanning was done at 9 a.m., 1 p.m., and 3 p.m. Between the first second scanning, were instructed to stay upright, whereas they positioned recumbent thereafter. Automated mean retinal thickness measurements derived from ETDRS grid for central, parafoveal, perifoveal subfields. Mean ocular...
The life cycles of the conidiating species Neurospora are adapted to respond fire, which is reflected in their natural history. found commonly on burned vegetation from tropic and subtropical regions around world through temperate western North America. In Europe it was unknown whether would be as common America because has been reported only occasionally. 2003 2004 a multinational effort surveyed wildfire sites southern Europe. Portugal Spain (37 degrees N) Switzerland (46 N). Species...
Impulse control disorders (ICDs) are frequent non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD), with potential negative effects on quality of life and social functioning. ICDs closely associated dopaminergic therapy, genetic polymorphisms several neurotransmitter pathways may increase the risk addictive behaviors PD. However, clinical differentiation between patients at without is still troublesome. The aim this study was to investigate if across ICD status Methods: Whole exome sequencing data...
Abstract Purpose To review the incidence, aetiology and outcomes of endophthalmitis during a 20‐year period in Norwegian university hospital. Methods Single‐centre retrospective review. Medical records all patients admitted to Stavanger University Hospital with suspected between January 1999 December 2018 were reviewed. Results We identified 84 eyes 81 patients. Postoperative (PE) was seen 64 (76%), endogenous thirteen (15%), trauma four (5%) three (4%) had keratitis‐associated...
Patients with chest pain and normal coronary angiogram [angina arteries (ANOCA)] constitute a therapeutic problem considerable functional limitation reduced quality of life. The aims the current pilot study were to (i) explore if structured aerobic high-intensity interval training (HIT) program for 12 weeks was feasible in patients ANOCA, (ii) assess mechanisms related symptoms this population.Sixteen ANOCA underwent 3-month HIT one-to-one monitored exercise sessions on treadmill 4 min ×...

Introduction Facemask ventilation is a crucial, but challenging, element of neonatal resuscitation. In previously reported study, instructor-led training using novel simulator resulted in high-level competence for health care providers (HCPs) involved newborn The aim this study was to identify the optimal frequency and dose simulation maintain level. Methods Prospective observational HCPs through 9 months. All logged. Overall scores were calculated each case, incorporating 7 skill elements...
Substance use disorder (SUD) is often considered a chronic illness in which prolonged recovery, terms of abstinence, uncommon. Personality has been found to predict but not much known about its long-term predictive ability as the majority previous studies have had short follow-up periods (≥ one year). The current longitudinal cohort study therefore investigated whether personality traits short- (STR) well recovery (LTR) SUD patients.

The present study investigates the personality characteristics of a cohort patients with Substance Use Disorders. included participants (n = 123) were recruited from specialized treatment for addictions in Norway. scores current sample compared to Norwegian norm t-tests. Age and gender differences assessed by bivariate correlation analyses t-tests, respectively. had higher on Neuroticism lower Conscientiousness, Agreeableness, Extraversion, Openness (p < 0.01). effect sizes between large...
Many children who suffer from one mental health issue also at least co-occurring disorder and a range of developmental psychopathology theories, including cascade network models, have been proposed to explain this widespread co-occurrence. Autoregressive latent trajectory models with structured residuals (ALT-SR) multilevel graphical vector autoregression (GVAR) are recently complementary approaches that can help operationalize test these theories provide new insights into the reciprocal...
Face mask ventilation of apnoeic neonates is an essential skill. However, many non-paediatric healthcare personnel (HCP) in high-resource childbirth facilities receive little hands-on real-life practice. Simulation training aims to bridge this gap by enabling skill acquisition and maintenance. Success may rely on how closely a simulator mimics the clinical conditions faced HCPs during neonatal resuscitation. Using novel, low-cost, high-fidelity designed train newborn skills, we compared...
Butterfly glioblastoma is a rare subgroup of with bihemispheric tumor crossing the corpus callosum, and associated dismal prognosis. Prognostic factors are previously sparsely described optimal treatment remains uncertain. We aimed to analyze clinical characteristics, strategies, outcomes from butterfly in real-world setting.This retrospective population-based cohort study included patients diagnosed Western Norway between 01/01/2007 31/12/2014. enrolled histologically confirmed diagnosis...
Abstract Adolescence is a critical period in the development of mental health with nearly 1 5 adolescents suffering from problems and more than 40 percent these experiencing at least one co-occurring disorder. This study investigates whether there are differences relations between key dimensions child adolescent adolescence compared to childhood. Mental related socio-emotional traits were measured longitudinally ages 4, 7, 8, 9, 11, 13, 16 Avon Longitudinal Study Parents Children ( N =...
Given the complexity of Parkinson's disease (PD), achieving acceptable diagnostic and prognostic accuracy will require support a panel diverse biomarkers. We used Proximity extension assays to measure 92 proteins in CSF 120 newly diagnosed PD patients 45 control subjects without neurological disease. From 75 detectable >90% subjects, regularized regression analysis identified four (β-NGF, CD38, tau NCAN) as downregulated (age at diagnosis 67.2 ± 9.4 years) compared controls 65.4 10.9 years)....
Shorter breastfeeding duration has been linked to a range of difficulties in children. However, evidence linking shorter child behavioural problems inconclusive. Owing an almost exclusive focus on early childhood previous research, little is known about effects behaviour throughout and adolescence. This study examines the longitudinal effect breast feeding parent-reported children aged 3-14.Data come from Millennium Cohort Study, large, prospective, UK birth cohort study.11 148 children,...
