Associations between biological maturity level, match locomotion, and physical capacities in youth male soccer players
Gundersen, Hilde; Riiser, Amund; Algrøy, Erling Andre; Vestbøstad, Mona; Sæterbakken, Atle Hole; Clemm, Hege Synnøve Havstad; Grendstad, Halvard; Hafstad, Arild; Kristoffersen, Morten; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Introduction: Biological maturity level has shown to affect sport performance in youths. However, most previous studies have used noninvasive methods to estimate maturity level. Thus, the main aim of the present study was ... -
Ballistic strength training in adults with cerebral palsy may increase rate of force development in plantar flexors, but transition to walking remains unclear: a case series
Gjesdal, Beate Eltarvåg; Mæland, Silje; Bogen, Bård Erik; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes; Nesse, Vilde Cathrine; Torberntsson, Silje Marie Rydningen; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background Persons with cerebral palsy (CP) walk with reduced ankle plantar flexor power compared to typically developing. In this study, we investigated whether a ballistic strength-training programme targeting ankle ... -
Can adults with cerebral palsy perform and benefit from ballistic strength training to improve walking outcomes? A mixed methods feasibility study
Gjesdal, Beate Eltarvåg; Mæland, Silje; Williams, Gavin; Aaslund, Mona Kristin; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background Power bursts of hips and ankle plantar flexors are prerequisites to walking propulsion. However, these power bursts are reduced during gait for persons with cerebral palsy (CP) and mainly in the ankle plantar ... -
Epac1 null mice have nephrogenic diabetes insipidus with deficient corticopapillary osmotic gradient and weaker collecting duct tight junctions
Åsrud, Kathrine Sivertsen; Bjørnstad, Ronja; Kopperud, Reidun Kristin; Pedersen, Line; van der Hoeven, Barbara; Karlsen, Tine Veronica; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Curry, Fitz-Roy; Bakke, Marit; Reed, Rolf K.; Tenstad, Olav; Døskeland, Stein Ove (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Aim The cAMP‐mediator Epac1 (RapGef3) has high renal expression. Preliminary observations revealed increased diuresis in Epac1−/− mice. We hypothesized that Epac1 could restrict diuresis by promoting transcellular collecting ... -
Lack of functional normalisation of blood vessels following anti-angiogenic therapy in glioblastoma
Obad, Nina; Espedal, Heidi; Jirík, Radovan; Sakariassen, Per Øystein; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Lund-Johansen, Morten; Taxt, Torfinn; Niclou, Simone Pierrette; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Keunen, Olivier (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Neo-angiogenesis represents an important factor for the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to a growing tumour, and is considered to be one of the main pathodiagnostic features of glioblastomas (GBM). Anti-angiogenic therapy ... -
Performance in youth track and field is associated with birth quartile: A register-based study among athletes in Norway from 10 years to senior level
Gundersen, Hilde; Harris, Anette Kristoffersen; Grendstad, Halvard; Kristoffersen, Morten; Guttormsen, Atle; Dalen, Terje; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Introduction Earlier studies have demonstrated that the oldest in a competition class are more likely to succeed than the youngest, a phenomenon called relative age effect (RAE). Track and field give us an opportunity to ... -
Physical capacity, not skeletal maturity, distinguishes competitive levels in male Norwegian U14 players
Grendstad, Halvard Nikolai; Nilsen, Ann-Kristin; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Hafstad, Arild; Kristoffersen, Morten; Iversen, Vegard Vereide; Nybakken, Tone; Vestbøstad, Mona; Algrøy, Erling Andre; Sandbakk, Øyvind; Gundersen, Hilde (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The main aim of the present study was to compare skeletal maturity level and physi-cal capacities between male Norwegian soccer players playing at elite, sub-elite and non-elite level. Secondary, we aimed to investigate ... -
Radiation treatment monitoring using multimodal functional imaging: PET/CT (18F-Fluoromisonidazole & 18F-Fluorocholine) and DCE-US
Arteaga-Marrero, Natalia; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Mainou-Gomez, Jose Francisco; Adamsen, Tom Christian; Lutay, Nataliya; Reed, Rolf K.; Olsen, Dag Rune (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Background This study aims to assess the effect of radiation treatment on the tumour vasculature and its downstream effects on hypoxia and choline metabolism using a multimodal approach in the murine prostate tumour model ... -
Repurposing 18F-FMISO as a PET tracer for translational imaging of nitroreductase-based gene directed enzyme prodrug therapy
Ruiz de Garibay, Gorka; García de Jalón, Elvira; Stigen, Endre; Lund, Kjetil B.; Popa, Mihaela-Lucia; Davidson, Ben; Mayoral Safont, Mireia; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Espedal, Heidi; Barrett, Torill; Haug, Bengt Erik; Cormack, Emmet Mc (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Nitroreductases (NTR) are a family of bacterial enzymes used in gene directed enzyme prodrug therapy (GDEPT) that selectively activate prodrugs containing aromatic nitro groups to exert cytotoxic effects following gene ...
