O-195 The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on psychological distress due to the cancellation of ART. A systematic review and meta-analysis
2021
Abstract Study question Is there evidence that infertile patients have been more likely to experience distress during the COVID-19 outbreak with the consequent interruption of treatment plans? Summary answer High levels of psychological distress among infertile patients have been found during the COVID-19 pandemic, greater than that reported in the general population. What is known already Preliminary research on the negative consequences of the COVID-19 outbreak on mental health evidenced heightened levels of anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress in some clinical populations as well as in community samples. However, little is known about the impact of COVID-19 on psychological dist…
OS1.5 Harnessing soluble LRIG1 for pan-RTK targeting in glioblastoma
2018
INTRODUCTION: The role of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) in glioblastoma is widely acknowledged. However, therapies based on RTK targeting have been continuously unsuccessful in GBM patients, highlighting the complexity of RTK signaling and biology. LRIG1 (Leucine-rich Repeats and ImmunoGlobulin domains protein 1) was identified as an endogenous inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and other RTKs, and was confirmed as a tumor suppressor in various cancer types. We previously identified the soluble form of LRIG1 as a potent inhibitor of GBM growth in vivo, irrespective of EGFR status. Here, we aim to shed light on the molecular mechanisms underlying its anti-cancer activity…
Students’ Redesign of Mandatory Assignments in Teacher Education
2017
This article explores specific aspects of literacy practices in teacher education in Norway, building upon data collected within the research project Digital literacy and use of learning resources in teacher education in Norway (DigiGLU). Our main aim is to explore how teachers in different subject courses in teacher education (TE) design mandatory assignments, and how students respond to these designs. After the extensive TE-reform in 2010, in revised plans and documents guiding professional training, mandatory assignments (both form and content) were considered more important for the students’ learning process. In our investigation, the concepts of design for learning and design in learni…
