    • Risk factors for type 2 diabetes in groups stratified according to metabolic syndrome : a 10-year follow-up of The Tromsø Study 

      Joseph, Josepha; Svartberg, Johan; Njølstad, Inger; Schirmer, Henrik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2010)
      Many incident cases of type 2 diabetes do not fulfill the metabolic syndrome, which accordingly has been questioned both as a research and clinical tool. The aim of this study was to determine differences in risk factors for type 2 diabetes between groups with high or low metabolic score. The study population were 26,093 men and women attending the Tromsø Study in 1994, followed through 2005, and ...

    • Risk Factors for Ventricular Septal Defects in Murmansk County, Russia: A Registry-Based Study 

      Kovalenko, Anton Alexandrovich; Anda, Erik Eik; Odland, Jon Øyvind; Nieboer, Evert; Brenn, Tormod; Krettek, Alexandra (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-06-24)
      Cardiovascular malformations are one of the most common birth defects among newborns and constitute a leading cause of perinatal and infant mortality. Although some risk factors are recognized, the causes of cardiovascular malformations (CVMs) remain largely unknown. In this study, we aim to identify risk factors for ventricular septal defects (VSDs) in Northwest Russia. The study population ...

    • Risk factors of anemia among preschool children in Ethiopia: a Bayesian geo-statistical model 

      Endris, Bilal Shikur; Dinant, Geert-Jan; Hagos, Seifu; Spigt, Marcus (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-07)
      Background - The etiology and risk factors of anemia are multifactorial and varies across context. Due to the geospatial clustering of anemia, identifying risk factors for anemia should account for the geographic variability. Failure to adjust for spatial dependence whilst identifying risk factors of anemia could give spurious association. We aimed to identify risk factors of anemia using a Bayesian ...

      <p><i>Background</i>: Few published breast cancer (BC) risk prediction models consider the heterogeneity of predictor variables between estrogen-receptor positive (ER+) and negative (ER-) tumors. Using data from two large cohorts, we examined whether modeling this heterogeneity could improve prediction.</p> <p><i>Methods</i>: We built two models, for ER+ (Model<sub>ER+</sub>) and ER- tumors ...

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-01-05)
      Aims - Atrial fibrillation (AF) is becoming increasingly common. Traditional cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) do not explain all AF cases. Blood-based biomarkers reflecting cardiac injury such as high-sensitivity troponin I (hsTnI) may help close this gap.<p> <p>Methods - We investigated the predictive ability of hsTnI for incident AF in 45,298 participants (median age 51.4 years, 45.0% men) ...

      Gentile, Ivan; Schiano Moriello, Nicola; Hopstaken, Rogier; Llor, Carl; Melbye, Hasse; Senn, Oliver (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-01-15)
      Tackling antibiotic resistance represents one of the major challenges in modern medicine, and limiting antibiotics’ overuse represents the first step in this fight. Most antibiotics are prescribed in primary care settings, and lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) are one of the most common indications for their prescription. An expert panel conducted an extensive report on C-reactive protein ...

      Harbitz, Martin Bruusgaard; Stensland, Per Steinar; Gaski, Margrete (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-28)
      Background and objectives: General practitioners (GPs), nurses and medical secretaries (practice staff) are responsible for the continuous provision of safe care in rural general practice. Little is known about their role in situations where patients were or could have been harmed in a rural setting. Therefore, we sought to investigate rural general practice staff experiences of patient safety ...
