      Dietary advanced glycation end-products (dAGEs) have been hypothesized to be associated with a higher risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) by promoting inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, and oxidative stress in the colonic epithelium. However, evidence from prospective cohort studies is scarce and inconclusive. We evaluated CRC risk associated with the intake of dAGEs in the European Prospective ...

      BACKGROUND: There is controversy about associations between total dietary fatty acids, their classes (saturated fatty acids [SFAs], monounsaturated fatty acids, and polyunsaturated fatty acids), and risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Specifically, the relevance of food sources of SFAs to CHD associations is uncertain.<p> METHODS AND RESULTS: We conducted a case-cohort study involving 10 529 ...

    • Clinical Reasoning - a Scotoma in the Medical Gaze? 

      Risør, Torsten; Rodriguez, Charo (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-07-07)
      Clinical reasoning is a core activity in everyday clinical work, but is also a well-developed field of research with scholarly papers, reviews, books, conferences and medical curriculum activities. In this body of knowledge, and although it remains a complex construct [1], clinical reasoning is generally defined as the cognitive processes and mental structures that physicians mobilise to decide on ...

    • Historical foundations and contemporary expressions of a right to health care in Circumpolar Indigenous contexts: A cross-national analysis 

      Lavoie, Josée G.; Stoor, Jon Petter; Rink, Elizabeth; Cueva, Katie; Gladun, Elena; Larsen, Christina Viskum Lytken; Akearok, Gwen Healey; Kanayurak, Nicole (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-07-14)
      Although numerous comparative Indigenous health policy analyses exist in the literature, to date, little attention has been paid to comparative analyses of Circumpolar health policy and the impact these policies may have on Indigenous peoples’ rights to health. In this article, we ground our discussion of Indigenous peoples’ right to access culturally appropriate and responsive health care within ...

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-06-05)
      Background. Endometrial cancer is strongly associated with obesity and dysregulation of metabolic factors such as estrogen and insulin signaling are causal risk factors for this malignancy. To identify additional novel metabolic pathways associated with endometrial cancer we performed metabolomic analyses on pre-diagnostic plasma samples from 853 case-control pairs from the European Prospective ...

      Background There are concerns that the response to the COVID-19 pandemic in the UK might have worsened physical and mental health, and reduced use of health services. However, the scale of the problem is unquantified, impeding development of effective mitigations. We aimed to ascertain what has happened to general practice contacts for acute physical and mental health outcomes during the ...

      Thapa, Dip Raj; Ekström-Bergström, Anette; Krettek, Alexandra; Areskoug Josefsson, Kristina (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-02-09)
      Registered nurses and midwives are in short supply and have among the highest rates of sick leave in the global workforce. The aim of this study was therefore to explore and gain a deeper understanding of how nurses and midwives experience their everyday work, with a view toward promoting and sustaining their work-related health. Nine registered nurses and four registered midwives working in hospitals ...

      Ghiasvand, Reza; Green, Adele C.; Sandanger, Torkjel M; Weiderpass, Elisabete; Robsahm, Trude Eid; Veierød, Marit Bragelien (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-04-21)
      Patients’ phenotypic characteristics might be associated with melanoma aggressiveness, but the evidence is scarce. This study examined the associations be­tween pigmentary characteristics, naevi and melanoma thickness. Data from the Norwegian Women and Cancer (NOWAC) study were analysed. By 2014, 1,243 women were diagnosed with a primary melanoma, and 1,140 had information on thickness. Using ordinal ...

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-01-04)
      <b>Background</b> Nutrition and lifestyle have been long established as risk factors for colorectal cancer (CRC). Modifiable lifestyle behaviours bear potential to minimize long-term CRC risk; however, translation of lifestyle information into individualized CRC risk assessment has not been implemented. Lifestyle-based risk models may aid the identification of high-risk individuals, guide referral ...

      Background - Second-hand smoke (SHS) is not an established risk factor for breast cancer. We examined exposure to SHS from parents during childhood and breast-cancer risk overall and by oestrogen- and progesterone-receptor status in the Norwegian Women and Cancer Study. Furthermore, we utilized our nationally representative prospective cohort study to estimate the fraction of breast cancer attributable ...

    • Menopausal symptoms in epithelial ovarian cancer survivors: a GINECO VIVROVAIRE2 study

The present multicenter study investigated the main menopausal symptoms and gynecological management of EOC survivors (EOCS).<p> <p>Methods - 166 patients with relapse-free ≥3 years after the end of treatment attended a consultation ...

    • Workplace Cold and Perceived Work Ability: Paradoxically Greater Disadvantage for More vs. Less-Educated Poultry Industry Workers in Thailand 

      Phanprasit, Wantanee; Konthonbut, Pajaree; Laohaudomchok, Wisanti; Tangtong, Chaiyanun; Ikäheimo, Tiina; Jaakkola, Jouni; Nayha, Simo (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-01)
      The association between worksite temperature and perceived work ability (WA) in various educational classes remains unknown. Therefore, we interviewed 286 poultry industry workers in Thailand about their WA and linked their responses to worksite temperature. WA was based on the self-assessment of current work ability compared with their lifetime best ability (scores 0–10). Education was classified ...
