Atrial Fibrillation and Cause-Specific Risks of Pulmonary Embolism and Ischemic Stroke 

Hald, Erin Mathiesen; Rinde, Ludvig Balteskard; Løchen, Maja-Lisa; Mathiesen, Ellisiv B.; Wilsgaard, Tom; Njølstad, Inger; Brækkan, Sigrid Kufaas; Hansen, John-Bjarne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-01-29)
<p><i>Background</i>: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a well‐established risk factor for ischemic stroke (IS). Emerging evidence also indicates an association between AF and pulmonary embolism (PE). Because IS may potentially mediate the observed risk of PE in AF, we aimed to assess the impact of AF on the cause‐specific risks of PE and IS in a large cohort recruited from the general population.</p> ...

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-09-12)
<b>Background:</b> <br> Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is used to diagnose type 2 diabetes (T2D) and assess glycemic control in patients with diabetes. Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified 18 HbA1c-associated genetic variants. These variants proved to be classifiable by their likely biological action as erythrocytic (also associated with erythrocyte traits) or ...

Elevated blood pressure is not associated with accelerated glomerular filtration rate decline in the general non-diabetic middle-aged population 

Eriksen, Bjørn Odvar; Stefansson, Vidar Tor Nyborg; Jenssen, Trond Geir; Mathisen, Ulla Dorte; Schei, Jørgen; Solbu, Marit Dahl; Wilsgaard, Tom; Melsom, Toralf (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-05-14)
Although hypertension is a risk factor for end-stage renal disease, this complication develops in only a minority of hypertensive patients. Whether non-malignant hypertension itself is sufficient to cause reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is unclear. We investigated whether elevated blood pressure (BP) was associated with accelerated GFR decline in the general population. The study ...

Albrektsen, Grethe; Heuch, Ivar; Løchen, Maja-Lisa; Thelle, Dag Steinar; Wilsgaard, Tom; Njølstad, Inger; Bønaa, Kaare Harald (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-07-08)
The data presented in this article relate to the research article entitled “Risk of incident myocardial infarction by gender: Interactions with serum lipids, blood pressure and smoking. The Tromsø Study 1979–2012” (Albrektsen et al., 2017) [1]. Data quantify the gender differences in the risk of myocardial infarction (MI) in terms of incidence rate ratios (IRR), in subgroups defined by serum lipids, ...

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified ~ 100 loci associated with blood lipid levels, but much of the trait heritability remains unexplained, and at most loci the identities of the trait-influencing variants remain unknown. We conducted a trans-ethnic fine-mapping study at 18, 22, and 18 GWAS loci on the Metabochip for their association with triglycerides (TG), high-density ...

Iversen, Anita; Thune, Inger; McTiernan, Anne; Emaus, Aina; Finstad, Sissi Espetvedt; Flote, Vidar Gordon; Wilsgaard, Tom; Lipson, Susan; Ellison, Peter T; Jasienska, Grazyna; Furberg, Anne-Sofie (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)
Ovarian hormones, parity and length of ‘menarche-to-first birth’ time interval are known risk factors for breast cancer, yet the associations between 17β-estradiol, progesterone and these reproductive factors remain unclear. A total of 204 women (25–35 years) who participated in the Norwegian EBBA-I study collected daily saliva samples for one complete menstrual cycle, and filled in a reproductive ...
