Atherosclerotic risk factors and risk of myocardial infarction and venous thromboembolism; Time-fixed versus time-varying analyses. The Tromsø Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-09-16)
<i>Background:</i> Single measurements of modifiable risk factors may underestimate associations with outcomes in cohorts. We aimed to compare risk estimates of myocardial infarction (MI) and
venous thromboembolism (VTE) by atherosclerotic risk factors during long follow-up using
time-fixed analyses without and with correction for regression dilution and time-varying
analyses.<p>
<p><i>Methods:</i> ...
Ischemic Stroke and Risk of Venous Thromboembolism in the General Population: The Tromsø Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-11-07)
<i>Background</i> - Even though clinical data support a relation between ischemic stroke and venous thromboembolism (VTE), the
strength and time dependence of the association remain to be settled at the population level. We therefore aimed to investigate
the association between ischemic stroke and VTE in a prospective population-based cohort.<p>
<p><i>Methods and Results</i> - Participants (n=30 ...
Impact of incident myocardial infarction on the risk of venous thromboembolism: the Tromsø Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-05-10)
Background: Recent studies have demonstrated an association between venous thromboembolism (VTE) and arterial thrombotic diseases.
<p> Objectives: We aimed to study the association between incident myocardial infarction (MI) and VTE in a prospective population-based cohort.
<p> Methods: Study participants (n=29 506) were recruited from three surveys of the Tromsø Study (conducted in 1994-95, 2001-02 ...
Impact of prothrombotic genotypes on the association between family history of myocardial infarction and venous thromboembolism
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-05-24)
<i>Background</i>: Family history of myocardial infarction (FHMI) is known to increase the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE).<p>
<p><i>Objectives</i>: To investigate the effect of prothrombotic genotypes on the association between FHMI and VTE in a case‐cohort recruited from a general population.<p>
<p><i>Methods</i>: Cases with a first VTE (<i>n</i> = 1493) and a subcohort (<i>n</i> = ...
Repeated measurements of carotid atherosclerosis and future risk of venous thromboembolism: the Tromsø Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-10-05)
<p><i>Background</i>: Whether a relationship between atherosclerosis and subsequent venous thromboembolism (VTE) exists is controversial.</p>
<p><i>Objective</i>: To investigate the association between carotid atherosclerosis and VTE by using repeated measurements of intima media thickness (IMT) and total plaque area (TPA) in participants recruited from the general population.</p>
<p><i>Methods</i>: ...
Myocardial infarction and future risk of cancer in the general population—the Tromsø Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-02-07)
The association between myocardial infarction (MI) and future risk of incident cancer is scarcely investigated. Therefore, we aimed to study the risk of cancer after a first time MI in a large cohort recruited from a general population. Participants in a large population-based study without a previous history of MI or cancer (n = 28,763) were included and followed from baseline to date of cancer, ...
