The independent and joint associations of physical activity and body mass index with myocardial infarction: The Tromsø Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-13)
Physical activity and overweight are associated with myocardial infarction (MI). However, their joint association
with MI remains unclear. Our objective was to examine the independent and joint association between leisuretime
physical activity (LTPA), body mass index (BMI) and MI. This prospective cohort study included 16,572
men and women (47.5% women) aged 20–54 years who took part in the second ...
Vitamin D and mortality: Individual participant data meta-analysis of standardized 25-hydroxyvitamin D in 26916 individuals from a European consortium
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-02-16)
Background:<br>Vitamin D deficiency may be a risk factor for mortality but previous meta-analyses lacked standardization of laboratory methods for 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) concentrations and used aggregate data instead of individual participant data (IPD). We therefore performed an IPD meta-analysis on the association between standardized serum 25(OH)D and mortality.<br>Methods:<br>In a European ...
Long-term blood pressure trajectories and incident atrial fibrillation in women and men: the Tromsø Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-05-03)
Aims
To explore sex-specific associations between long-term individual blood pressure (BP) patterns and risk of incident atrial fibrillation (AF) in the general population.
Methods and results
Blood pressure was measured in 8376 women and 7670 men who attended at least two of the three population-based Tromsø Study surveys conducted in 1986–87, 1994–95, and 2001. Participants were followed for ...
Assessment of mental health trajectories before and after myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation or stroke: analysis of a cohort study in Tromsø, Norway (Tromsø Study, 1994-2016)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-01)
Objectives - The increased survival rate of cardiovascular disease (CVD) implies a higher proportion of individuals who live with CVD. Using data from the Tromsø Study, we aimed to investigate mental health symptom trajectories before and after myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation or stroke in a general population and to explore factors that contribute to the association.<p>
<p>Design - ...
Low pain tolerance is associated with coronary angiography, coronary artery disease, and mortality: The TROMSO study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-03)
BACKGROUND: The initial presentation to coronary angiography and extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) vary greatly among
patients, from ischemia with no obstructive CAD to myocardial infarction with 3-vessel disease. Pain tolerance has been suggested as a potential mechanism for the variation in presentation of CAD. We aimed to investigate the association between
pain tolerance, coronary ...
Outcomes after coronary angiography for unstable angina compared to stable angina, myocardial infarction and an asymptomatic general population
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-07-31)
Background: The outcomes of real-world unstable angina (UA) in the high-sensitivity troponin era are unclear. We
aimed to investigate the outcomes of UA referred to coronary angiography compared to stable angina (SA), nonST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), STEMI and a general population.<p>
<p>Methods: We included the 9,694 patients with no prior coronary artery disease (CAD) ...
Lifestyle factors as mediators of area-level socio-economic differentials in cardiovascular disease risk factors. The Tromsø Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-24)
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death and disability and living in areas with low
socio-economic status (SES) is associated with increased risk of CVD. Lifestyle factors such as smoking, physical
inactivity, an unhealthy diet and harmful alcohol use are main risk factors that contribute to other modifiable
risk factors, such as hypertension, raised blood cholesterol, ...
Sex-specific time trends in incident atrial fibrillation and the contribution of risk factors: the Tromsø Study 1994-2016
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-14)
Aims
To explore sex-specific time trends in atrial fibrillation (AF) incidence and to estimate the impact of changes in risk factor levels using individual participant-level data from the population-based Tromsø Study 1994–2016.<p>
<p>Methods and results
A total of 14 818 women and 13 225 men aged 25 years or older without AF were enrolled in the Tromsø Study between 1994 and 2008 and followed ...
Lifestyle factors as mediators of area-level socioeconomic differentials in mental health and cognitive function: the Tromsø Study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-11-22)
Introduction - Low socioeconomic status (SES) is associated with poor mental health and cognitive function. Individual-level SES and area-level SES (ASES) may affect mental health and cognitive function through lifestyle. We aimed to quantify the associations of ASES with mental health and cognitive function and examine the mediating role of lifestyle behaviours independent of individual-level SES ...
