    • Role of microRNAs in venous thromboembolism 

      Morelli, Vania Maris; Brækkan, Sigrid Kufaas; Hansen, John-Bjarne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-04-09)
      MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs that execute their function by targeted downregulation of gene expressions. There is growing evidence from epidemiological studies and animal models suggesting that the expression level of miRNAs is dysregulated in venous thromboembolism (VTE). In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on the role of miRNAs as biomarkers for VTE and provide general ...

    • The Role of Stroke as a Trigger for Incident Venous Thromboembolism: Results from a Population-based Case-Crossover Study 

      Morelli, Vania Maris; Sejrup, Joakim Knutsen; Småbrekke, Birgit; Rinde, Ludvig B; Grimnes, Gro; Isaksen, Trond; Hansen, John-Bjarne; Hindberg, Kristian; Brækkan, Sigrid Kufaas (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-02-22)
      Stroke is associated with a short-term increased risk of subsequent venous thromboembolism (VTE). It is unclear to what extent this association is mediated by strokerelated complications that are potential triggers for VTE, such as immobilization and infection. We aimed to investigate the role of acute stroke as a trigger for incident VTE while taking other concomitant VTE triggers into account. ...

    • The role of Vitamin D binding protein, total and free 25-hydroxyvitamin D in diabetes 

      Jorde, Rolf (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-02-19)
      Vitamin D is important for bone health, but may also have extra-skeletal effects. Vitamin D and its binding protein DBP have immunological effects and may therefore be important in the development of type 1 diabetes (T1DM), and low serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) are associated with later development of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). However, it has so far been difficult to convincingly show ...

    • Rosuvastatin treatment decreases plasma procoagulant phospholipid activity after a VTE: A randomized controlled trial 

      Ramberg, Cathrine; Hindberg, Kristian; Biedermann, Joseph S.; Cannegieter, Suzanne C.; van der Meer, Felix J.; Snir, Omri; Leebeek, Frank W. G.; Kruip, Marieke J. H. A.; Hansen, John Bjarne; Lijfering, Willem M. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-25)
      Background - Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a frequent cardiovascular disease with severe complications, including recurrence and death. There is a great need for alternative prophylactic treatment options as anticoagulation is accompanied by increased bleeding risk. Statins are reported to reduce the risk of incident and recurrent VTE, but the mechanisms are elusive. Procoagulant phospholipids ...

      Bakke, Håkon Kvåle; Wisborg, Torben (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      Finnmark County is the northernmost county in Norway. For several decades, the rate of mortality after injury in this sparsely inhabited region has remained above the national average. Following documentation of this discrepancy for the period 1991–1995, improvements to the trauma system were implemented. The present study aims to assess whether trauma-related mortality rates have subsequently ...

    • Rusutløst psykose – en problematisk diagnose 

      Bramness, Jørgen Gustav; Syse, Aslak; Rognli, Eline B. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-20)
      Hvert år legges over 500 pasienter inn på norske sykehus med diagnosen rusutløst psykose. Men rusmiddelbruk er bare én av flere bidragende faktorer til at disse pasientene blir psykotiske, og mange får senere en schizofrenidiagnose.
