      Objective: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a congenital condition affecting 2-3% of all infants. DDH increases the risk of osteoarthritis, is the cause of 30% of all total hip arthroplasties (THAs) in adults <40 years of age and can result in loss of life quality. Our aim was to explore the genetic background of DDH in order to improve diagnosis, management and longterm outcome.<p><p> ...

    • The Norwegian PraksisNett: a nationwide practice-based research network with a novel IT infrastructure 

      Kristoffersen, Espen Saxhaug; Bjorvatn, Bjørn; Halvorsen, Peder Andreas; Nilsen, Stein; Fossum, Guro Haugen; Fors, Egil Andreas; Jørgensen, Pål; Øxnevad-Gundersen, Berit; Gjelstad, Svein; Bellika, Johan Gustav; Straand, Jørund; Rørtveit, Guri (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-13)
      Clinical research in primary care is relatively scarce. Practice-based research networks (PBRNs) are research infrastructures to overcome hurdles associated with conducting studies in primary care. In Norway, almost all 5.4 million inhabitants have access to a general practitioner (GP) through a patient-list system. This gives opportunity for a PBRN with reliable information about the general ...

      <i>Background</i> - Little research exists on the effectiveness of motivational interviewing (MI) on return to work (RTW) in workers on long term sick leave. The objectives of this study protocol is to describe a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with the objectives to compare the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of usual case management alone with usual case management plus MI or usual case ...
