      Longer distance cross-country ski (14–220 km) races such as the Visma Ski Classics (VSC) has recently gained attention in addition to the traditional Olympic distances (5–50 km) associated with cross-country (XC) skiing. These long-distance races are characterized by extensive use of the upper body while double poling (DP). While there is a substantial amount of research on Olympic distance XC skiing, ...

      Danielsen, Karin Helene; Vårnes, Thilde Kleppe; Sagelv, Edvard Hamnvik; Heitmann, Kim Arne; Mathisen, Gunnar (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-21)
      The aim of this study was to measure seasonal variations in physical activity (PA) during Polar Nights (PN) and Polar Days (PD) among elementary school children in the Arctic regions of Norway. One hundred and seventy-eight schoolchildren from 1<sup>st</sup>, 3<sup>rd</sup>, 5<sup>th</sup> and 7<sup>th</sup> grade participated in the study. Physical activity was measured for seven consecutive days ...

      Ardigò, Luca Paolo; Stöggl, Thomas Leonhard; Thomassen, Tor Oskar; Winther, Andreas Kjæreng; Sagelv, Edvard Hamnvik; Pedersen, Sigurd; Hammer, Tord; Heitmann, Kim Arne; Olsen, Odd-Egil; Welde, Boye (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-14)
      The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of prolonged ski racing using skating style on technique choice in a transition section among female and male high-level skiers. Fifty three national-to-elite level skiers (20 females: 26.7 ± 4.8 years, 167.0 ± 6.5 m, 61.0 ± 5.1 kg, and 75.5 ± 68.8 FIS points; 33 males: 25.2 ± 3.5 years, 179.0 ± 5.2 cm, 73.1 ± 5.7 kg, and 73.7 ± 63.2 FIS points) ...
    • Vertebral fractures assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and all-cause mortality. The Tromsø Study 2007-2020 

      Johansson, Jonas; Emaus, Nina; Geelhoed, Bastiaan; Sagelv, Edvard Hamnvik; Morseth, Bente (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-16)
      Vertebral fractures have been associated with increased mortality, but findings are inconclusive, and many vertebral fractures avoid clinical attention. We investigated this association in a general population of 2,476 older adults aged ≥55 years from Tromsø, Norway, who were followed over 2007–2020, using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at baseline to evaluate vertebral fractures (mild, ...
