      Hagen, Gunhild; Wisløff, Torbjørn (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-16)
      Decisions on uptake of medicines and medical devices on health insurance schemes are increasingly based on a health technology assessment (HTA) process. In Norway, the process has included reimbursement of outpatient medicines for two decades. During the past years, in-patient medicines, medical devices and more recently vaccines are all included in the HTA system. In the present article, we ...

      Thorsen, Lene; Haugnes, Hege Sagstuen; Fosså, Sophie Dorothea; Brydøy, Marianne; Tandstad, Torgrim; Wisløff, Torbjørn; Gjerset, Gunhild Maria; Edvardsen, Elisabeth; Larsen, Karl-Otto; Sandset, Per Morten; Henriksson, Carola; Raastad, Truls; Negaard, Helene Francisca Stigter (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-06-11)
      The randomized “Testicular cancer and Aerobic and Strength Training trial” (TAST‐trial) aimed to evaluate the effect of high‐intensity interval training (HIIT) on cardiorespiratory fitness during cisplatin‐based chemotherapy (CBCT) for testicular cancer (TC). Here, we report on an unexpected high number of thromboembolic (TE) events among patients randomized to the intervention arm, and on a review ...

      Summary The validity of forearm fracture diagnoses recorded in fve Norwegian hospitals was investigated using image reports and medical records as gold standard. A relatively high completeness and correctness of the diagnoses was found. Algorithms used to defne forearm fractures in administrative data should depend on study purpose.<p> <p>Purpose In Norway, forearm fractures are routinely recorded ...

      Background: Self-reported data on educational level have been collected for decades in the Tromsø Study, but their validity has yet to be established. Aim: To investigate the completeness and correctness of self-reported educational level in the Tromsø Study, using data from Statistics Norway. In addition, we explored the consequence of using these two data sources on educational trends in ...
