      Objective - Increased prevalence of cardiovascular disease has been reported in autoimmune Addison's disease (AAD), but pathomechanisms are poorly understood.<p> <p<Design - Cross-sectional study.<p> <p>Methods - We compared serum levels of 177 cardiovascular and inflammatory biomarkers in 43 patients with AAD at >18-h glucocorticoid withdrawal and 43 matched controls, overall and stratified ...
    • Cause-specific excess mortality after hip fracture: the Norwegian Epidemiologic Osteoporosis Studies (NOREPOS) 

      Holvik, Kristin; Ellingsen, Christian Lycke; Solbakken, Siri Marie; Finnes, Trine Elisabeth; Talsnes, Ove; Grimnes, Guri; Tell, Grethe Seppola; Søgaard, Anne-Johanne; Meyer, Haakon Eduard (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-31)
      Background Information on cause of death may help appraise the degree to which the high excess mortality after hip fracture refects pre-existing comorbidities or the injury itself. We aimed to describe causes of death and causespecifc excess mortality through the frst year after hip fracture.<p> <p>Methods For studying the distribution of causes of death by time after hip fracture, we calculated ...

      Purpose: Residual adrenocortical function, RAF, has recently been demonstrated in one-third of patients with autoimmune Addison’s disease (AAD). Here, we set out to explore any influence of RAF on the levels of plasma metanephrines and any changes following stimulation with cosyntropin. Methods: We included 50 patients with verified RAF and 20 patients without RAF who served as controls upon cosyntropin ...

      <i>Context</i> - Contrary to current dogma, growing evidence suggests that some patients with autoimmune Addison disease (AAD) produce corticosteroids even years after diagnosis.<p> <p><i>Objective</i> - To determine frequencies and clinical features of residual corticosteroid production in patients with AAD.<p> <p><i>Design</i> - Two-staged, cross-sectional clinical study in 17 centers (Norway, ...
