      <i>Importance</i> - No study, to our knowledge, has prospectively investigated a dose-response association between lifetime indoor tanning and risk of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).<p> <p><i>Objective</i> - To investigate the dose-response association between lifetime indoor tanning and SCC risk, the association between duration of use and age at initiation with SCC risk, and the ...
    • Clustering and trajectories of key noncommunicable disease risk factors in Norway: the NCDNOR project 

      Dalene, Knut Eirik; Lergenmuller, Simon; Sund, Erik Reidar; Hopstock, Laila Arnesdatter; Robsahm, Trude Eid; Nilssen, Yngvar; Nystad, Wenche; Larsen, Inger Kristin; Ariansen, Inger (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-02)
      Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are a leading cause of premature death globally and have common preventable risk factors. In Norway, the NCDNOR-project aims at establishing new knowledge in the prevention of NCDs by combining information from national registries with data from populationbased health studies. In the present study, we aimed to harmonize data on key NCD risk factors from the health ...
    • Life-Course Trajectories of Physical Activity and Melanoma Risk in a Large Cohort of Norwegian Women 

      Perrier, Flavie; Ghiasvand, Reza; Lergenmuller, Simon; Robsahm, Trude Eid; Green, Adele C.; Borch, Kristin Benjaminsen; Sandanger, Torkjel M; Weiderpass, Elisabete; Rueegg, Corina Silvia; Veierød, Marit Bragelien (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-22)
      Purpose: Physical activity (PA) is a cornerstone in disease prevention and varies throughout life. A pooled analysis of cohort studies and a meta-analysis of cohort studies found positive associations between PA and melanoma risk. However, previous studies focused on PA at specific ages and often lacked information on ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure. Using the population-based Norwegian Women ...
    • Lifetime sunburn trajectories and associated risks of cutaneous melanoma and squamous cell carcinoma among a cohort of Norwegian women 

      Lergenmuller, Simon; Rueegg, Corina Silvia; Perrier, Flavie; Robsahm, Trude Eid; Green, Adele C.; Lund, Eiliv; Ghiasvand, Reza; Veierød, Marit Bragelien (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-05)
      Importance - To our knowledge, no study has prospectively investigated sunburn patterns over age periods from childhood to adulthood and their associations with skin cancer risk.<p> <p>Objective - To identify lifetime trajectories of sunburns and compare the association between these trajectories and subsequent risk of cutaneous melanoma and squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC).<p> <p>Design, ...
    • National health registries – a ‘goldmine’ for studying non-communicable disease occurrence in Norway – the NCDNOR project 

      Nystad, Wenche; Hjellvik, Vidar; Larsen, Inger Kristin; Robsahm, Trude Eid; Sund, Erik Reidar; Krokstad, Steinar; Hopstock, Laila Arnesdatter; Grimsgaard, Anne Sameline; Langhammer, Arnulf; Bramness, Jørgen Gustav; Wisløff, Torbjørn; Lergenmuller, Simon; Dalene, Knut Eirik; Meyer, Haakon Eduard; Holvik, Kristin; Helgeland, Jon; Karlstad, Øystein; Ariansen, Inger (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-10)
      To estimate occurrence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) over the life-course in the Norwegian population, national health registries are a vital source of information since they fully represent the entire non-institutionalised population. However, as they are mainly established for administrative purposes, more knowledge about how NCDs are recorded in the registries is needed. To establish this, ...
    • Physical activity and cutaneous melanoma risk: A Norwegian population-based cohort study 

      Perrier, Flavie; Ghiasvand, Reza; Lergenmuller, Simon; Robsahm, Trude Eid; Green, Adele C.; Borch, Kristin Benjaminsen; Sandanger, Torkjel M; Weiderpass, Elisabete; Rueegg, Corina Silvia; Veierød, Marit Bragelien (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-04-20)
      Physical activity (PA) is an important factor in cancer prevention, but positive association between PA and risk of cutaneous melanoma found in recent studies may complicate this strategy. Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure during outdoor PA is a plausible explanation for a positive association. We investigated the associations between PA, UVR and melanoma risk in the Norwegian Women and Cancer ...
    • Sunscreens With High Versus Low Sun Protection Factor and Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma Risk: A Population-Based Cohort Study 

      Lergenmuller, Simon; Ghiasvand, Reza; Robsahm, Trude Eid; Green, Adèle C.; Lund, Eiliv; Rueegg, Corina Silvia; Veierød, Marit Bragelien (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-11)
      Evidence on sunscreen use and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) risk is limited. Most studies have not taken sun protection factor (SPF) into consideration and used nonusers of sunscreen as the reference group. Nonusers are likely a priori at lower cSCC risk than users. No study has investigated the effect of high- versus low-SPF sunscreens on cSCC, appropriately adjusting for time-varying ...
