    • Body composition in adults born preterm with very low birth weight 

      Jussinniemi, Laura; Kulmala, Maarit K.; Aakvik, Kristina Anna Djupvik; Benum, Silje Dahl; Jørgensen, Anna Perregaard Munch; Balasuriya, Chandima Nirupa Dilruks; Stunes, Astrid Kamilla; Syversen, Unni; Indredavik, Marit Sæbø; Andersson, Sture; Hovi, Petteri; Evensen, Kari Anne Indredavik; Kajantie, Eero Olavi (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)
      Background: Studies on body composition in preterm very low birth weight (VLBW < 1500 g) survivors are inconsistent and trajectories later in life unknown. We assessed body composition and its change from young to mid-adulthood ...

    • Hyperoxia reduces insulin release and induces mitochondrial dysfunction with possible implications for hyperoxic treatment of neonates 

      Hals, Ingrid Kathrin; Ohki, Tsuyoshi; Singh, Rinku; Ma, Zuheng; Björklund, Anneli; Balasuriya, Chandima Nirupa Dilruks; Scholz, Hanne; Grill, Valdemar Erik Robert (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      We previously showed that hyperoxia in vitro negatively affects beta cells of the rat. Here, we tested for possible clinical significance as well as mitochondrial interactions by hyperoxia, using human islets (function and ...

    • Maternal serum retinol, 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D concentrations during pregnancy and peak bone mass and trabecular bone score in adult offspring at 26-year follow-up 

      Balasuriya, Chandima Nirupa Dilruks; Larose, Tricia L; Mosti, Mats Peder; Evensen, Kari Anne Indredavik; Jacobsen, Geir Wenberg; Thorsby, Per Medbøe; Stunes, Astrid Kamilla; Syversen, Unni (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Background Vitamin A and D deficiency is prevalent in pregnant women worldwide. Both vitamins are involved in fetal skeletal development. A positive association between maternal vitamin D levels and offspring bone mineral ...

    • Peak bone mass and bone microarchitecture in adults born with low birth weight preterm or at term: A cohort study 

      Balasuriya, Chandima Nirupa Dilruks; Evensen, Kari Anne Indredavik; Mosti, Mats Peder; Brubakk, Ann-Mari; Jacobsen, Geir Wenberg; Indredavik, Marit Sæbø; Schei, Berit; Stunes, Astrid Kamilla; Syversen, Unni (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Context and Objectives: Peak bone mass (PBM) is regarded as the most important determinant of osteoporosis. Growing evidence suggests a role of intrauterine programming in skeletal development. We examined PBM and trabecular ...
