• Association of smoking and cancer with the risk of venous thromboembolism: the Scandinavian Thrombosis and Cancer cohort 

      Paulsen, Benedikte; Gran, Olga Vikhammer; Severinsen, Marianne T.; Hammerstrøm, Jens; Kristensen, Søren Risom; Cannegieter, Suzanne C.; Skille, Hanne; Tjønneland, Anne; Rosendaal, Frits; Overvad, Kim; Næss, Inger Anne; Hansen, John-Bjarne; Brækkan, Sigrid K. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Smoking is a well-established risk factor for cancer, and cancer patients have a high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Conflicting results have been reported on the association between smoking and risk of VTE, and the ...
    • Existing data sources in clinical epidemiology: The Scandinavian Thrombosis and Cancer Cohort 

      Jensvoll, Hilde; Severinsen, Marianne T.; Hammerstrøm, Jens; Brækkan, Sigrid Kufaas; Kristensen, Søren R.; Cannegieter, Suzanne C.; Blix, Kristine; Tjønneland, Anne; Rosendaal, Frits Richard; Dziewiecka, Olga; Overvad, Kim; Næss, Inger Anne; Hansen, John-Bjarne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)
      Background: Although venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a known common complication in cancer patients, there is limited knowledge on patient-related and cancer-specific risk factors in the general population. The Scandinavian ...
    • Incidence, mortality and riskfactors of first venous thrombosisin a general population: Results from the second Nord-Trøndelag Health Study (HUNT 2) 

      Næss, Inger Anne (Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2008:12, Doctoral thesis, 2008)
      Venous thrombosis (VT) is the third most common cardiovascular disease after myocardial infarction and stroke. The most frequent clinical manifestation is thrombosis of the leg (deep venous thrombosis), which may embolize ...

    • Long-Term Incidence of Venous Thromboembolism in Cancer: The Scandinavian Thrombosis and Cancer Cohort 

      Gade, Inger Lise; Brækkan, Sigrid Kufaas; Næss, Inger Anne; Hansen, John-Bjarne; Cannegieter, Suzanne C.; Rosendaal, Frits Richard; Overvad, Kim; Hindberg, Kristian; Hammerstrøm, Jens; Gran, Olga Vikhammer; Tjønneland, Anne; Severinsen, Marianne T.; Kristensen, Søren R (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      The risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients who survive the first years after a cancer diagnosis after the acute effects of disease and treatment in comparison to a similar background population has been sparsely ...
    • Prothrombotic genotypes and risk of venous thromboembolism in occult cancer 

      Skille, Hanne; Paulsen, Benedikte; Hveem, Kristian; Severinsen, Marianne T.; Gabrielsen, Maiken Elvestad; Kristensen, Søren R.; Næss, Inger Anne; Hindberg, Kristian; Tjønneland, Anne; Brækkan, Sigrid Kufaas; Hansen, John-Bjarne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Background Studies have reported that the combination of some prothrombotic genotypes and overt cancer yields a synergistic effect on VTE risk. Whether individual prothrombotic genotypes or number of risk alleles in a ...
    • Survival after cancer-related venous thrombosis: the Scandinavian Thrombosis and Cancer Study 

      Crobach, Monique J.T.; Anijs, Rayna J.S.; Brækkan, Sigrid Kufaas; Severinsen, Marianne T.; Hammerstrøm, Jens; Skille, Hanne; Kristensen, Søren R.; Paulsen, Benedikte; Tjønneland, Anne; Versteeg, Henri H.; Overvad, Kim; Hansen, John Bjarne; Næss, Inger Anne; Cannegieter, Suzanne C. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Patients with cancer have an increased risk of developing venous thromboembolism (VTE), and this combination is reported to result in poorer survival compared with cancer alone. This study aimed to investigate the impact ...
