Developmental Origins of Disease: Influence of low birth weight and maternal vitamin A and D status on offspring skeletal health and metabolic outcomes at adulthood
Balasuriya, Chandima N.D. (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:221, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Developmental origins of adult health and disease (DOHaD) has gained increased attention during the past few decades. Birth size reflects the prenatal environment, and there is substantial evidence that low birth weight ... -

Jorde, Rolf; Stunes, Astrid Kamilla; Kubiak, Julia Magdalena; Joakimsen, Ragnar Martin; Grimnes, Guri; Thorsby, Per Medbøe; Syversen, Unni (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)In observational studies, vitamin D deficiency is a risk factor for low bone density and future fractures, whereas a causal relation has been difficult to show in randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Similarly, vitamin D ... -
Evidence of impaired bone quality in men with type 1 diabetes: A cross-sectional study
