Physical exercise and body-mass index in young adults: A national survey of Norwegian university students
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background Physical inactivity and obesity pose a major public health challenge. The aim of this study was to describe the level of physical exercise and body-mass index in college and university students, as well as to ... -
Impact of baseline coronary flow and its distribution on Fractional Flow Reserve prediction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Model‐based prediction of fractional flow reserve (FFR) in the context of stable coronary artery disease (CAD) diagnosis requires a number of modelling assumptions. One of these assumptions is the definition of a baseline ... -
Increased glycolysis and higher lactate production in hyperglycemic myotubes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Previous studies have shown that chronic hyperglycemia impairs glucose and fatty acid oxidation in cultured human myotubes. To further study the hyperglycemia-induced suppression of oxidation, lactate oxidation, mitochondrial ... -
Cardiovascular Health Effects of Shift Work with Long Working Hours and Night Shifts: Study Protocol for a Three-Year Prospective Follow-Up Study on Industrial Workers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)There is a plausible association between shift work and cardiovascular disease (CVD), which may be due to disruption of the circadian rhythm causing hormonal changes and metabolic disturbances, resulting in high blood ... -

Continuous hemodynamic monitoring in an intact rat model of simulated diving
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Cardiovascular risk is elevated in divers, but detailed information of cardiac function during diving is missing. The aim of this study was to apply an intact rat model with continuous monitoring of cardiac left ventricular ... -
Alkyladenine DNA glycosylase associates with transcription elongation to coordinate DNA repair with gene expression
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Base excision repair (BER) initiated by alkyladenine DNA glycosylase (AAG) is essential for removal of aberrantly methylated DNA bases. Genome instability and accumulation of aberrant bases accompany multiple diseases, ... -
A European multicentre evaluation of detection and typing methods for human enteroviruses and parechoviruses using RNA transcripts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detection has become the gold standard for diagnosis and typing of enterovirus (EV) and human parechovirus (HPeV) infections. Its effectiveness depends critically on using the appropriate ... -
Clutter Filter Wave Imaging
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The elastic properties of human tissue can be evaluated through the study of mechanical wave propagation captured using high frame rate ultrasound imaging. Methods such as block-matching or phase-based motion estimation ... -
Mixed evidence for the relationship between periodontitis and Alzheimer’s disease: A bidirectional Mendelian randomization study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Recent experimental studies indicated that a periodontitis-causing bacterium might be a causal factor for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We applied a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach to examine the potential ... -
