A Comparison of Anthropometric Measures for Assessing the Association between Body Size and Risk of Chronic Low Back Pain: TheHUNT Study
(Journal article, 2015)Background: Previous work indicates that overweight and obese individuals carry an increased risk of experiencing chronic low back pain (LBP). It is not known, however, how the association with body size depends on the ... -
A comparison of CT based measures of skeletal muscle mass and density from the Th4 and L3 levels in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background: Muscle mass and density assessed from CT-images at the L3 level are prognostic for survival and predict toxicity in cancer patients. However, L3 is not always included on routine CT-scans. We aimed to investigate ... -
A comparison of disease burden in rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and axial spondyloarthritis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Objective: The main objective of this study was to compare disease burden in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and axial spondyloarthritis (ax-SpA). Methods: In this cross-sectional study, all ... -
A Comparison of Frontal Theta Activity During Shooting among Biathletes and Cross-Country Skiers before and after Vigorous Exercise
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Background Previous studies using electroencephalography (EEG) to monitor brain activity have linked higher frontal theta activity to more focused attention and superior performance in goal-directed precision tasks. In ... -
A comparison of high frequency and low frequency visitors to practitioners of complementary and alternative medicine (cam)
(Master thesis, 2017)Aim: To investigate whether individuals with a high frequency of CAM visits differ from those with a low frequency of CAM visits in relation to socio-demographic characteristics, lifestyle, health, health-care utilisation, ... -
A comparison of minimal cross sectional areas, nasal volumes and peak nasal inspiratory flow between patients with obstructive sleep apnea and healthy controls
(Journal article, 2016)BACKGROUND: The differences in nasal geometry and function between OSA patients and healthy individuals are not known. Our aim was to evaluate the differences in nasal geometry and function using acoustic rhinometry (AR) ... -
A Comparison of Muscle Activity in Concentric and Counter Movement Maximum Bench Press
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)The purpose of this study was to compare the kinematics and muscle activation patterns of regular free-weight bench press (counter movement) with pure concentric lifts in the ascending phase of a successful one repetition ... -
A comparison of players' and coaches' perceptions of the coach-created motivational climate within youth soccer teams
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The coach-created motivational climate within youth sports teams has been shown to be of great importance for the quality of youths’ sports experiences as well as their motivation for continuing or discontinuing sport ... -
A comparison of symptoms and quality of life before and after nasal septoplasty and radiofrequency therapy of the inferior turbinate
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background The primary goal of this study is to compare pre- and postoperative symptoms and health related quality of life (HQOL) in 57 patients who underwent septoplasty (group-1), 56 patients who underwent septoplasty ... -
