Can a Successful Outcome After Surgery for Lumbar Disc Herniation Be Defined by the Oswestry Disability Index Raw Score?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Study Design: Prospective multicenter cohort study. Objective: To investigate (1) the discriminative ability and cutoff estimates for success 12 months after surgery for lumbar disc herniation on the Oswestry Disability ... -
Can we define success criteria for lumbar disc surgery? Estimates for a substantial amount of improvement in core outcome measures
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Background and purpose A successful outcome after lumbar discectomy indicates a substantial improvement. To use the cutoffs for minimal clinically important difference (MCID) as success criteria has a large potential bias, ... -
Can we rely on simulated patients' satisfaction with their consultation for assessing medical students' communication skills? A cross-sectional study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-12-18)Background In medical education, teaching methods offering intensive practice without high utilization of faculty resources are needed. We investigated whether simulated patients’ (SPs’) satisfaction with a consultation ... -
Cancer cachexia: Rationale for the MENAC (Multimodal - Exercise, Nutrition and Anti-inflammatory medication for Cachexia) trial
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Cancer cachexia is a multifactorial syndrome characterised by an ongoing loss of skeletal muscle mass that cannot be fully reversed by conventional nutritional support alone. Cachexia has a high prevalence in cancer and a ... -
Cardiac function associated with previous, current and repeated depression and anxiety symptoms in a healthy population: the HUNT study.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Objective: Symptoms of anxiety and depression often co-exist with cardiovascular disease (CVD), yet little is known about the association with left ventricular (LV) subclinical dysfunction. We aimed to study the cross-sectional ... -
Cardiorespiratory fitness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis is associated with the patient global assessment but not with objective measurements of disease activity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Objective Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) suffer from more cardiovascular disease (CVD), and develop cardiovascular risk factors at an earlier age than the general population. Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is an ... -
Cardiovascular Disease and Osteoporosis in Psoriatic Arthritis
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:126, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an inflammatory joint disease (IJD) associated with psoriasis. The clinical presentation is heterogeneous and may involve the peripheral joints, the axial skeleton and the entheses, as well as ... -
Cardiovascular fitness and risk of migraine: A large, prospective population-based study of Swedish young adult men
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Objectives: To examine the longitudinal relationship between cardiovascular fitness in young adult men and future risk of migraine and to estimate eventual differential effects among categories of body mass index (BMI) and ... -
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 ... -
Cardiovascular responses to cognitive stress in patients with migraine and tension-type headache
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2007)Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the temporal relationship between autonomic changes and pain activation in migraine and tension-type headache induced by stress in a model relevant for everyday ... -
Caring burden of cohabitants living with partners suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or dementia
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2011:150, Doctoral thesis, 2011)Omsorgsbelastning hos ektefeller og samboere med partnere som har kronisk obstruktiv lungesykdom eller demens av Bente Nordtug Bakgrunn Det forventes økende forekomst av kronisk obstruktiv lungesykdom (KOLS) og demens i ... -
Catering new neurons to environmental needs: Activity of granule cells regulates neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2016:32, Doctoral thesis, 2016)The mammalian adult dentate gyrus generates new neurons. In a process called adult neurogenesis neural stem cells give rise to new neurons that mature and integrate into the existing neural network. By their addition and ... -
CAUSAL FACTORS AND PROGNOSIS OF STATUS EPILEPTICUS
(Master thesis, 2013)Purpose: To evaluate the duration, treatment and prognosis of status epilepticus (SE) in relation to cause. Of particular interest was to examine how nonadherence to prophylactic medication contributed to SE in patients ... -

Cerebrospinal fluid A?43 is reduced in early-onset compared to late-onset Alzheimer's disease, but has similar diagnostic accuracy to A?42
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background: Amyloid beta 1–43 (Aβ43) may be a useful additional biomarker for diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We have investigated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of Aβ43 in patients with early-onset AD in contrast ... -
