A long term follow up programme for maintenance of motor funnction after stroke: Protocol of the Life After STroke- The LAST Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Background. There are no evidence-based strategies that have been shown to be superior in maintaining motor function for months to years after the stroke. The LAST study therefore intends to assess the effect of a long-term ... -
A longitudinal study of amyloid beta 1-43 levels in cerebrospinal fluid from patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment or early Alzheimer's disease
(Master thesis, 2015)Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a severe neurodegenerative dis- ease and its prevalence is rising globally. Evidence suggests that the pathological lesion of AD in the brain starts 10-15 years before the onset of ... -
A longitudinal study of associations between psychiatric symptoms and disorders and cerebral gray matter volumes in adolescents born very preterm
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background:Being born preterm with very low birthweight (VLBW≤1500 g) poses a risk for cortical andsubcortical gray matter (GM) abnormalities, as well as for having more psychiatric problems during childhood andadolescence ... -
A longitudinal study of fractional anisotropy in white matter of preterm born very low birth weight adolescents and young adults compared to term born controls
(Master thesis, 2013)Preterm born children with very low birth weight (VLBW, birth weight < 1500 g)are at increased risk of perinatal brain damage. Perinatal factors, such as low birthweight and morbidity leading to intensive care treatment ... -
A longitudinal study of physical activity and menstrual cycle characteristics in healthy Norwegian women – The Nord-Trøndelag Health Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Background: Long menstrual cycles have been associated with anovulation, infertility and spontaneous abortion. Elite athletes have been found at risk of menstrual dysfunction. We evaluated the longitudinal association ... -
A meta-analysis of constraint-induced movement therapy after stroke
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Objective: To evaluate the effect of constraint-induced movement therapy in adult stroke patients and to examine the impact of time since stroke and various treatment modalities. Data sources: PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane and ... -
A multi-sensor system for automatic analysis of classical cross-country skiing techniques
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Commercial systems utilizing data from inertial measurement units (IMUs) to analyse movement patterns have not yet been adapted to monitor daily training in cross-country (XC) skiing. The main purposes of this study are ... -
A new acoustic coupling fluid with ability to reduce ultrasound imaging artefacts in brain tumour surgery - a phase I study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background Anovel acoustic coupling fluid (ACF), with the potential to reduce surgically induced image artefacts during intraoperative ultrasound imaging in brain tumour surgery, has been evaluated with respect to image ... -
A particular effect of sleep, but not pain or depression, on the blood-oxygen-level dependent response during working memory tasks in patients with chronic pain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Background: Patients with chronic pain (CP) are often reported to have deficits in working memory. Pain impairs working memory, but so do depression and sleep problems, which are also common in CP. Depression has been ... -
A physical activity intervention to prevent cognitive decline after stroke – Secondary results from the LAST (Life After Stroke) study. An 18-month randomised controlled trial.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Objective: To examine the effects of individualized regular coaching and exercise on post-stroke cognitive and emotional function. Methods: The Life After STroke (LAST) study investigated the differences between intervention ... -
A physical activity program is no more effective than standard care at maintaining upper limb activity in community-dwelling people with stroke: secondary outcomes from a randomized trial.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Objective: To evaluate whether an 18-month, physical activity coaching program is more effective than standard care in terms of upper-limb activity. Design: A prospective, randomized controlled trial. Setting: Three ... -
A physical activity reference data-set recorded from older adults using body-worn inertial sensors and video technology?The ADAPT study data-set
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Physical activity monitoring algorithms are often developed using conditions that do not represent real-life activities, not developed using the target population, or not labelled to a high enough resolution to capture the ... -
A pilot study of impulse radio ultra wideband radar technology as a new tool for sleep assessment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Study Objectives: To validate Impulse radio ultra wideband pulse-doppler radar technology against polysomnography (PSG) for sleep assessment. Methods: In all, 12 participants were recruited and their overnight sleep was ... -
A pilot study to explore the composition of complex physical activity in adolescents
(Master thesis, 2018)Background: Data models have been developed to recognize common physical activity types (e.g., walking, standing, sitting) based on accelerometer. However, few data models have been developed to investigate whether complex ... -
A pilot study: investigating the physical activity pattern in children with cerebral palsy and typically developed children
(Master thesis, 2017)Background: There’s a concern that children today are too inactive, and technology makes it possible for children to reach out to their friends from the sofa, instead of standing up and walking out to meet them. Children ... -
A Prospective Population Study of Resting Heart Rate and Peak Oxygen Uptake (the HUNT Study, Norway)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Objectives: We assessed the prospective association of resting heart rate (RHR) at baseline with peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) 23 years later, and evaluated whether physical activity (PA) could modify this association. ... -
A randomised controlled study of the long-term effects of exercise training on mortality in elderly people: Study protocol for the generation 100 study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Introduction: Epidemiological studies suggest that exercise has a tremendous preventative effect on morbidity and premature death, but these findings need to be confirmed by randomised trials. Generation 100 is a randomised, ... -
