Circulating concentrations of biomarkers and metabolites related to Vitamin status, one-carbon and the kynurenine pathways in US, Nordic, Asian, and Australian populations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background: Circulating concentrations of biomarkers that are related to vitamin status vary by factors such as diet, fortification, and supplement use. Published biomarker concentrations have also been influenced by the ... -
Circulating cotinine concentrations and lung cancer risk in the Lung Cancer Cohort Consortium (LC3)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background Self-reported smoking is the principal measure used to assess lung cancer risk in epidemiological studies. We evaluated if circulating cotinine—a nicotine metabolite and biomarker of recent tobacco exposure—provides ... -
Circulating free testosterone and risk of aggressive prostate cancer: Prospective and Mendelian randomisation analyses in international consortia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Previous studies had limited power to assess the associations of testosterone with aggressive disease as a primary endpoint. Further, the association of genetically predicted testosterone with aggressive disease is not ... -
Circulating high sensitivity C reactive protein concentrations and risk of lung cancer: Nested case-control study within Lung Cancer Cohort Consortium
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Objectives: Inflammation may play an important role in lung cancer pathogenesis. Previous studies have suggested an association between C-reactive protein (CRP) as a marker of inflammation, and risk of lung cancer, but ... -
Circulating inflammatory cytokines and risk of five cancers: a Mendelian randomization analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background Epidemiological and experimental evidence has linked chronic inflammation to cancer aetiology. It is unclear whether associations for specific inflammatory biomarkers are causal or due to bias. In order to ... -
Circulating Levels of Inflammatory and Metabolic Biomarkers and Risk of Esophageal Adenocarcinoma and Barrett Esophagus: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Associations between circulating levels of obesity-related biomarkers and risk of esophageal adenocarcinoma and Barrett esophagus have been reported, but the results are inconsistent. A literature search until October 2018 ... -
Circulating markers of cellular immune activation in pre-diagnostic blood sample and lung cancer risk in the Lung Cancer Cohort Consortium (LC3)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Cell‐mediated immune suppression may play an important role in lung carcinogenesis. We investigated the associations for circulating levels of tryptophan, kynurenine, kynurenine:tryptophan ratio (KTR), quinolinic acid (QA) ... -
Circulating microRNAs as predictive biomarkers of myocardial infarction: Evidence from the HUNT study.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background and aims Several risk prediction models for coronary heart disease (CHD) are available today, however, they only explain a modest proportion of the incidence. Circulating microRNAs (miRs) have recently been ... -
Circulating sex hormones in relation to anthropometric, sociodemographic and behavioural factors in an international dataset of 12,300 men
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Introduction Sex hormones have been implicated in the etiology of a number of diseases. To better understand disease etiology and the mechanisms of disease-risk factor associations, this analysis aimed to investigate the ... -
Climate change and infectious diseases in the Arctic: Establishment of a circumpolar working group
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The Arctic, even more so than other parts of the world, has warmed substantially over the past few decades. Temperature and humidity influence the rate of development, survival and reproduction of pathogens and thus the ... -
Clinical aspects of cerebral palsy in Iceland: A population-based study of preschool children
(Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 493, Doctoral thesis, 2011)Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common motor impairment of childhood, affecting approximately 2 children per 1000 live births.1 Unfortunately, the rate in most areas has not changed during recent decades; therefore the ... -
