General and abdominal obesity and incident asthma in adults: the HUNT study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Measures of body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference define general obesity and abdominal obesity respectively. While high BMI has been established as a risk factor for asthma in adults, waist circumference has seldom ... -
General practitioners ending their practice and impact on patients' health, healthcare use and mortality: a protocol for national registry cohort studies in Norway, 2008 to 2021
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Introduction Continuous general practitioner (GP) and patient relations associate with positive health outcomes. Termination of GP practice is unavoidable, while consequences of final breaks in relations are less explored. ... -

The genes controlling normal function of citrate and spermine secretion are lost in aggressive prostate cancer and prostate model systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)High secretion of the metabolites citrate and spermine is a unique hallmark for normal prostate epithelial cells, and is reduced in aggressive prostate cancer. However, the identity of the genes controlling this biological ... -
Genetic associations at 53 loci highlight cell types and biological pathways relevant for kidney function
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Reduced glomerular filtration rate defines chronic kidney disease and is associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. We conducted a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for estimated glomerular ... -
