Bereavement in childhood and young adulthood and the risk of atrial fibrillation: a population-based cohort study from Denmark and Sweden
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background Adverse childhood life events are associated with increased risks of hypertension, ischemic heart disease, and stroke later in life. Limited evidence also suggests that stress in adulthood may increase the risk ... -
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 ... -
Even low level of physical activity is associated with reduced mortality among people with metabolic syndrome, a population based study (the HUNT 2 study, Norway)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Background Low levels of physical activity may increase the risk of developing metabolic syndrome, a cluster of metabolic factors that are associated with the risk of premature death. It has been suggested that physical ... -
Geriatric assessment with management for older patients with cancer receiving radiotherapy: a cluster-randomised controlled pilot study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Background: Geriatric assessment and management (GAM) improve outcomes in older patients with cancer treated with surgery or chemotherapy. It is unclear whether GAM may provide better function and quality of life (QoL), ... -
Healthy lifestyle change and all-cause and cancer mortality in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition cohort
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Background Healthy lifestyles are inversely associated with the risk of noncommunicable diseases, which are leading causes of death. However, few studies have used longitudinal data to assess the impact of changing lifestyle ... -
Investigating the causal interplay between sleep traits and risk of acute myocardial infarction: a Mendelian randomization study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background Few studies have investigated the joint effects of sleep traits on the risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). No previous study has used factorial Mendelian randomization (MR) which may reduce confounding, ... -
Mendelian randomization analysis of factors related to ovulation and reproductive function and endometrial cancer risk
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background Observational epidemiological studies suggest a link between several factors related to ovulation and reproductive function and endometrial cancer (EC) risk; however, it is not clear whether these relationships ... -
Multimorbidity and co-occurring musculoskeletal pain do not modify the effect of the selfBACK app on low back pain-related disability
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Abstract Background SELFBACK, an artificial intelligence (AI)-based app delivering evidence-based tailored self-management support to people with low back pain (LBP), has been shown to reduce LBP-related disability when ... -
Nut consumption and risk of cardiovascular disease, total cancer, all-cause and cause-specific mortality: A systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis of prospective studies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Background Although nut consumption has been associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality, data on less common causes of death has not been systematically assessed. Previous reviews ... -
Rehabilitation of executive function in chronic paediatric brain injury: a randomized controlled trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background Impaired executive functions (EFs, i.e., purposeful, goal-directed behaviour) cause significant disability after paediatric acquired brain injury (pABI) warranting efficient interventions. Goal Management Training ... -
