(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)During pregnancy, littermates compete to extract maternal resources from the placenta. Unequal extraction of resources leads to developmental differences among offspring and thus within-litter variation in offspring mass. ... -
Does new bicycle infrastructure result in new or rerouted bicyclists? A longitudinal GPS study in Oslo
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Well-connected bicycle infrastructure networks are widely accepted to be an important factor for increasing the level of bicycling in urban environments where motorised and active transport modes must co-exist. However, ... -
Does Norwegian Aid Reward Equitable Access to Health in Recipient States? Assessing a ‘Moral Superpower’s’ Aid to Pro-Poor Development, 1990–2019
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)We assess if Norwegian aid policies, widely heralded for being morally driven, rewards pro-poor governance. If higher levels of equitable access to health attracts higher levels of Norwegian aid, one might argue that ... -
Does occupational forward bending of the back increase long-term sickness absence risk? A 4-year prospective register-based study using device-measured compositional data analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Objective Forward bending of the back is common in many jobs and a risk factor for sickness absence. However, this knowledge is based on self-reported forward bending that is generally imprecise. Thus, we aimed to investigate ... -
Does occupational therapy delay or reduce the proportion of patients that receives thumb carpometacarpal joint surgery? A multicentre randomised controlled trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Objectives: To evaluate whether occupational therapy, provided in the period between referral and surgical consultation, might delay or reduce the need of surgery in thumb carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ) osteoarthritis and ... -
Does pain sensitivity change by migraine phase? A blinded longitudinal study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Objective: Studies suggest that pain thresholds may be altered before and during migraine headaches, but it is still debated if a central or peripheral dysfunction is responsible for the onset of pain in migraine. The ... -
