      Bergland, Ola Undrum; Halvorsen, Lene Vernås; Søraas, Camilla Lund; Hjørnholm, Ulla; Kjær, Vibeke Norheim; Rognstad, Stine; Brobak, Karl Marius; Aune, Arleen; Olsen, Eirik; Fauchald, Ylva; Heimark, Sondre; Thorstensen, Christian W; Liestøl, Knut; Solbu, Marit Dahl; Gerdts, Eva; Mo, Rune; Rostrup, Morten; Kjeldsen, Sverre; Høieggen, Aud; Opdal, Mimi Stokke; Fadl Elmula, Fadl Elmula M. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Nonadherence to drugs is a challenge in hypertension treatment. We aimed to assess the prevalence of nonadherence by serum drug concentrations compared with 2 indirect methods and relate to the prescribed drug regimens in ...
    • Investigating a Potential Causal Relationship Between Maternal Blood Pressure During Pregnancy and Future Offspring Cardiometabolic Health 

      Wang, Geng; Bhatta, Laxmi; Moen, Gunn-Helen; Hwang, Liang-Dar; Kemp, John P.; Bond, Tom A.; Åsvold, Bjørn Olav; Brumpton, Ben Michael; Evans, David M.; Warrington, Nicole M. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Observational epidemiological studies have reported that higher maternal blood pressure (BP) during pregnancy is associated with increased future risk of offspring cardiometabolic disease. However, it is unclear whether ...
    • Metabolomics identifies placental dysfunction and confirms Flt-1 (FMS-like tyrosine kinase receptor 1) biomarker specificity 

      Austdal, Marie; Silva, Gabriela; Bowe, Sophie; Thomsen, Liv Cecilie Vestrheim; Tangerås, Line Haugstad; Bjørge, Line; Bathen, Tone Frost; Iversen, Ann-Charlotte (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Clinical end-stage parameters define the pregnancy disorders preeclampsia and fetal growth restriction while classification of the underlying placental dysfunction is missing and urgently needed. Flt-1 (FMS-like tyrosine ...
    • Relationship between Blood Pressure and Incident Cardiovascular Disease: Linear and Nonlinear Mendelian Randomization Analyses 

      Malik, Rainer; Georgakis, Marios K.; Vujkovic, Marijana; Damrauer, Scott M.; Elliott, Paul; Karhunen, Ville; Giontella, Alice; Fava, Cristiano; Hellwege, Jacklyn N.; Shuey, Megan M.; Edwards, Todd L.; Rogne, Tormod; Åsvold, Bjørn Olav; Brumpton, Ben Michael; Burgess, Stephen; Dichgans, Martin; Gill, Dipender (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Observational studies exploring whether there is a nonlinear effect of blood pressure on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk are hindered by confounding. This limitation can be overcome by leveraging randomly allocated genetic ...
    • Risk of Hypertensive Disorders in Pregnancy After Fresh and Frozen Embryo Transfer in Assisted Reproduction: A Population-Based Cohort Study With Within-Sibship Analysis 

      Petersen, Sindre Hoff; Westvik-Johari, Kjersti; Spangmose, Anne Lærke; Pinborg, Anja Bisgaard; Romundstad, Liv Bente Bergem; Bergh, Christina; Åsvold, Bjørn Olav; Gissler, Mika; Tiitinen, Aila; Wennerholm, Ulla-Britt; Opdahl, Signe (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Background: Frozen embryo transfer (frozen-ET) is increasingly common because of improved cryopreservation methods and elective freezing of all embryos. Frozen-ET is associated with higher risk of hypertensive disorders ...
