• Impact of Total Hip Replacements on the Incidence of Hip Fractures in Norway During 1999–2019. A Norwegian Epidemiologic Osteoporosis Studies (NOREPOS) Study 

      Kjeldgaard, Helena Kames; Meyer, Haakon Eduard; O’Flaherty, Martin; Apalset, Ellen Margrete; Dahl, Cecilie; Emaus, Nina; Fenstad, Anne Marie; Furnes, Ove Nord; Gjertsen, Jan-Erik; Hoff, Mari; Schei, Berit; Søgaard, Anne-Johanne; Tell, Grethe Seppola; Holvik, Kristin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The knowledge about why hip fracture rates in Norway have declined is sparse. Concurrent with decreasing hip fracture rates, the rates of total hip replacements (THRs) have increased. We wanted to investigate if hip fracture ...
    • Increased mortality in hip fracture patients living alone: A NOREPOS study 

      Dahl, Cecilie; Holvik, Kristin; Meyer, Haakon E; Stigum, Hein; Solbakken, Siri Marie; Schei, Berit; Søgaard, Anne Johanne; Omsland, Tone Kristin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Hip fracture is associated with excess mortality, persisting for many years after the fracture. Several factors may affect survival; however, the role of social support has been less studied. Living situation could be an ...
    • Individual Variation in Adaptive Immune Responses and Risk of Hip Fracture-A NOREPOS Population-Based Cohort Study 

      Dahl, Jesper; Holvik, Kristin; Heldal, Einar; Grimnes, Guri; Hoff, Mari; Finnes, Trine; Apalset, Ellen Margrete; Meyer, Haakon E (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Immune‐mediated bone loss significantly impacts fracture risk in patients with autoimmune disease, but to what extent individual variations in immune responses affect fracture risk on a population level is unknown. To ...
    • Post-Fracture Risk Assessment: Target The Centrally Sited Fractures First! A Sub-Study of NoFRACT 

      Borgen, Tove Tveitan; Bjørnerem, Åshild; Solberg, Lene Bergendal; Andreasen, Camilla; Brunborg, Cathrine; Stenbro, May-Britt; Hübschle, Lars Michael; Froholdt, Anne; Figved, Wender; Apalset, Ellen Margrete; Gjertsen, Jan-Erik; Basso, Trude; Lund, Ida; Hansen, Ann Kristin; Stutzer, Jens-Meinhard; Omsland, Tone Kristin; Nordsletten, Lars; Frihagen, Frede Jon; Eriksen, Erik Fink (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      The location of osteoporotic fragility fractures adds crucial information to post-fracture risk estimation. Triaging patients according tofracture site for secondary fracture prevention can therefore be of interest to ...
