Linde, Anja G; Gerdts, Eva; Tveit, Kåre Steinar; Kringeland, Ester Anne; Midtbø, Helga Bergljot (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We explored the association between subclinical cardiac organ damage (OD) with comorbidities and psoriasis severity in 53 psoriasis patients on infliximab treatment (age 47 ± 15 years, 30% women) and 99 controls without ... -
Total coronary atherosclerotic plaque burden is associated with myocardial ischemia in non-obstructive coronary artery disease
Eskerud, Ingeborg; Gerdts, Eva; Larsen, Terje Hjalmar; Simon, Judit; Maurovich-Horvat, Pál; Lønnebakken, Mai Tone (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Aim Whether the total coronary atherosclerotic plaque burden is independently associated with myocardial ischemia in non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is not well established. We aimed to test the association ...
