Check formation on the sagittal otoliths was examined to test ... -
Periodontal Health status and lung function in two Norwegian cohorts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-01-19)Rationale and objectives: The oral cavity is united with the airways, and thus poor oral health may affect respiratory health. However, data on the interaction of periodontal and respiratory health is limited. We aimed to ... -

(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009-10-14)Background: An important aim of antenatal care is to improve maternal health- and well being of which oral health is an important part. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of oral impacts on daily performances ... -
Periodontitis in obese adults with and without metabolic syndrome: a cross-sectional study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Epidemiological studies support an association between obesity, metabolic syndrome (MetS), and periodontitis. Still, understanding of the effects of low-grade inflammation in obese subjects on periodontitis and ... -
Periodontitis in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome: A nation-wide register study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The aim of this study was to compare the occurrence of periodontitis in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) and a non-Sjögren's patient group during a 7-year period from 2011 through 2017. In this population-based ... -
Periodontitis in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: A nation-wide study of 1990 patients
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background The aim of this study was to examine the association between systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and periodontitis in Norway during a 10-year period from 2008 through 2017. Methods In this population-based ... -
Periodontitis is associated with airflow obstruction in the Malmö Offspring Dental Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Aim To investigate the association between periodontitis and lung function in the Malmö Offspring Dental Study. Materials and Methods In all 1001 individuals (49.9% female, mean age: 44.6) from Malmö Offspring Dental ... -
