• Cause-specific excess mortality after hip fracture: the Norwegian Epidemiologic Osteoporosis Studies (NOREPOS) 

      Holvik, Kristin; Ellingsen, Christian Lycke; Solbakken, Siri Marie; Finnes, Trine Elisabeth; Talsnes, Ove; Grimnes, Guri; Tell, Grethe Seppola; Søgaard, Anne-Johanne; Meyer, Haakon Eduard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-31)
      Background: Information on cause of death may help appraise the degree to which the high excess mortality after hip fracture reflects pre-existing comorbidities or the injury itself. We aimed to describe causes of death ...
    • Contribution of an extensive medication-based comorbidity index (Rx-Risk) in explaining the excess mortality after hip fracture in older Norwegians: a NOREPOS cohort study 

      Holvik, Kristin; Hjellvik, Vidar; Karlstad, Øystein; Gunnes, Nina; Hoff, Mari; Tell, Grethe Seppola; Meyer, Haakon Eduard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Objectives Patients with hip fracture are typically characterised by extensive comorbidities and excess mortality. Methods that account for a wide range of comorbidities are needed when attempting to identify causal ...

      From 1985 to 2016, the prevalence of underweight decreased, and that of obesity and severe obesity increased, in most regions, with significant variation in the magnitude of these changes across regions. We investigated ...
    • 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 (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 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 ...
    • Postvaccination immune responses and risk of primary total hip arthroplasty—A population-based cohort study 

      Rojewski, Sonia; Westberg, Marianne; Nordsletten, Lars; Meyer, Haakon Eduard; Holvik, Kristin; Furnes, Ove Nord; Fenstad, Anne Marie; Dahl, Jesper (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Objective To investigate the relationship between individual postvaccination immune responses and subsequent risk of total hip arthroplasty (THA) due to idiopathic osteoarthritis (OA) or rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Me ...
    • Resting heart rate, self-reported physical activity in middle age, and long-term risk of hip fracture. A NOREPOS cohort study of 367,386 men and women 

      Landgraff, Ida Kalstad; Meyer, Haakon Eduard; Ranhoff, Anette Hylen; Holvik, Kristin; Talsnes, Ove; Myrstad, Marius (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Enhanced knowledge regarding modifiable risk factors for hip fractures are warranted. We aimed to study the associations between two indicators of physical fitness (resting heart rate and level of physical activity) in ...
