Controlled Attenuation Parameter in Healthy Individuals Aged 8–70 Years
Mjelle, Anders Batman; Mulabecirovic, Anesa; Olafsdottir, Edda Jonina; Gilja, Odd Helge; Havre, Roald Flesland; Vesterhus, Mette Nåmdal (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Purpose Controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) is a non-invasive method to assess the presence of liver steatosis. It has been evaluated in children and adults, mainly in either the obese or in subjects with suspected ... -
Factors predicting antibiotic prescription and referral to hospital for children with respiratory symptoms: secondary analysis of a randomised controlled study at out-of-hours services in primary care
Rebnord, Ingrid Keilegavlen; Sandvik, Hogne; Mjelle, Anders Batman; Hunskaar, Steinar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Objective: Acute respiratory infections and fever among children are highly prevalent in primary care. It is challenging to distinguish between viral and bacterial infections. Norway has a relatively low prescription rate ... -
Fluctuating biomarkers in primary sclerosing cholangitis: A longitudinal comparison of alkaline phosphatase, liver stiffness, and ELF
Fossdal, Guri; Mjelle, Anders Batman; Wiencke, Kristine; Bjørk, Ida Torunn; Gilja, Odd Helge; Folseraas, Trine; Karlsen, Tom Hemming; Rosenberg, William; Melvær, Giil Lasse; Vesterhus, Mette Nåmdal (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background & Aims Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a progressive liver disease characterised by fluctuating liver biochemistries and highly variable disease progression. The Enhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF®) test and ... -
Liver elastography in healthy children using three different systems - how many measurements are necessary?
Mjelle, Anders Batman; Mulabecirovic, Anesa; Havre, Roald Flesland; Olafsdottir, Edda Jonina; Gilja, Odd Helge; Vesterhus, Mette (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-21)Purpose Liver elastography is increasingly being applied in screening for and follow-up of pediatric liver disease, and has been shown to correlate well with fibrosis staging through liver biopsy. Because time is of the ... -
Liver Elastography in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis Patients Using Three Different Scanner Systems
Mjelle, Anders Batman; Fossdal, Guri; Gilja, Odd Helge; Vesterhus, Mette (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The aim of the study described here was to characterize three different liver elastography methods in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) patients, for the first time exploring 2-D shear wave elastography (2-D-SWE) in PSC ... -
Normal Liver Stiffness Values in Children - A Comparison of Three Different Elastography Methods
Mjelle, Anders Batman; Mulabecirovic, Anesa; Havre, Roald Flesland; Rosendahl, Karen; Juliusson, Petur Benedikt; Olafsdottir, Edda Jonina; Gilja, Odd Helge; Vesterhus, Mette (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-05)Objectives: Noninvasive tests for the evaluation of liver fibrosis are particularly helpful in children to avoid general anesthesia and potential complications of invasive tests. We aimed to establish reference values for ... -
Out-of-hours antibiotic prescription after screening with C reactive protein: A randomised controlled study
Rebnord, Ingrid Keilegavlen; Sandvik, Hogne; Mjelle, Anders Batman; Hunskaar, Steinar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Objective: To evaluate the effect of preconsultation C reactive protein (CRP) screening on antibiotic prescribing and referral to hospital in Norwegian primary care settings with low prevalence of serious infections. Design: ... -
Outcomes of antibiotic treatment for respiratory infections in children an observational study in primary care
Alvsåker, Linn Karin Tjalvin; Stensen, Maria Fehn; Mjelle, Anders Batman; Hunskaar, Steinar; Rebnord, Ingrid Keilegavlen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Background: Antibiotic resistance is an increasing global threat, accelerated by both misuse and overuse of antibiotics. Most antibiotics to humans are prescribed in primary care, commonly for respiratory symptoms, and ... -
Point Shear Wave Elastography and the Effect of Physical Exercise, Alcohol Consumption, and Respiration in Healthy Adults
Taraldsen, Victoria; Tomasgard, Sunneva; Rudlang, Margrethe Thune; Gilja, Odd Helge; Vesterhus, Mette; Mjelle, Anders Batman (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Purpose Ultrasound elastography is a noninvasive method for liver stiffness measurement (LSM) with the aim of reflecting approximate liver fibrosis load. Despite minimal evidence, current guidelines recommend 10 min of ... -
Validation of liver elastography in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis and healthy individuals. Normal values and correlation to fibrosis parameters.
Mjelle, Anders Batman (Doctoral thesis, 2021-01-08)Liver elastography applies ultrasound-based measurements of liver stiffness (LS), used as a quantification of liver fibrosis. Correlation between liver stiffness measurements (LSM) and histological stages of liver fibrosis ...
