      Andreasen, Camilla; Dahl, Cecilie; Solberg, Lene Bergendal; Borgen, Tove Tveitan; Wisløff, Torbjørn; Gjertsen, Jan-Erik; Figved, Wender; Stutzer, Jens-Meinhard; Nissen, Frida Igland; Nordsletten, Lars; Frihagen, Frede; Bjørnerem, Åshild Marit; Omsland, Tone Kristin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Summary The purpose of this paper is to describe rates of forearm fractures in adults in Norway 2008–2019. Incidence rate of distal forearm fractures declined over time in both sexes. Forearm fracture constitute a ...
    • Estimating the future burden of hip fractures in Norway. A NOREPOS study. 

      Hagen, Gunhild; Magnussen, Jon; Tell, Grethe Seppola; Omsland, Tone Kristin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Background: The incidence rate of hip fractures seems to be declining in many western countries. However, due to the ageing of the population, the number of fractures may still be on the rise. No papers so far have quantified ...
    • High prevalence of vertebral fractures and low trabecular bone score in patients with fragility fractures: A cross-sectional 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 M; Gjertsen, Jan-Erik; Basso, Trude; Lund, Ida; Hansen, Ann Kristin; Stutzer, Jens-Meinhard; Dahl, Cecilie; Omsland, Tone Kristin; Nordsletten, Lars; Frihagen, Frede Jon; Eriksen, Erik Fink (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Purpose: Norway has among the highest incidence rates of fractures in the world. Vertebral fracture assessment (VFA) and trabecular bone score (TBS) provide information about fracture risk, but their importance have not ...
    • The Norwegian Capture the Fracture Initiative a stepped wedge cluster randomized 1 controlled trial of a Fracture Liaison Service model of care: The NoFRACT Trial Protocol 

      Andreasen, Camilla; Solberg, Lene Bergendal; Basso, Trude; Borgen, Tove Tveitan; Dahl, Cecilie; Wisløff, Torbjørn; Hagen, Gunhild; Apalset, Ellen M; Gjertsen, Jan-Erik; Figved, Wender; Hübschle, Lars Michael; Stutzer, Jens-Meinhard; Elvenes, Jan; Joakimsen, Ragnar Martin; Syversen, Unni; Eriksen, Erik Fink; Nordsletten, Lars; Frihagen, Frede Jon; Omsland, Tone Kristin; Bjørnerem, Åshild (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-12-07)
      Importance: Fragility fracture is a major health issue because of the accompanying morbidity, mortality, and financial cost. Despite the high cost to society and personal cost to affected individuals, secondary fracture ...
    • 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 to fracture site for secondary fracture prevention can therefore be of interest to ...
    • Urban–Rural Differences in Hip Fracture Mortality: A Nationwide NOREPOS Study 

      Solbakken, Siri Marie; Magnus, Jeanette H.; Meyer, Haakon E; Dahl, Cecilie; Stigum, Hein; Søgaard, Anne-Johanne; Holvik, Kristin; Tell, Grethe S.; Emaus, Nina; Forsmo, Siri; Gjesdal, Clara Gram; Schei, Berit; Vestergaard, Peter; Omsland, Tone Kristin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09-09)
      Higher hip fracture incidence in urban than in rural areas has been demonstrated, but urban–rural differences in posthip fracture mortality have been less investigated, and the results are disparate. Hence, the aims of the ...
    • Validation of forearm fracture diagnoses in administrative patient registers 

      Omsland, Tone Kristin; Solberg, Lene Bergendal; Bjørnerem, Åshild Marit; Borgen, Tove Tveitan; Andreasen, Camilla; Wisløff, Torbjørn; Hagen, Gunhild; Basso, Trude; Gjertsen, Jan-Erik; Apalset, Ellen Margrete; Figved, Wender; Stutzer, Jens-Meinhard; Nissen, Frida Igland; Hansen, Ann Kristin; Joakimsen, Ragnar Martin; Figari, Elisa; Peel, Geoffrey; Rashid, Ali A.; Khoshkhabari, Jashar; Eriksen, Erik Fink; Nordsletten, Lars; Frihagen, Frede; Dahl, Cecilie (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
