Circulating trimethyllysine and risk of acute myocardial infarction in patients with suspected stable coronary heart disease
Bjørnestad, Espen Ø.; Olset, Hilde; Dhar, Indu; Løland, Kjetil Halvorsen; Pedersen, Eva Ringdal; Svingen, Gard Frodahl Tveitevåg; Svardal, Asbjørn M.; Berge, Rolf K; Ueland, Per Magne; Tell, Grethe S.; Nilsen, Dennis W.T.; Jan E., Nordrehaug; Nygaard, Ellisif; Nygård, Ottar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background The carnitine precursor trimethyllysine (TML) is associated with progression of atherosclerosis, possibly through a relationship with trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO). Riboflavin is a cofactor in TMAO synthesis. ... -
Systemic Cardiac Troponin T Associated With Incident Atrial Fibrillation Among Patients With Suspected Stable Angina Pectoris
Vavik, Vegard; Pedersen, Eva Ringdal; Svingen, Gard Frodahl Tveitevåg; Solheim, Eivind; Aakre, Kristin Moberg; Tell, Grethe S.; Nygård, Ottar; Vikenes, Kjell (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Higher concentrations of cardiac troponin T are associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) and adverse cardiovascular prognosis. The relation with incident atrial fibrillation (AF) is less explored. We studied this ... -
Transsulfuration metabolites and the association with incident atrial fibrillation – An observational cohort study among Norwegian patients with stable angina pectoris
Svenningsson, Mads Malm; Svingen, Gard Frodahl Tveitevåg; Lysne, Vegard; Ueland, Per Magne; Tell, Grethe S.; Pedersen, Eva Ringdal; Dhar, Indu; Nilsen, Dennis W.T.; Nygård, Ottar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background/aim Plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) is elevated in patients with persistent vs. paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF), and has been related to increased risk of new-onset AF. Homocysteine is degraded to cystathionine ... -
Use of loop diuretics is associated with increased mortality in patients with suspected coronary artery disease, but without systolic heart failure or renal impairment: an observational study using propensity score matching
Schartum-Hansen, Hall; Løland, Kjetil Halvorsen; Svingen, Gard Frodahl Tveitevåg; Seifert, Reinhard; Pedersen, Eva Ringdal; Nordrehaug, Jan Erik; Bleie, Øyvind; Ebbing, Marta; Berge, Christ; Nilsen, Dennis W.T.; Nygård, Ottar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-06-01)Background Loop diuretics are widely used in patients with heart and renal failure, as well as to treat hypertension and peripheral edema. However, there are no randomized, controlled trials (RCT) evaluating their long ...
