Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Is Associated with Low Levels of Vitamin D
Persson, Louise Jeanette Pauline; Aanerud, Marianne; Hiemstra, Pieter Sicco; Hardie, Jon Andrew; Bakke, Per; Eagan, Tomas Mikal (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-06-21)Introduction: COPD patients may be at increased risk for vitamin D (25(OH)D) deficiency, but risk factors for deficiency among COPD patients have not been extensively reported. Methods: Serum 25(OH)D levels were measured ... -
Comparison of inflammatory markers in induced and spontaneous sputum in a cohort of COPD patients
Tangedal, Solveig; Aanerud, Marianne; Persson, Louise Jeanette Pauline; Brokstad, Karl Albert; Bakke, Per S.; Eagan, Tomas Mikal (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-11-15)Background: Sputum induction is a non-invasive method for obtaining measurements of inflammation in the airways. Whether spontaneously sampled sputum can be a valid surrogate is unknown. The aim of this study was to compare ... -
Dynamic differences in dietary polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism in sputum of COPD patients and controls
van der Does, Anne M; Heijink, Marieke; Mayboroda, Oleg A.; Persson, Louise Jeanette Pauline; Aanerud, Marianne; Bakke, Per S.; Eagan, Tomas Mikal; Hiemstra, Pieter S.; Giera, Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Introduction: Disturbances in onset and resolution of inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are incompletely understood. Dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) can be converted into lipid mediators ... -
Predictors of exacerbations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease - results from the Bergen COPD Cohort Study
Husebø, Gunnar Reksten; Bakke, Per; Aanerud, Marianne; Hardie, Jon Andrew; Ueland, Thor; Grønseth, Rune; Persson, Louise Jeanette Pauline; Aukrust, Pål; Eagan, Tomas Mikal (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-10-03)Background: COPD exacerbations accelerate disease progression. Aims To examine if COPD characteristics and systemic inflammatory markers predict the risk for acute COPD exacerbation (AECOPD) frequency and duration. Methods: ... -
Sputum microbiota and inflammation at stable state and during exacerbations in a cohort of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients
Tangedal, Solveig; Nielsen, Rune; Aanerud, Marianne; Persson, Louise Jeanette Pauline; Wiker, Harald G; Bakke, Per S.; Hiemstra, Pieter S.; Eagan, Tomas Mikal (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09-17)Background: Exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are debilitating events and spur disease progression. Infectious causes are frequent; however, it is unknown to what extent exacerbations are caused ... -
Vitamin D, vitamin D binding protein, and longitudinal outcomes in COPD
Persson, Louise Jeanette Pauline; Aanerud, Marianne; Hiemstra, Pieter Sicco; Michelsen, Annika; Ueland, Thor; Hardie, Jon Andrew; Aukrust, Pål; Bakke, Per S.; Eagan, Tomas Mikal (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-03-24)Background: Associations between Vitamin D3 [25(OH)D], vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are previously reported. We aimed to further investigate these associations on ...
