Adherence to the Healthy Nordic Food Index and the incidence of acute myocardial infarction and mortality among patients with stable angina pectoris
Puaschitz, Nathalie Genevieve; Assmus, Jörg; Strand, Elin; Karlsson, Therese; Vinknes, Kathrine; Lysne, Vegard; Drevon, Christian A; Tell, Grethe S.; Dierkes, Jutta; Nygård, Ottar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-08-08)Background: The Healthy Nordic Food Index (HNFI) has been associated with beneficial effects on markers of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Whether such effects are present among patients with established coronary heart disease ... -
Association of dietary vitamin K and risk of coronary heart disease in middle-age adults: the Hordaland Health Study Cohort
Haugsgjerd, Teresa Risan; Egeland, Grace M.; Nygård, Ottar; Vinknes, Kathrine; Sulo, Gerhard; Lysne, Vegard; Igland, Jannicke; Tell, Grethe S. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Objective: The role of vitamin K in the regulation of vascular calcification is established. However, the association of dietary vitamins K1 and K2 with risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) is inconclusive. Design: ... -
Creatinine, total cysteine and uric acid are associated with serum retinol in patients with cardiovascular disease
Olsen, Thomas; Vinknes, Kathrine; Blomhoff, Rune; Lysne, Vegard; Midttun, Øivind; Dhar, Indu; Ueland, Per Magne; Svingen, Gard Frodahl Tveitevåg; Pedersen, Eva Ringdal; Drevon, Christian A; Refsum, Helga; Nygård, Ottar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09-09)Purpose: We hypothesized that biomarkers and dietary factors related to cardiovascular disease risk were associated with serum retinol and evaluated these potential associations in patients with suspected coronary artery ... -
Intake of carbohydrates and SFA and risk of CHD in middle-age adults: The Hordaland Health Study (HUSK)
Haugsgjerd, Teresa Risan; Egeland, Grace M.; Nygård, Ottar; Igland, Jannicke; Sulo, Gerhard; Lysne, Vegard; Vinknes, Kathrine; Bjørnevik, Kjetil Lauvland; Tell, Grethe S. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Objective: Limiting SFA intake may minimise the risk of CHD. However, such reduction often leads to increased intake of carbohydrates. We aimed to evaluate associations and the interplay of carbohydrate and SFA intake on ... -
The risk association of plasma total homocysteine with acute myocardial infarction is modified by serum vitamin A
Olsen, Thomas; Vinknes, Kathrine; Svingen, Gard Frodahl Tveitevåg; Pedersen, Eva Ringdal; Dhar, Indu; Tell, Grethe S.; Blomhoff, Rune; Ueland, Per Magne; Midttun, Øivind; Refsum, Helga; Nygård, Ottar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Background. Plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) has been implicated in the development of cardiovascular disease, but the mechanisms remain unclear. Vitamin A (Vit-A) is involved in homocysteine metabolism and we therefore ...
