Sex-Specific Limitations in Physical Health in Primary Adrenal Insufficiency
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Patients with primary adrenal insufficiency (PAI) suffer reduced quality of life (QoL), but comparisons with large-scale normative data are scarce. The clinical characteristics associated with reduced QoL are ... -
Sex-specific reference ranges of cerebroplacental and umbilicocerebral ratios: A longitudinal study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objectives: Observational studies have shown that low cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) values predict an increased risk of adverse perinatal outcome. The inverse ratio, i.e. the umbilicocerebral ratio (UCR), has been suggested ... -
Sex-specific responses in glucose-insulin homeostasis and lipoprotein-lipid components after high-dose supplementation with marine n-3 PUFAs in abdominal obesity: a randomized double-blind crossover study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background: Clinical studies on effects of marine-derived omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), mainly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and the plant-derived omega-6 (n-6) PUFA ... -
Sex-specific time trends in incident atrial fibrillation and the contribution of risk factors: the Tromsø Study 1994–2016
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Aims To explore sex-specific time trends in atrial fibrillation (AF) incidence and to estimate the impact of changes in risk factor levels using individual participant-level data from the population-based Tromsø Study ... -
Sexual activity and functioning in women treated for gynaecological cancers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-02)Aims and objectives. A description and comparison of sexual activity and function in relation to various gynaecological cancer diagnoses, treatment modalities, age groups, psychological distress and health-related quality ... -
Sexual dimorphism in selenium deficiency is associated with metabolic syndrome and prevalence of heart disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Serum selenium levels have been associated with the incidence of heart failure (HF) and signs of the metabolic syndrome. In addition, notable differences have been reported between males and females in food ... -
Sexual Inactivity During the Last 4 Weeks in Long-Term Cervical Cancer Survivors: Prevalence and Associated Factors
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Most studies of cervical cancer (CC) survivors describe sexual inactivity in relation to treatment modalities, but few consider that inactivity varies with age and partner status. Aim The aim of this study ... -
SGLT1 inhibition boon or bane for diabetes-associated cardiomyopathy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Chronic hyperglycaemia is a peculiar feature of diabetes mellitus (DM). Sequential metabolic abnormalities accompanying glucotoxicity are some of its implications. Glucotoxicity most likely corresponds to the vascular ... -
The SH3PXD2A-HTRA1 fusion transcript is extremely rare in Norwegian sporadic vestibular schwannoma patients
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Introduction Vestibular schwannoma (VS) is a benign intracranial tumor in which the underlying genetics is largely uncertain, apart from mutations in the tumor suppressor gene NF2. Alternative tumorigenic mechanisms have ... -
Shared etiology of type 1 diabetes and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis: a population-based twin study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Objective Type 1 diabetes and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis frequently cluster in individuals and in families, indicating shared origins. The objective of this study was to investigate familial co-aggregation of these diseases ... -
Shared genetic architecture between irritable bowel syndrome and psychiatric disorders reveals molecular pathways of the gut-brain axis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023-08-01)Background: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) often co-occurs with psychiatric and gastrointestinal disorders. A recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) identified several genetic risk variants for IBS. However, most of ... -
Shared genetic architecture between neuroticism, coronary artery disease and cardiovascular risk factors
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Neuroticism is associated with poor health, cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors and coronary artery disease (CAD). The conditional/conjunctional false discovery rate method (cond/conjFDR) was applied to genome wide ... -
Shared genetic architecture between schizophrenia and subcortical brain volumes implicates early neurodevelopmental processes and brain development in childhood
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Patients with schizophrenia have consistently shown brain volumetric abnormalities, implicating both etiological and pathological processes. However, the genetic relationship between schizophrenia and brain volumetric ... -
Shared genetic loci between depression and cardiometabolic traits
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-13)Epidemiological and clinical studies have found associations between depression and cardiovascular disease risk factors, and coronary artery disease patients with depression have worse prognosis. The genetic relationship ... -
Shared Genetic Loci Between Schizophrenia and White Blood Cell Counts Suggest Genetically Determined Systemic Immune Abnormalities
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background: Immune mechanisms are indicated in schizophrenia (SCZ). Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified genetic variants associated with SCZ and immune-related phenotypes. Here, we use cutting ... -
A short food frequency questionnaire to assess intake of seafood and n-3 supplements: validation with biomarkers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-11-19)Background: Seafood intake is associated with beneficial effects for human health. Seafood provides a number of nutrients beyond the traditionally known long chain marine n-3 fatty acids EPA, DPA and DHA, such as protein, ... -
Short-term activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors α and γ induces tissue-specific effects on lipid metabolism and fatty acid composition in male Wistar rats
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-06-12)Dietary fatty acids (FAs) affect certain metabolic routes, including pathways controlled by the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), but tissue-specific effects are not well-defined. Thus, the aim was to ... -
