Vascular endothelial function assessed by flow-mediated vasodilatation in young adults born very preterm or with extremely low birthweight: A regional cohort study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Preterm birth and low birthweight have been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease in young adults. Endothelial dysfunction is established as an early marker for development of atherosclerotic ... -
Vascular normalisation as the stepping stone into tumour microenvironment transformation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)A functional vascular system is indispensable for drug delivery and fundamental for responsiveness of the tumour microenvironment to such medication. At the same time, the progression of a tumour is defined by the interactions ... -
Vegan diet and bone health—results from the cross-sectional RBVD study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Scientific evidence suggests that a vegan diet might be associated with impaired bone health. Therefore, a cross-sectional study (n = 36 vegans, n = 36 omnivores) was used to investigate the associations of veganism with ... -
Ventilator flow data predict bronchopulmonary dysplasia in extremely premature neonates
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Early prediction of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) may facilitate tailored management for neonates at risk. We investigated whether easily accessible flow data from a mechanical ventilator can predict BPD in neonates ... -
Ventilatory efficiency in children and adolescents born extremely preterm
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-07-13)Purpose: Children and adolescents born extremely preterm (EP) have lower dynamic lung volumes and gas transfer capacity than subjects born at term. Most studies also report lower aerobic capacity. We hypothesized that ... -
Vinorelbine and gemcitabine vs vinorelbine and carboplatin as first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC. A phase III randomised controlled trial by the Norwegian Lung Cancer Study Group
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Background: Platinum-based doublet chemotherapy is the standard first-line treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but earlier studies have suggested that non-platinum combinations are equally effective ... -
Viral diarrhoea in children under two years of age in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Clinical and molecular epidemiology
(Doctoral thesis, 2014-12-08)Introduction: Diarrhoeal disease is one of the leading causes of illness and death in children below five years, especially in developing countries. It is estimated to cause 0.7 million deaths among children younger than ... -
Virtual reality simulation training in stroke thrombectomy centers with limited patient volume—Simulator performance and patient outcome
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Virtual reality simulation training may improve the technical skills of interventional radiologists when establishing endovascular thrombectomy at limited-volume stroke centers. The aim of this study was to ... -
Visceral fat percentage for prediction of outcome in uterine cervical cancer
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Objective The prognostic role of adiposity in uterine cervical cancer (CC) is largely unknown. Abdominal fat distribution may better reflect obesity than body mass index. This study aims to describe computed tomography ... -
Vitamin B12 Deficiency (Un-)Detected Using Newborn Screening in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Untreated vitamin B12 (B12) deficiency may cause delayed development in infants. Several newborn screening (NBS) programs have reported an increased detection rate of B12 deficiency when second-tier dried blood spot (DBS) ... -
Vitamin D Deficiency is Associated with Increased Use of Antimicrobials among Preschool Girls in Ethiopia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03-07)Preschool children in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, are highly exposed to influenza viruses. Factors related to infections, nutrition, and environmental conditions that might explain the burden of influenza among these children ... -
Vitamin D levels, brain volume, and genetic architecture in patients with psychosis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-08-24)Background: Lower vitamin D levels are found in people with schizophrenia and depressive disorders, and also associated with neuroimaging abnormalities such as reduced brain volume in both animals and humans. Reduced whole ... -
Vitamin D predicts all-cause and cardiac mortality in females with suspected acute coronary syndrome: a comparison with brain natriuretic peptide and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)Vitamin D may not only reflect disease but may also serve as a prognostic indicator. Our aim was to assess the gender-specific utility of vitamin D measured as 25-hydroxy-vitamin D [25(OH)D] to predict all-cause and cardiac ... -
Vitamin D supplementation and its influence on musclestrength and mobility in community-dwelling olderpersons: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-02)Background: It has been suggested that vitamin D status or supplementation is important for maintaining or improving muscle strength and mobility in older adults. The study results, however, do not provide consistent ... -
Vitamin D Uptake in Patients Treated with a High-Dosed Purified Omega-3 Compound in a Randomized Clinical Trial Following an Acute Myocardial Infarction
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-07-24)Background: Fish is the natural dietary source of vitamin D. Reports on the influence of purified omega-3 fatty acids on its uptake are scarce. Objectives: We investigated the impact of a purified high-dose omega-3 compound ... -
Vitamin D, vitamin D binding protein, and longitudinal outcomes in COPD
(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 ... -
Vocal Cord Function During Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injury Assessed by Accelerometry and EMG
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-08-02)Objective Gradual impairment of nerve conduction is expected to be tightly associated with simultaneous gradual loss of vocal cord contractility, related to the fact that injured axons are connected to a defined number of ... -
