Circulating trimethylamine N-oxide levels do not predict 10-year survival in patients with or without coronary heart disease
Bjørnestad, Espen Øglænd; Dhar, Indu; Svingen, Gard Frodahl Tveitevåg; Pedersen, Eva Kristine Ringdal; Ørn, Stein; Svenningsson, Mads Malm; Tell, Grethe Seppola; Ueland, Per Magne; Sulo, Gerhard; Laaksonen, Reijo; Nygård, Ottar Kjell (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is an amine oxide generated by gut microbial metabolism. TMAO may contribute to atherothrombosis and systemic inflammation. However, the prognostic value of circulating TMAO for ... -

The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of heart rate (HR) on exercise‐induced cTn increase by ... -
Endurance exercise training volume is not associated with progression of coronary artery calcification
Kleiven, Øyunn; Bjørkavoll-Bergseth, Magnus; Omland, Torbjørn; Aakre, Kristin Moberg; Frøysa, Vidar; Erevik, Christine B.; Greve, Ole Jacob; Melberg, Tor Harald; Auestad, Bjørn Henrik; Skadberg, Øyvind; Edvardsen, Thor; Ørn, Stein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Recent cross‐sectional studies have suggested a dose‐dependent relationship between lifelong exposure to physical activity and the burden of calcified coronary artery disease (CAD). No longitudinal studies have ... -
High-Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin I and T Response Following Strenuous Activity is Attenuated by Smokeless Tobacco: NEEDED (North Sea Race Endurance Exercise Study) 2014
Skranes, Julia Brox; Kleiven, Øyunn; Aakre, Kristin Moberg; Skadberg, Øyvind; Melberg, Tor Harald; Omland, Torbjørn; Ørn, Stein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Use of snus, a smokeless tobacco product, is increasing in Scandinavia. Strenuous physical activity is associated with an acute increase in high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin (swhs‐cTn) concentrations. Current ... -
The Localization and Characterization of Ischemic Scars in relation to the Infarct Related Coronary Artery Assessed by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance and a Novel Automatic Postprocessing Method
Woie, Leik; Engan, Kjersti; Eftestøl, Trygve; Larsen, Alf Inge; Ørn, Stein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Aims. The correspondence between the localization and morphology of ischemic scars and the infarct related artery (IRA) by use of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and a novel automatic postprocessing method. Methods and ... -
Myocardial Connective Tissue Growth Factor (CCN2/CTGF) Attenuates Left Ventricular Remodeling after Myocardial Infarction
Gravning, Jørgen; Ørn, Stein; Kaasbøll, Ole Jørgen; Martinov, Vladimir N.; Manhenke, Cord; Dickstein, Kenneth; Edvardsen, Thor; Attramadal, Håvard; Ahmed, Mohammed Shakil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-12-20)Aims: Myocardial CCN2/CTGF is induced in heart failure of various etiologies. However, its role in the pathophysiology of left ventricular (LV) remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI) remains unresolved. The current ... -
