Long-term impact of gastropexy on use of acid-reducing medication, second operations for gastroesophageal reflux and subjective reflux symptoms after sleeve gastrectomy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We investigated whether adding gastropexy to sleeve gastrectomy (SG) reduced gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in patients operated for severe obesity, assessed mainly by use of anti-reflux medication (ARM) and second ... -
Long-Term Outcomes of Invasive vs Conservative Strategies for Older Patients With Non–ST-Segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndromes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Background Non–ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) is a frequent cause of hospital admission in older people, but clinical trials targeting this population are scarce. Objectives The After Eighty ... -
Long-term prognosis in chronic primary glomerulonephritides
(Doctoral thesis, 2012-03-15)Chronic primary glomerulonephritides (CPGN) is a group of diseases characterised by leakage of proteins and/or erythrocytes into the urine with or without decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR), hypertension, oedema, ... -
Long-term Respiratory Outcomes of Extreme Preterm Birth. A regional cohort study
(Doctoral thesis, 2016-04-22)Background: Survival after extremely preterm (EP) birth has increased considerably during the last three decades. The lifetime respiratory prospects for survivors are unknown. Aim: To study long-term respiratory health ... -
Long-term temporal trends in incidence rate and case fatality of sepsis and COVID-19-related sepsis in Norwegian hospitals, 2008-2021: a nationwide registry study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Objectives: To estimate temporal trends in incidence rate (IR) and case fatality during a 14-year period from 2008 to 2021, and to assess possible shifts in these trends during the COVID-19 pandemic. Setting: All Norwegian ... -
Long-term treatment with the pan-PPAR agonist tetradecylthioacetic acid or fish oil is associated with increased cardiac content of n-3 fatty acids in rat
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-06-27)Background: Excess peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) stimulation has been associated with detrimental health effects including impaired myocardial function. Recently, supplementation with n-3 polyunsaturated ... -
