Investigating novel biomarkers of immune activation and modulation in the context of sedentary behaviour: a multicentre prospective ischemic stroke cohort study
Alme, Katinka Nordheim; Askim, Torunn; Assmus, Jörg; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Naik, Mala; Næss, Halvor; Saltvedt, Ingvild; Ueland, Per-Magne; Ulvik, Arve; Knapskog, Anne-Brita (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Sedentary behaviour is associated with disease, but the molecular mechanisms are not understood. Valid biomarkers with predictive and explanatory properties are required. Therefore, we have investigated traditional ... -
Is long-bout sedentary behaviour associated with long-term glucose levels 3 months after acute ischaemic stroke? A prospective observational cohort study
Alme, Katinka Nordheim; Knapskog, Anne Brita; Næss, Halvor; Naik, Mala; Beyer, Mona K.; Ellekjær, Hanne; English, Coralie; Ihle-Hansen, Hege; Kummeneje, Camilla S.; Munthe-Kaas, Ragnhild; Saltvedt, Ingvild; Seljeseth, Yngve Müller; Tan, Xiang chun; Thingstad, Pernille; Askim, Torunn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background and purpose Sedentary behaviour is a risk factor for vascular disease and stroke patients are more sedentary than their age-matched peers. The association with glucose levels, as a potential mediator, is ... -
Neopterin and kynurenic acid as predictors of stroke recurrence and mortality: a multicentre prospective cohort study on biomarkers of infammation measured three months after ischemic stroke
Alme, Katinka Nordheim; Ulvik, Arve; Askim, Torunn; Assmus, Jörg; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Naik, Mala; Næss, Halvor; Saltvedt, Ingvild; Ueland, Per-Magne; Knapskog, Anne Brita (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background Chronic low-grade inflammation is associated with both ischemic stroke and sedentary behaviour. The aim of this study was to investigate the predictive abilities of biomarkers of inflammation and immune modulation ...
