Can bone mineral density loss in the non-weight bearing distal forearm predict mortality?
Hauger, Annette Vogt; Bergland, Astrid; Holvik, Kristin; Emaus, Nina; Strand, Bjørn Heine (Bone;Volume 136, 115347, Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-03-30)Purpose: Low bone mineral density (BMD) is associated with increased risk of fractures and mortality. We investigated if rate of BMD loss in the distal forearm over seven years predicted mortality. Methods: 1725 postmenopausal ... -
Do More Recent Born Generations of Older Adults Have Stronger Grip? A Comparison of Three Cohorts of 66- to 84-Year-Olds in the Tromsø Study
Strand, Bjørn Heine; Bergland, Astrid; Jørgensen, Lone; Schirmer, Henrik; Emaus, Nina; Cooper, Rachel (The journals of gerontology. Series A, Biological sciences and medical sciences;, Journal article; Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-10-11)Background: Evidence pertaining to whether more recent born generations of adults reaching old age have better physical capability than previous generations is scarce and inconclusive. We aimed to investigate birth cohort ... -
Osteoporosis and osteopenia in the distal forearm predicts all-cause mortality independent of grip strength: 22-year follow-up in the population-based Tromsø Study
Hauger, Annette Vogt; Bergland, Astrid; Holvik, Kristin; Ståhle, Agneta; Emaus, Nina; Strand, Bjørn Heine (Osteoporosis International;, Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-08-09)Mini-abstract: Low bone mineral density (BMD) gives an increased risk of fractures, which can lead to premature death. Can BMD of the wrist predict mortality? BMD consistent with osteopenia and osteoporosis gave a ... -
Physical capability, physical activity, and their association with femoral bone mineral density in adults aged 40 years and older: The Tromsø study 2015–2016
Hauger, Annette Vogt; Holvik, Kristin; Bergland, Astrid; Ståhle, Agneta; Emaus, Nina; Morseth, Bente; Strand, Bjørn Heine (Osteoporosis International;, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-04-16)Since muscles can influence bone growth and vice versa, we examined if level of physical activity and physical capability tests can predict areal bone mineral density (aBMD). Both high activity level and good test performance ...
