    • Circulating microRNAs as predictive biomarkers of myocardial infarction: Evidence from the HUNT study 

      Velle-Forbord, Torbjørn; Eidlaug, Maria; Debik, Julia Barbara; Sæther, Julia Caroline; Follestad, Turid; Nauman, Javaid; Gigante, Bruna; Røsjø, Helge; Omland, Torbjørn; Langaas, Mette; Bye, Anja (Atherosclerosis;289, Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-10)
      Abstract Background and aims Several risk prediction models for coronary heart disease (CHD) are available today, however, they only explain a modest proportion of the incidence. Circulating microRNAs (miRs) have ...
    • Differential effects of bariatric surgery and lifestyle interventions on plasma levels of Lp(a) and fatty acids 

      Berk, Kirsten A.; Borgeraas, Heidi; Narverud, Ingunn; Mulder, Monique T.; Øyri, Linn Kristin Lie; Verhoeven, Adrie J M; Småstuen, Milada Cvancarova; Bogsrud, Martin Prøven; Omland, Torbjørn; Hertel, Jens Kristoffer; Gjevestad, Espen Svendsen; Nordstrand, Njord; Holven, Kirsten Bjørklund; Hjelmesæth, Jøran Sture (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Background: Limited evidence suggests that surgical and non-surgical obesity treatment diferentially infuence plasma Lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] levels. Further, a novel association between plasma arachidonic acid and Lp(a) ...
    • Novel biomarkers of cardiovascular disease: Applications in clinical practice 

      Lyngbakken, Magnus; Myhre, Peder Langeland; Røsjø, Helge; Omland, Torbjørn (Critical reviews in clinical laboratory sciences;56(1), Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-20)
      Measurement of biomarkers has revolutionized the work-up of patients with suspected cardiovascular disease. The most widely used contemporary cardiovascular biomarkers are the natriuretic peptides in the diagnosis and ...
    • Plasma marine n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and cardiovascular risk factors: data from the ACE 1950 study
