Association between generic and disease-specific quality of life questionnaires and mobility and balance among women with osteoporosis and vertebral fractures
(Aging Clinical and Experimental Research;23 (4), Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-08)BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The aims of this study were to assess correlations between two health-related quality of life (HRQOL) measurements, the Quality of Life Questionnaire issued by the European Foundation for Osteoporosis ... -
Can bone mineral density loss in the non-weight bearing distal forearm predict mortality?
(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 ... -
Effect of a resistance and balance exercise programme for women with osteoporosis and vertebral fracture: Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders;(2018) 19:100, Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-04-03)Background: Osteoporotic vertebral fractures are common, and are associated with reduced functioning and health related quality of life. The primary aims of this randomized controlled trial are to examine the immediate and ... -
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
(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
(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 ...
