      Bjørkavoll-Bergseth, Magnus; Erevik, Christine Bjørkvik; Kleiven, Øyunn; Eijsvogels, Thijs M. H.; Skadberg, Øyvind; Frøysa, Vidar; Wiktorski, Tomasz; Auestad, Bjørn; Edvardsen, Thor; Aakre, Kristin Moberg; Ørn, Stein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-08)
      Background Postexercise cardiac troponin levels show considerable interindividual variations. This study aimed to identify the major determinants of this postexercise variation in cardiac troponin I (cTnI) following 3 ...
    • Echocardiographic assessment of myocardial efficiency predicts exercise performance 

      Erevik, Christine Bjørkvik; Kleiven, Øyunn; Frøysa, Vidar; Bjørkavoll-Bergseth, Magnus; Chivulescu, Ana Monica; Klæboe, Lars Gunnar; Dejgaard, Lars; Auestad, Bjørn Henrik; Skadberg, Øyvind; Melberg, Tor Harald; Urheim, Stig; Haugaa, Kristina Ingrid Helena Hermann; Edvardsen, Thor; Ørn, Stein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)
      Cardiac function is a major determinant of cardiopulmonary fitness. This study aimed to determine if novel echocardiographic myocardial function and efficiency parameters at rest can predict exercise performance during ...
    • Regular consumption of cod liver oil is associated with reduced basal and exercise-induced C-reactive protein levels; a prospective observational trial 

      Hansen, Mette Wærstad; Ørn, Stein; Erevik, Christine Bjørkvik; Bjørkavoll-Bergseth, Magnus; Skadberg, Øyvind; Melberg, Tor Harald; Aakre, Kristin Moberg; Kleiven, Øyunn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-06)
      Background Dietary supplement use among recreational athletes is common, with the intention of reducing inflammation and improving recovery. We aimed to describe the relationship between omega-3 fatty acid supplement use ...
    • The relationship between workload and exercise-induced cardiac troponin elevations is influenced by non-obstructive coronary atherosclerosis 

      Bjørkavoll-Bergseth, Magnus; Erevik, Christine Bjørkvik; Kleiven, Øyunn; Wiktorski, Tomasz; Auestad, Bjørn Henrik; Skadberg, Øyvind; Aakre, Kristin Moberg; Eijsvogels, Thijs M. H.; Ørn, Stein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-05)
      The relationship between exercise-induced troponin elevation and non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is unclear. This observational study assessed non-obstructive CAD's impact on exercise-induced cardiac Troponin ...
