      Iversen, Trond; Solberg, Tore; Romner, Bertil; Wilsgaard, Tom; Nygaard, Øystein Petter; Waterloo, Knut; Brox, Jens Ivar; Ingebrigtsen, Tor (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Background: Clinical examination of patients with chronic lumbar radiculopathy aims to clarify whether there is nerve root impingement. The aims of this study were to investigate the association between findings at clinical examination and nerve root impingement, to evaluate the accuracy of clinical index tests in a specialised care setting, and to see whether imaging clarifies the cause of chronic ...

    • Lumbosacral radiculopathy managed in multidisciplinary back clinics. Diagnostic accuracy, prognostic factors and efficacy of epidural injection therapy. 

      Iversen, Trond (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2015-10-27)
      The accuracy of individual clinical index tests used to predict imaging findings of nerve root impingement in patients with chronic lumbar radiculopathy is low when applied in specialized care, but clinicians’ overall evaluation improves diagnostic accuracy slightly. The diagnostic accuracy of individual index tests was low with no tests reaching positive LR >4.0 or negative LR <0.4. The overall ...

    • Outcome prediction in chronic unilateral lumbar radiculopathy: Prospective cohort study 

      Iversen, Trond; Solberg, Tore; Wilsgaard, Tom; Waterloo, Knut; Brox, Jens Ivar; Ingebrigtsen, Tor (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-02-07)
      Background: Identification of prognostic factors for persistent pain and disability are important for better understanding of the clinical course of chronic unilateral lumbar radiculopathy and to assist clinical decision-making. There is a lack of scientific evidence concerning prognostic factors. The aim of this study was to identify clinically relevant predictors for outcome at 52 weeks. <p>Methods: ...

    • Personlighetsendring hos foreldre og barn 

      Iversen, Trond (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-05-02)
      I denne oppgaven ble personlighetsendringer hos en kohort foreldre og barn fulgt med tre repeterte målinger, en måling ved inklusjon og en etter tre og seks års oppfølging. Målingene ble foretatt med spørreskjemaet NEO-PI som måler de fem (Big Five) personlighetsfaktorene nevrotisisme, ekstraversjon, åpenhet, medmenneskelighet og planmessighet. Det ble inkludert 219 personer, 113 kvinner (51,6 %), ...
