(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-11)
      Background - Epidemiological and experimental evidence has linked chronic inflammation to cancer aetiology. It is unclear whether associations for specific inflammatory biomarkers are causal or due to bias. In order to examine whether altered genetically predicted concentration of circulating cytokines are associated with cancer development, we performed a two-sample Mendelian randomisation (MR) ...

    • Obesity does not protect from subarachnoid haemorrhage: Pooled analysis of 3 large prospective Nordic cohorts 

      Rautalin, Ilari; Kaprio, Jaakko; Ingebrigtsen, Tor; Jousilahti, Pekka; Løchen, Maja-Lisa; Romundstad, Pål Richard; Salomaa, Veikko; Vik, Anne; Wilsgaard, Tom; Mathiesen, Ellisiv B.; Sandvei, Marie Søfteland; Korja, Miikka (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-10)
      Background and purpose: Several population-based cohort studies have related higher body mass index (BMI) to a decreased risk of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The main objective of our study was to investigate whether the previously reported inverse association can be explained by modifying effects of the most important risk factors of SAH—smoking and hypertension.<p> <p>Methods: We conducted ...

      Large consortia have revealed hundreds of genetic loci associated with anthropometric traits, one trait at a time. We examined whether genetic variants affect body shape as a composite phenotype that is represented by a combination of anthropometric traits. We developed an approach that calculates averaged PCs (AvPCs) representing body shape derived from six anthropometric traits (body mass index, ...

      Aims - Atrial fibrillation (AF) is becoming increasingly common. Traditional cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) do not explain all AF cases. Blood-based biomarkers reflecting cardiac injury such as high-sensitivity troponin I (hsTnI) may help close this gap.<p> <p>Methods - We investigated the predictive ability of hsTnI for incident AF in 45,298 participants (median age 51.4 years, 45.0% men) ...

      Common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are predicted to collectively explain 40–50% of phenotypic variation in human height, but identifying the specifc variants and associated regions requires huge sample sizes1 . Here, using data from a genome-wide association study of 5.4 million individuals of diverse ancestries, we show that 12,111 independent SNPs that are signifcantly associated ...

      To assess whether anthropometric measures (body mass index [BMI], waist-hip ratio [WHR], and estimated fat mass [EFM]) are independently associated with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), and to assess their added prognostic value compared with serum total-cholesterol. The study population comprised 109,509 individuals (53% men) from the MORGAM-Project, aged 19–97 years, without established ...

      The added value of incorporating information from repeated blood pressure and cholesterol measurements to predict cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk has not been rigorously assessed. We used data on 191,445 adults from the Emerging Risk Factors Collaboration (38 cohorts from 17 countries with data encompassing 1962–2014) with more than 1 million measurements of systolic blood pressure, total ...
