    • Abdominal aortic aneurysms : diagnosis and epidemiology : the Tromsø Study 

      Singh, Kulbir (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2005)
      Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a relatively common, potentially life-threatening condition roughly accounting for one percent of all the deaths in the western world. Abdominal aortic aneurysms are usually asymptomatic until rupture. Death from rupture is often sudden and the disease is prone to be misclassified as death from cardiac arrest. Since the introduction of surgical repair of AAA ...

    • Abdominal aortic aneurysms, or a relatively large diameter of non-aneurysmal aortas, increase total and cardiovascular mortality: the Tromsø study. 

      Forsdahl, Signe Helene; Solberg, Steinar; Singh, Kulbir; Jacobsen, Bjarne Koster (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2010)
      Background: In a population-based study in Tromsø, Norway, the authors assessed whether an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) or the maximal infrarenal aortic diameter in a non-aneurismal aorta influence total and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. Methods: A total of 6640 men and women, aged 25–84 years, were included in a 10-year mortality follow-up: 345 subjects with a diagnosed AAA and ...

    • A retrospective comparison of ultrasound-assisted catheter-directed thrombolysis and catheter-directed thrombolysis alone for treatment of proximal deep vein thrombosis 

      Tichelaar, Ynse Ieuwe Gerardus Vladimir; Brodin, Ellen Elisabeth; Vik, Anders; Isaksen, Trond; Skjeldestad, Finn Egil; Kumar, Satish; Trasti, Nora; Singh, Kulbir; Hansen, John-Bjarne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Background: Recent studies have suggested that catheterdirected thrombolysis (CDT) reduces development of postthrombotic syndrome (PTS). Ultrasound-assisted CDT (USCDT) might enhance the efficiency of thrombolysis. We aimed to compare USCDT with CDT on efficacy, safety, development of PTS, and quality of life after longterm follow-up. <p>Methods: We describe a retrospective case series of 94 ...
