Repeated social defeat promotes persistent inflammatory changes in splenic myeloid cells; decreased expression of β-arrestin-2 (ARRB2) and increased expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Previous studies suggest that persistent exposure to social stress in mammals may be associated with multiple physiological effects. Here, we examine the effects of social stress in rats, i.e. repeated social ... -
Killing two birds with one stone. How intervening when witnessing bullying at the workplace may help both target and the acting observer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objective This study examines under which conditions being an observer of bullying can be detrimental to health and well-being. It was hypothesized that health-related problems following observations of bullying are ... -
Associations of objectively measured total duration and maximum bout length of standing at work with lower-extremity pain intensity. A 2-year follow-up of construction and healthcare workers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background Musculoskeletal disorders are among the major reasons for years lived with disability. Approximately one third of the European working population report lower-extremity discomfort and many attribute these ... -
The effect of toll-like receptor ligands on energy metabolism and myokine expression and secretion in cultured human skeletal muscle cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Skeletal muscle plays an important role in glycaemic control and metabolic homeostasis, making it a tissue of interest with respect to type 2 diabetes mellitus. The aim of the present study was to determine if ligands of ... -
Better hearing in Norway. A comparison of two HUNT Cohorts 20 years apart
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objective: To obtain updated robust data on a age-specific prevalence of hearing loss in Norway and determine whether more recent birth cohorts have better hearing compared with earlier birth cohorts. Design: Cross-sectional ... -
Preventing and Neutralizing the Escalation of Workplace Bullying. The Role of Conflict Management Climate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Workplace bullying is, by definition, a gradually escalating process, theorized to occur from psychosocial stressors when there is a lack of management intervention in escalating conflicts, and a lack of fair and robust ... -
Work conditions and practices in Norwegian Fire Departments From 1950 until today. A Survey on factors potentially influencing carcinogen exposure
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Meta-analyses have shown firefighters to be at an increased risk of several cancer types. Occupational carcinogen exposure may explain these increased risks. This study aims to describe Norwegian fire departments' ... -
Associations between workplace bullying and later benefit recipiency among workers with common mental disorders
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Objective In this study, we examined exposure to workplace bullying as a predictor of registry-based benefit recipiency among workers struggling with work participation due to common mental disorders. Further, we examined ... -
A human relevant mixture of persistent organic pollutants induces reactive oxygen species formation in isolated human leucocytes: Involvement of the β2-adrenergic receptor
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Exposure to chlorinated (Cl), brominated (Br) and perfluoroalkyl acid (PFAA) persistent organic pollutants (POPs) is associated with immunotoxicity and other adverse effects in humans and animals. Previous studies on POPs ... -
Prenatal exposure to perfluoroalkyl substances modulates neonatal serum phospholipids, increasing risk of type 1 diabetes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In the last decade, increasing incidence of type 1 diabetes (T1D) stabilized in Finland, a phenomenon that coincides with tighter regulation of perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Here, we quantified PFAS to examine their ... -
Long-Term Exposure to Nanosized TiO2 Triggers Stress Responses and Cell Death Pathways in Pulmonary Epithelial Cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)There is little in vitro data available on long-term effects of TiO2 exposure. Such data are important for improving the understanding of underlying mechanisms of adverse health effects of TiO2 . Here, we exposed pulmonary ... -
Organizational prevention and management strategies for workplace aggression among child protection workers. A Project Protocol for the Oslo Workplace Aggression Survey (OWAS)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: Previous research has established exposure to workplace aggression as a significant risk factor for employee functioning, well-being, and health. However, less is known about effective prevention and management ... -
Adherence to self-managed exercises for patients with persistent subacromial pain. The Ad-Shoulder feasibility study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background Exercise is recommended for patients with subacromial pain. It has been suggested that good exercise adherence improves clinical outcomes. Despite this, little attention has been paid to the need for behavioural ... -
Novel methods for cold exposure of skeletal muscle in vivo and in vitro show temperature-dependent myokine production
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Proteins secreted from skeletal muscle serving a signalling role have been termed myokines. Many of the myokines are exercise factors, produced and released in response to muscle activity. Cold exposures affecting muscle ... -
Peripherally administered persistent organic pollutants distribute to the brain of developing chicken embryo in concentrations relevant for human exposure

Pain complaints after consecutive nights and quick returns in Norwegian nurses working three-shift rotation: an observational study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objectives To determine whether nurses working consecutive night shifts, or short transitions between shifts (quick returns (QRs)), yielded higher risk for pain complaints when compared with regular morning shifts. Sleep ... -
Hand-arm vibration exposure in rock drill workers. A comparison between measurements with hand-attached and tool-attached accelerometers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Objectives To assess the hazard of tool vibrations, we need valid exposure measurements. The use of hand-attached accelerometers (vibration sensors) to measure hand-arm vibrations (HAVs) has become a popular approach. ... -
Workplace bullying and sleep - A systematic review and meta-analysis of the research literature
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This systematic review and meta-analysis 1) clarifies and quantifies existing results on the association between exposure to workplace bullying and sleep, 2) evaluates the methodological quality of existing studies, 3) ... -
Pro-inflammatory effects of crystalline- and nano-sized non-crystalline silica particles in a 3D alveolar model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) are among the most widely manufactured and used nanoparticles. Concerns about potential health effects of SiNPs have therefore risen. Using a 3D tri-culture model of the alveolar ...
