Leadership style, headache, and neck pain the moderating role of the catechol-o-methyltransferase (comt) genotype
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Objective: Leadership styles can influence subordinates’ health. We investigated how the gene encoding the Catechol-O-Methyltransferase (COMT) enzyme (ie, COMT rs4680 Val158Met) influenced effects of abusive supervision ... -
Like a bridge over troubled water? A longitudinal study of general social support, colleague support, and leader support as recovery factors after a traumatic event
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017) -
Links between genetic groups, indole alkaloid profiles and ecology within the grass-parasitic Claviceps purpurea species complex
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)The grass parasitic fungus Claviceps purpurea sensu lato produces sclerotia with toxic indole alkaloids. It constitutes several genetic groups with divergent habitat preferences that recently were delimited into separate ... -
Lipogenic Potency of Individual Perfuorinated Alkyl Acids (PFAAs) and Persistent Organic Pollutant (POP) Mixtures at Human Blood‑Based Exposure Levels on Adipogenesis in 3T3‑L1 Cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In recent decades, the incidence of metabolic disorders has increased internationally. This increase has been linked to exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs), but little is known about the metabolic efects of ... -
Local up-regulation of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) following disc herniation is involved in the inflammatory response underlying acute lumbar radicular pain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Lumbar radicular pain after disc herniation may be associated with release of pro-inflammatory cytokines from nucleus pulposus (NP) tissue. In the present study we examined the role of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and cluster of ... -
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 ... -
Long-term sickness absence among young and middle-aged workers in Norway. The impact of a population-level intervention
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background The study objective was to evaluate the impact of a population-level intervention (the IA Agreement) on the of one-year risk for long-term sickness absence spells (LSAS) among young and middle aged workers in ... -
Loss of MKK3 and MK2 copy numbers in non-small cell lung cancer

Low back pain and physical activity. A 6.5 year follow-up among young adults in their transition from school to working life
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Background: The association between leisure time physical activity and low back pain in young adults is unclear and is in the need of prospectively obtained evidence. This study examined the course of low back pain and the ... -
Low Back Pain With Persistent Radiculopathy; the Clinical Role of Genetic Variants in the Genes SOX5, CCDC26/GSDMC and DCC
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In a recently published genome-wide association study (GWAS) chronic back pain was associated with three loci; SOX5, CCDC26/GSDMC and DCC. This GWAS was based on a heterogeneous sample of back pain disorders, and it is ... -
Low-voltage electrical accidents, immediate reactions and acute health care associated with self-reported general health 4 years later
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background and aims Electricians frequently experience low-voltage electrical accidents. Some such accidents involve long-term negative health consequences. Early identification of victims at risk for long-term injury may ... -
Lung cancer risk in never smokers of European descent is associated with genetic variation in the 5P15.33 TERT-CLPTM1L Region
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Introduction: Inherited susceptibility to lung cancer risk in never-smokers is poorly understood. The major reason for this gap in knowledge is that this disease is relatively uncommon (except in Asians), making it difficult ... -
Lung function in asphalt pavers: a longitudinal study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Purpose: To study longitudinal changes in lung function in asphalt pavers and a reference group of road maintenance workers, and to detect possible signs of lung disease by high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scans. ... -
Mapping of pituitary stress-induced gene regulation connects Nrcam to negative emotions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Environmental stressors such as repeated social defeat may initiate powerful activation of subconscious parts of the brain. Here, we examine the consequences of such stress (induced by resident-intruder paradigm) on the ... -
Maternal exposure to a human based mixture of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) affect gene expression related to brain function in mice offspring hippocampus
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Male and female mice pups were exposed to a low and high dose of a human relevant mixture of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) during pregnancy and lactation. Most compounds detected in the dams were found in offspring ... -
Maternal exposure to a human relevant mixture of persistent organic pollutants reduces colorectal carcinogenesis in A/J Min/+ mice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)An increased risk of developing colorectal cancer has been associated with exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and alteration in the gut bacterial community. However, there is limited understanding about the ... -
Maternal exposure to a mixture of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) affects testis histology, epididymal sperm count and induces sperm DNA fragmentation in mice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are widespread throughout the environment and some are suspected to induce reproductive toxicity. As animals and humans are exposed to complex mixtures of POPs, it is reasonable to ... -
Maternal exposure to psychosocial job strain during pregnancy and behavioral problems in the 11-year-old children. A Danish cohort study
