Journal ArticleDOI

The association between TSH within the reference range and serum lipid concentrations in a population-based study. The HUNT Study.

TL;DR: It was found that increasing level of TSH was associated with less favourable lipid concentrations, and the associations with triglycerides and HDL cholesterol were stronger among overweight than normal weight individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Peak Oxygen Uptake and Cardiovascular Risk Factors in 4631 Healthy Women and Men

TL;DR: These data represent the largest reference material of objectively measured VO2peak in healthy men and women age 20-90 yr and showed that even in people considered to be fit,VO2peak was clearly associated with levels of conventional cardiovascular risk factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Change in body mass index and its impact on blood pressure: a prospective population study

TL;DR: An increase in BMI and a decrease in BMI were significantly associated with increased and decreased SBP and DBP, respectively, compared to a stable BMI in both genders and all age groups, although the strongest effect was found among those who were 50 y and older.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical Exercise, Body Mass Index, and Risk of Chronic Pain in the Low Back and Neck/Shoulders: Longitudinal Data From the Nord-Trøndelag Health Study

TL;DR: It is concluded that physical inactivity and high BMI are associated with an increased risk of chronic pain in the low back and neck/shoulders in the general adult population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between blood pressure and serum thyroid-stimulating hormone concentration within the reference range: a population-based study.

TL;DR: Within the reference range of TSH, a linear positive association between TSH and systolic and diastolic blood pressure that may have long-term implications for cardiovascular health is found.
