Journal ArticleDOI
The analgesic effect of oxygen during percutaneous coronary intervention (the OXYPAIN Trial)
David Zughaft,Pallonji Bhiladvala,Anna Van Dijkman,Jan Harnek,Bjarne Madsen Hardig,Jonas Björk,Ulf Ekelund,David Erlinge +7 more
TL;DR: The results do not support routine use of oxygen and demonstrate any analgesic effect during percutaneous coronary intervention, and there was no difference in myocardial injury measured with troponin-t or in the morphine dose.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age is associated with increased mortality in the RETTS-A triage scale.
Toralph Ruge,Toralph Ruge,G Malmer,Caroline Wachtler,Ulf Ekelund,E Westerlund,P Svensson,Axel C. Carlsson +7 more
TL;DR: Compared to younger patients, patients above 60’years have an increased short term mortality across the RETTS-A triage priority level groups and this was most pronounced in the lowest triage level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cross-Sectional and Longitudinal Associations Between Physical Activity and Blood Pressure in Adolescence: Birth Cohort Study
Pedro C. Hallal,Samuel C. Dumith,Felipe Fossati Reichert,Ana Maria Batista Menezes,Cora Luiza Pavin Araújo,Jonathan C. K. Wells,Ulf Ekelund,Cesar G. Victora +7 more
TL;DR: Accelerometry-based PA was longitudinally inversely associated with diastolic BP, a finding not evident when analyzing self-reported PA at a given age, suggesting a possible underestimation of the association when using subjective data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cross-sectional and prospective associations between physical activity, body mass index and waist circumference in children and adolescents.
Knut Eirik Dalene,Sigmund A. Anderssen,Lars Bo Andersen,Lars Bo Andersen,Jostein Steene-Johannessen,Ulf Ekelund,Bjørge Hermann Hansen,Elin Kolle +7 more
TL;DR: To study the cross‐sectional and prospective associations between physical activity of different intensities, body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) in children and adolescents using isotemporal substitution modelling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fitness but not weight status is associated with projected physical independence in older adults.
TL;DR: Independent of their weight and WC status, unfit older adults are at increased risk for losing physical independence, and projected physical independence may be enhanced by a normal weight, a normal WC, or an increased physical fitness.
