Adiposity, physical activity and neuromuscular performance in children
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)We investigated the associations of body fat percentage, objectively assessed moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), and different types of physical activity assessed by a questionnaire with neuromuscular performance. ... -
Body composition and mortality from middle to old age: a prospective cohort study from the UK Biobank
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: How the association between adiposity and the risk of death changes with age, and which is the optimal level of adiposity to reduce mortality in older ages, is still not completely understood. We aimed to ... -
Cross sectional analysis of the association between mode of school transportation and physical fitness in children and adolescents
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-07-17)Objective: To investigate the associations between body composition, cardiorespiratory and muscular fitness in relation to travel mode to school in children and adolescents. Method: Children and adolescents from 40 ... -
Cross-sectional and prospective associations between aerobic fitness and lipoprotein particle profile in a cohort of Norwegian schoolchildren
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background and aims: The associations between aerobic fitness and traditional measures of lipid metabolism in children are uncertain. We investigated whether higher levels of aerobic fitness benefit lipoprotein metabolism ... -
Diabetes susceptibility in ethnic minority groups from Turkey, Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Pakistan compared with Norwegians - the association with adiposity is strongest for ethnic minority women
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-03-01)Background The difference in diabetes susceptibility by ethnic background is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to assess the association between adiposity and diabetes in four ethnic minority groups compared ... -
Does objectively measured physical activity modify the association between early weight gain and fat mass in young adulthood?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background: Substantial evidence suggests that weight gain in early life is associated with increased adiposity and other metabolic disorders later in life. It is, however, unknown whether physical activity (PA) may modify ... -
Fitness but not weight status is associated with projected physical independence in older adults
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-05-05)Obesity and fitness have been associated with older adults’ physical independence. We aimed to investigate the independent and combined associations of physical fitness and adiposity, assessed by body mass index (BMI) and ... -
Fitness, fatness, and mortality in men and women from the UK biobank: Prospective cohort study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Cardiorespiratory fitness may moderate the association between obesity and all‐cause mortality (ie, the “fat‐but‐fit” hypothesis), but unaddressed sources of bias are a concern. Methods and Results: ... -
Increasing objectively measured sedentary time increases clustered cardiometabolic risk: a 6 year analysis of the ProActive study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-11-06)Aims/hypothesis: We aimed to quantify the associations between change in objectively measured sedentary and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) times and self-reported television viewing over 6 years and change ... -
Influence of parental overweight on the association of birth weight and fat distribution later in childhood
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Objective: To examine whether the association between birth weight and fat distribution in childhood is modified by parental overweight. Methods: Cross-sectional study of 728 Danish children aged 8–10 and 14–16 years. The ... -
Objectively measured physical activity and longitudinal changes in adolescent body fatness: an observational cohort study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-04-27)Background: The data regarding prospective associations between physical activity (PA) and adiposity in youth are inconsistent. Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate associations between ... -
Physical activity and mortality across levels of adiposity: A prospective cohort study from the UK biobank
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objective: To examine the combined and stratified associations of physical activity and adiposity measures, modelled as body mass index (BMI), abdominal adiposity (waist circumference), and body fat percentage (BF) with ... -
Physical activity in Norwegian children and adolescents: With a special focus on physical activity trends, health implications, correlates and determinants of physical activity
(Doctoral thesis, 2018)Introduction: In order to accurately assess the physical activity levels of children and adolescents and how it changes over time, there is a continuing need for population-based studies quantifying physical activity using ... -
Physical activity, sedentary behavior, and long-term cardiovascular risk in young people: A review and discussion of methodology in prospective studies
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-06)The long-term effects of physical activity (PA) or sedentary behavior on cardiovascular health in young people are not well understood. In this study, we use a narrative format to review the evidence for a prospective ... -
The physical behaviour intensity spectrum and body mass index in school-aged youth: A compositional analysis of pooled individual participant data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)We examined the compositional associations between the intensity spectrum derived from incremental acceleration intensity bands and the body mass index (BMI) z-score in youth, and investigated the estimated differences in ... -
Prospective association of adiposity and cardiorespiratory fitness with cardiovascular risk factors in healthy children
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-01-08)This study aimed to examine the prospective association of three different measures of adiposity and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) with 2-year change in cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in children. Two-year ... -
The independent prospective associations of activity intensity and dietary energy density with adiposity in young adolescents
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-01-13)There is limited evidence on the prospective association of time spent in activity intensity (sedentary (SED), moderate (MPA) or vigorous (VPA) physical activity) and dietary intake with adiposity indicators in young people. ... -
Tracking of clustered cardiovascular disease risk factors from childhood to adolescence
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-01-09)Clustering of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors has been found in children as young as 9 y of age. However, the stability of this clustering over the course of childhood has yet to be determined. The purpose of ... -
Youth screen-time behaviour is associated with cardiovascular risk in young adulthood: The European Youth Heart Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-07-05)Aims: We prospectively examined the association of TV viewing, computer use, and total screen time in adolescence, and change in these behaviours, with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in young adulthood. Methods ...
