Parental health literacy in parents of adolescents aged 16–19
Parental health literacy is crucial for adolescent health outcomes — particularly during late adolescence, when teenagers take on greater health responsibility. There is a need for further research into parental health literacy and how parents access, understand, appraise, and apply health information, as this is vital for assisting their adolescents in making well-informed health decisions. This study aims to provide a deeper understanding of ho…

Prevalence of mental distress and factors associated with symptoms of major depression among people living with HIV in Norway
For people living with HIV (PLHIV) who can access lifesaving treatment, HIV has become a chronic lifelong condition; however, PLHIV have more mental and somatic comorbidities than their HIV-negative peers. In this cross-sectional study, we assessed the prevalence of mental distress and identified factors associated with major depression among 244 well-treated PLHIV residing in Norway. Participants completed validated questionnaires covering menta…
Use of Over-The-Counter Analgesics Is Associated with Pain, Stress, and Quality of Life in Norwegian Adolescents
Introduction : Approximately 20% of Norwegian adolescents are frequently using Over-the-Counter Analgesics (OTCAs). The WHO emphasizes the need for research to identify the key determinants of health problems in adolescence. Thus, our aim was to describe and explore pain, stress, and Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) in Norwegian adolescents and investigate possible associations upon high/low usage of OTCAs. Methods : This cross-sectional st…
The relationship between gender, psychosocial factors, pain, health literacy and health-related quality of life in parents of Norwegian adolescents one year into the Covid-19 pandemic
One year into the COVID-19 pandemic, we identified a strong negative association between stress and mental HRQOL, while pain was strongly negatively associated with physical HRQOL
Norwegian and Swedish value sets for the EORTC QLU-C10D utility instrument
This study provides the first set of utility weights for the EORTC QLU-C10D specific to Norway and Sweden, reflecting the unique health preferences of these populations. The generated utility decrements can inform cost-utility analyses and optimize resource allocation in cancer care within the Norwegian and Swedish healthcare systems
Pain in Adolescence
The findings of this study demonstrated that sociodemographic factors such as high educational status in mothers and mothers working part-time were associated with lower pain in Norwegian adolescents. These findings highlight the importance of a holistic approach to pain management in adolescence
Health-related quality of life, health literacy and Covid-19-related worries of 16- to 17-year-old adolescents and parents one year into the pandemic
Our results indicate that the pandemic has a major negative impact on adolescents' HRQoL. Parents' HRQoL remained unchanged and comparable to previous studies. Our study demonstrates that HL, gender and COVID-19-related worries are significantly associated with adolescents' and parents' HRQoL, indicating that efforts aimed at increasing their HL might indirectly affect their HRQoL as well and that gender-specific interventions or strategies could…
Pain and health-related quality of life in adolescents and the mediating role of self-esteem and self-efficacy
Our findings highlight the complexity within adolescent pain, demonstrating that adolescents with pain differ from adolescents without pain when it comes to gender, school absence, factors within-person and between-persons. Longer pain duration makes adolescents more vulnerable. We confirm the importance of resilience factors for HRQOL but indicate that self-esteem is more important than self-efficacy. To promote HRQOL in adolescents with persist…
No deterioration in health-related quality of life in patients with axial spondyloarthritis followed for 5 years in ordinary outpatient clinics in the biological treatment era
Our ax-SpA outpatient clinic patients, with more patients treated with biologic drugs during the 5-year follow-up, did not deteriorate in HRQOL. In fact, the physical dimension in HRQOL improved over the years, as did measures reflecting disease activity. Our study adds evidence to the importance of suppressing inflammation to maintain and improve HRQOL in ax-SpA patients
Fun, influence and competence—a mixed methods study of prerequisites for high school students’ participation in physical education
Students selecting "Motion enjoyment" accrued less steps/day and reported overall more unhealthy lifestyle habits, including higher screen time, a more irregular meal pattern and a higher number were current smokers, compared to those selecting "Sports enjoyment". Program evaluation revealed that both groups of students valued competent PE teachers and having influence on the content of the PE program
Exploring the relationship between physical activity, life goals and health-related quality of life among high school students
Self-reported physical activity habits and life goals were associated with HRQOL to a limited extent. However, the perceived importance of life goals appears to reflect other aspects of individual well-being than HRQOL
Physical education Teachers’ and public health Nurses’ perception of Norwegian high school Students’ participation in physical education – a focus group study
The participants suggested that high school students' attitudes towards participation in physical education is heterogeneous, depends on the students' previous experiences, and on their present health and quality of life. All participants recommended adolescents to take part in program development, and selecting activities that generate competence, fun and enjoyment
Optimism and sense of coherence in mothers and fathers of children with cerebral palsy participating in an intensified habilitation programme
Background: To describe optimism and sense of coherence in mothers and fathers of preschool children with cerebral palsy (CP), before and after participation in an intensified habilitation program.Methods: Forty-five parents of preschool children with CP answered the Life Orientation Test (LOT) and sense of coherence questionnaire (SOC) twice during one year.Results: Parents of the youngest CP children and those with high stress levels reported r…
Predictors of health-related quality of life changes after lifestyle intervention in persons at risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus
Subjects at risk of type 2 diabetes report a clinically important reduction in HRQOL compared with general Norwegians. The best predictor of improved HRQOL was a small weight loss combined with a small improvement in aerobic capacity
