Alterations in inflammatory markers after a 12-week exercise program in individuals with schizophrenia—a randomized controlled trial
Bigseth, Therese Torgersen; Engh, John Bjarne Abel; Andersen, Eivind; Bang-Kittilsen, Gry; Egeland, Jens; Falk, Ragnhild Sørum; Holmen, Tom Langerud; Mordal, Jon; Nielsen, Jimmi; Ueland, Thor; Vang, Torkel; Fredriksen, Mats (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: In individuals with schizophrenia, inflammation is associated with depression, somatic comorbidity and reduced quality of life. Physical exercise is known to reduce inflammation in other populations, but we ... -
Cardio-respiratory fitness is associated with a verbal factor across cognitive domains in schizophrenia
Holmen, Tom Langerud; Engh, John Abel; Andersen, Eivind; Andreassen, Ole Andreas; Martinsen, Egil Wilhelm; Bigseth, Therese Torgersen; Bang-Kittilsen, Gry; Egeland, Jens (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Abstract Objective We investigated whether the relationship between cardio-respiratory fitness (CRF) and cognition in schizophrenia is general, or due to selective relationships between CRF and specific aspects of cognitive ... -
Objectively Assessed Daily Steps—Not Light Intensity Physical Activity, Moderate-to-Vigorous Physical Activity and Sedentary Time—Is Associated With Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Patients With Schizophrenia
Engh, John Abel; Egeland, Jens; Andreassen, Ole Andreas; Bang-Kittilsen, Gry; Bigseth, Therese Torgersen; Holmen, Tom Langerud; Martinsen, Egil Wilhelm; Mordal, Jon; Andersen, Eivind (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)People with schizophrenia often have an unhealthy sedentary lifestyle with low level of physical activity and poor cardiorespiratory fitness—an important predictor of cardiovascular disease. We investigated the relations ... -
Physical activity pattern and cardiorespiratory fitness in individuals with schizophrenia compared with a population-based sample
Andersen, Eivind; Holmen, Tom Langerud; Egeland, Jens; Martinsen, Egil Wilhelm; Bigseth, Therese Torgersen; Bang-Kittilsen, Gry; Anderssen, Sigmund Alfred; Hansen, Bjørge Hermann; Engh, John Abel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Objective: Thorough description of objectively assessed physical activity (PA) and sedentary time in people with schizophrenia is lacking, and previous studies comparing PA and cardiorespiratory fitness levels with healthy ... -
The Association Between Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Cognition Appears Neither Related to Current Physical Activity Nor Mediated by Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor in a Sample of Outpatients With Schizophrenia
Holmen, Tom Langerud; Egeland, Jens; Andersen, Eivind; Mordal, Jon; Andreassen, Ole Andreas; Ueland, Thor; Bigseth, Therese Torgersen; Bang-Kittilsen, Gry; Engh, John Abel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Objective: We investigated whether levels of current physical activity (PA) contribute to the established relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and cognition in schizophrenia and whether brain-derived ...
