Sigrid Anna Aalberg Vikjord
Om
Sigrid Vikjord er lege i spesialisering i lungesykdommer ved St. Olavs hospital, og forsker ved HUNT forskningssenter. Hun er tilknyttet HUNTs lunge- og osteoporoseprosjekt samt HUNT COVID, og leder arbeidet med lungeprosjektet frem mot HUNT5 (2027-29). Hun er leder av forskningsgruppen BREATHE CAG, en klinisk akademisk gruppe som har som mål å møte de udekkede behovene i diagnostisering og behandling av astma og kols.
Vikjord disputerte ved NTNU i 2020 med avhandlingen "Hva påvirker utviklingen av kols?", som omhandlet forholdet mellom kols og komorbiditeter som osteoporose, angst og depresjon, med sykelighet og dødelighet. Hun er opptatt av statistiske metoder, inkludert ulike former for kunstig intelligens, med fokus på maskinlæring. Andre interesser er bl.a. Bayesiansk forløpsanalyse.
Vikjord er utdannet cand. med. fra universitetet i Pécs, Ungarn i 2015, og BSc i helseledelse og helseøkonomi fra UiO. Hun er aktivt medlem i flere internasjonale konsortier for klinisk og epidemiologisk lungeforskning, herunder CADSET og NSAN/Nordstar, samt osteoporoseforskning via FRAX-gruppen. Hun deltar i FHIs indikatorgruppe for NCD, og er medlem i Akademiet for yngre forskere (AYF) 2022-2026.
Forskning
Forskningsfokus:
- Klinisk og epidemiologisk forskning på obstruktive lungesykdommer (kols og astma).
- Epidemiologisk osteoporoseforskning.

Lung-function trajectories: relevance and implementation in clinical practice.
This review explores lung function trajectories across the life course, linking below-average paths to poor health outcomes. It proposes lung-function charts for monitoring health and introduces a free Lung Function Tracker for clinical use.
The HUNT study: Association of comorbidity clusters with long-term survival and incidence of exacerbation in a population-based Norwegian COPD cohort
This study identified five comorbidity clusters in COPD patients and found that some clusters had higher risks of mortality and severe exacerbations over a 25-year follow-up period, highlighting the importance of better disease phenotyping.
Changes in lung function in European adults born between 1884 and 1996 and implications for the diagnosis of lung disease: a cross-sectional analysis of ten population-based studies
This study found that lung function increased with birth year in European populations born between 1884 and 1996. This could lead to misclassification of lung function and underestimation of disease severity if diagnostic criteria are not updated.
