C-C Motif Ligand 7 and C-C Motif Chemokine Receptor 3 Dysregulation in Patients With Scrub Typhus and Association With Mortality
Ueland T, Astrup E, Otterdal K, Lekva T, Janardhanan J, Michelsen A, et al.
J Infect Dis . 2024 Aug; 231(1):e59-e67. PMID: 39190223
Background: Scrub typhus, caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi, involves infiltration of a mixture of perivascular lymphocytes and macrophages into affected organs. We investigated if this is characterized by chemokine dysregulation. Methods:...

Canonical notch activation in patients with scrub typhus: association with organ dysfunction and poor outcome
Damas J, Otterdal K, Astrup E, Lekva T, Janardhanan J, Michelsen A, et al.
Infection . 2024 Mar; 52(4):1357-1365. PMID: 38502427
Purpose: The mechanisms that control inflammation in scrub typhus are not fully elucidated. The Notch pathways are important regulators of inflammation and infection, but have not been investigated in scrub...

Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in Norwegian schools during academic year 2020-21: population wide, register based cohort study
Rotevatn T, Larsen V, Johansen T, Astrup E, Suren P, Greve-Isdahl M, et al.
BMJ Med . 2023 Mar; 1(1):e000026. PMID: 36936575
Objective: To assess the risk of transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in schools in Norway mainly kept open during the covid-19 pandemic in the academic year 2020-21. Design: Population wide, register based...

When schools were open for in-person teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic - the nordic experience on control measures and transmission in schools during the delta wave
Rotevatn T, Nygard K, Espenhain L, Legarth R, Moller K, Sarvikivi E, et al.
BMC Public Health . 2023 Jan; 23(1):62. PMID: 36624496
Background: Extensive measures to control spread of SARS-CoV-2 have led to limited access to education for millions of children and adolescents during the COVID-19 pandemic. Education and access to schools...

Experience with open schools and preschools in periods of high community transmission of COVID-19 in Norway during the academic year of 2020/2021
Stebbings S, Rotevatn T, Larsen V, Suren P, Elstrom P, Greve-Isdahl M, et al.
BMC Public Health . 2022 Jul; 22(1):1454. PMID: 35907850
Background: Schools and preschools have largely remained open in Norway throughout the pandemic, with flexible mitigation measures in place. This contrasts with many other high-income countries that closed schools for...

School Closure Versus Targeted Control Measures for SARS-CoV-2 Infection
Rotevatn T, Elstrom P, Greve-Isdahl M, Suren P, Johansen T, Astrup E
Pediatrics . 2022 Mar; 149(5). PMID: 35274128
Objectives: To compare effects of school closures with effects of targeted infection prevention and control (IPC) measures in open schools on SARS-CoV-2 infection rates in students. Methods: We conducted interrupted...

Secreted Wnt antagonists in scrub typhus
Ueland T, Astrup E, Otterdal K, Lekva T, Janardhanan J, Prakash J, et al.
PLoS Negl Trop Dis . 2021 Apr; 15(4):e0009185. PMID: 33914733
Background: The mechanisms that control local and systemic inflammation in scrub typhus have only been partially elucidated. The wingless (Wnt) signaling pathways are emerging as important regulators of inflammation and...

Infection prevention guidelines and considerations for paediatric risk groups when reopening primary schools during COVID-19 pandemic, Norway, April 2020
Johansen T, Astrup E, Jore S, Nilssen H, Dahlberg B, Klingenberg C, et al.
Euro Surveill . 2020 Jun; 25(22). PMID: 32524956
In response to the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, most countries implemented school closures. In Norway, schools closed on 13 March 2020. The evidence of effect on disease transmission was limited,...

The fight to keep resistance at bay, epidemiology of carbapenemase producing organisms (CPOs), vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE) and methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in Norway, 2006 - 2017
Elstrom P, Astrup E, Hegstad K, Samuelsen O, Enger H, Kacelnik O
PLoS One . 2019 Feb; 14(2):e0211741. PMID: 30716133
Introduction: Scandinavian countries have traditionally had a low prevalence of resistant organisms, but have in recent years experienced a change in their epidemiology. We aim to describe the epidemiology of...

High serum CXCL10 in Rickettsia conorii infection is endothelial cell mediated subsequent to whole blood activation
Otterdal K, Portillo A, Astrup E, Ludviksen J, Davi G, Holm S, et al.
Cytokine . 2016 May; 83:269-274. PMID: 27180202
Background: The pathophysiological hallmark of Rickettsia conorii (R. conorii) infection comprises infection of endothelial cells with perivascular infiltration of T-cells and macrophages. Although interferon (IFN)-γ-induced protein 10 (IP-10)/CXCL10 is induced...
