Rotavirus infec*on Most common cause of viral gastroenteriks in small children. Fecal- oral route (also respiratory). Person- to- person. Contaminated water and food is less common. 10 12 virions/ml stool. 10 virions can start an infeclon. Good immunity. Rotavirus - symptom IncubaLon Lme: 2 days. Diarrhea in 3-8 days. AssymptomaLc carriers are common. Some children secrete rotavirus without having symptoms. Infected children can secrete rotavirus weeks before onset of symptoms. And for days a[er symptoms ceased. Rotavirus Scandinavia: Affects infants during winter. Approx. 1 000 hospitalized palents/yr. <1 death/yr. Annually and globally : Approx. 2 millions hospitalized palents/yr. 440 000 deaths/yr (low income countries). Vaccine is available. Rotavirus Mild symptoms before age of 3 months, probably due to proteclon by maternal anlbodies. Highest prevalence of rotavirus infeclon is between age 6 to 24 months. Age Have had infeclon < 6 months 17% of children 1 year 40% 2 years 75% Rotaviruses infect cells at the top of villi and impair their func*on. 3
Effects of rotavirus NSP4 protein on the gastrointes*nal epithelium Rotavirus NSP4 creates a channel in the ER-membrane thereby releasing Ca 2+. Sascha Kopic and John P. Geibel. Toxins 2010, 2, 2132-2157. Hyser J M et al. mbio 2010; doi:10.1128/mbio.00265-10. Rotavirus NSP4 protein is an enterotoxin 1) NSP4 inhibits the Na + - Glucose co- transporter that absorbs Na + and Glucose in mucosal cells. 2) This transporter is also used to reabsorb water. 3) NSP4 affects phospholipase C (PLC)- dependent calcium signaling. 4) NSP4 increases intracellular calcium levels that may induce Calcium- dependent export of Cl -. How Rotavirus causes diarrhea: 1) The virus infeclon kills mature mucosal cells in i the small inteslne. These are replaced with new cells that inilally have lower absorplon capacity (salt and water). 2) New, immature cells produce lower levels of di- sackaridases (malabsorplon of carbohydrates). 3) Rotavirus produces an enterotoxin (NSP4): slmulates water and chloride ion Cl - secrelon from the small inteslne. 4) The enteric nerve system is affected.

A new strain is making people miserable around the world this year (Jan 28, 2013). By Maggie Fox, Senior Writer, NBC News Noroviruses appear during the winter C alicivirus veckorapport vecka 7 Folkhälsomyndighetens rapport för vecka 7 visar att antalet rapporterade fall av norovirus ligger på samma nivå som veckan innan medan antalet sapovirusfall har ökat. Totalt rapporterades 209 fall av norovirus och 39 fall av sapovirus. Antalet sapovirusfall är det högsta antalet som rapporterats under de senaste fem säsongerna. Ökningen ses framför allt i Stockholm och Skånes län. Bland de smittade ses både barn och vuxna. Till skillnad från norovirus har sapovirus tidigare framför allt ansetts infektera små barn. Under senare år har dock denna skillnad i åldersfördelning hos de smittade inte varit lika tydlig. REUTERS/Lisi Niesner A har återigen ökat något. Det viktigaste rådet för att skydda sig från vinterkräksjukan är att vara noga med handhygienen. Tvätta alltid händerna efter toalettbesök och innan du äter eller hanterar mat. För att undvika att sprida smittan vidare är det viktigt att stanna hemma när man är sjuk samt ytterligare ett par dagar efter tillfrisknandet. Man kan sprida smitta under flera dygn även om man inte längre har några symtom. 2014- v7 Norovirus is very contagious Cases of laboratory confirmed norovirus infec*ons per eek in Sweden Fyndwav norovirus per vecka 600 550 Norovirus(2009,10 500 Norovirus(2010,11 Antal patienter 400 - Virus transmifed during symptomalc phase + days.
