Short-term lung function decline in tunnel construction workers.
Ulvestad B, Lund MB, Bakke B, Thomassen Y, Ellingsen DG. Ulvestad B, et al. Among authors: ellingsen dg. Occup Environ Med. 2015 Feb;72(2):108-13. doi: 10.1136/oemed-2014-102262. Epub 2014 Oct 30. Occup Environ Med. 2015. PMID: 25358744
Previous studies carried out in the 1990s showed that tunnel construction workers were at increased risk of both short-term and long-term lung function decline. Since then, efforts have been made to reduce exposure. The objective of the present study was to investig …

Review.
Four cognitive and motor performance variables each indicated significantly lower performances of exposed individuals when confounding was considered; slowed motor performances and deficits in attention and short-term memory were found. Performance on a single test was sig …

Pneumoproteins in sewage workers exposed to sewage dust.
Heldal KK, Barregard L, Larsson P, Ellingsen DG. Heldal KK, et al. Among authors: ellingsen dg. Int Arch Occup Environ Health. 2013 Jan;86(1):65-70. doi: 10.1007/s00420-012-0747-7. Epub 2012 Feb 17. Int Arch Occup Environ Health. 2013. PMID: 22350277 Free PMC article.
CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that exposed workers had lower serum concentration of CC16 as compared to the referents, which may reflect a long-term effect on secretion of these pneumoproteins. The positive association between exposure to bacteria and the serum concentrat …

Organophosphates in aircraft cabin and cockpit air--method development and measurements of contaminants.
Solbu K, Daae HL, Olsen R, Thorud S, Ellingsen DG, Lindgren T, Bakke B, Lundanes E, Molander P. Solbu K, et al. Among authors: ellingsen dg. J Environ Monit. 2011 May;13(5):1393-403. doi: 10.1039/c0em00763c. Epub 2011 Mar 14. J Environ Monit. 2011. PMID: 21399836
Different sampling methods were applied, including active within-day methods for OPs and VOCs, newly developed passive long-term sample methods (deposition of OPs to wipe surface areas and to activated charcoal cloths), and measurements of OPs in high-efficiency particulat …

A neurobehavioral study of chloralkali workers after the cessation of exposure to mercury vapor.
Bast-Pettersen R, Ellingsen DG, Efskind J, Jordskogen R, Thomassen Y. Bast-Pettersen R, et al. Among authors: ellingsen dg. Neurotoxicology. 2005 Jun;26(3):427-37. doi: 10.1016/j.neuro.2005.03.006. Epub 2005 Apr 26. Neurotoxicology. 2005. PMID: 15935213
However, the difference in the Digit Symbol Test scores between the two occasions was associated with the concentration of inorganic mercury in whole blood while they were still under exposure. The results suggest that no long-term effects of mercury vapor exposure are fou …

Iron status in manganese alloy production workers.
Ellingsen DG, Haug E, Ulvik RJ, Thomassen Y. Ellingsen DG, et al. J Appl Toxicol. 2003 Jul-Aug;23(4):239-47. doi: 10.1002/jat.913. J Appl Toxicol. 2003. PMID: 12884407
The aim of this study was to investigate markers of iron status in production workers with current and long-term exposure to manganese (Mn) alloys. A total of 100 Mn-exposed male workers were compared with 100 male controls matched for age in a cross-sectional study. ...
