Herpesvirus and Adenotonsillar Hypertrophy in Chinese Children: An Epidemiological and Clinical Analysis [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the possible association between adenotonsillar hypertrophy (ATH) and herpesviral infections in children, and to examine correlations between specific viral detection and clinical characteristics. Methods We enrolled 43 children aged 3–14 years with ATH (mean age 76.56 ± 25.65 months; 31 boys).

Human herpesvirus 6 and human herpesvirus 7 in chronic fatigue syndrome [PDF]
We analyzed lymphocytes of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) for the presence of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) and HHV-7 DNA. HHV-7 was present in over 80% of CFS patients and healthy controls, while the prevalence of HHV-6 variant A increased significantly in CFS cases (22 versus 4%; P = 0.05).

Comprehensive Viral Detection and Profiling of Plasma Cell‐Free RNA in Patients With Suspected Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis [PDF]
ABSTRACT Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a severe, rapidly progressive disease. While viral infection is considered a common etiology of pediatric HLH, specific causative viruses other than the Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV) have been rarely identified.

HHV‐6–Positive Meningitis in an Immunocompetent Adult: Diagnostic Challenges in Distinguishing Active Infection From Chromosomal Integration: A Case Report [PDF]
ABSTRACT Consider human herpesvirus 6 (HHV‐6) in immunocompetent adults with viral meningitis when standard tests are negative. Qualitative CSF PCR requires cautious interpretation because it cannot exclude chromosomally integrated HHV‐6. Serial CSF improvement and rapid clinical recovery may support probable self‐limited infection and help avoid ...

Genome Sequence of Human Herpesvirus 7 Strain UCL-1 [PDF]
The sequence of human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) strain UCL-1 was determined using target enrichment and next-generation sequencing methods. We have identified 86 putative open reading frames (ORFs), and comparative sequence analyses demonstrate that this ...

Human herpesvirus 7 integrates into host telomeres via its telomeric repeat arrays. [PDF]
Human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7) is a ubiquitous betaherpesvirus and a causative agent of roseola infantum. HHV-7 harbors telomeric repeat arrays (TMR) identical to human telomeres at the ends of its genome.

Pityriasis rosea is associated with systemic active infection with both human herpesvirus-7 and human herpesvirus-6. [PDF]
Pityriasis rosea is a common skin disease that has been suspected to have a viral etiology. We performed nested polymerase chain reaction to detect human herpesvirus-7, human herpesvirus-6, and cytomegalovirus DNA in lesional skin, nonlesional skin ...
