Absence of HTLV-1/2 infection and dermatological diseases in Manaus, State of Amazonas, Brazil

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2014
Introduction The prevalence of human T-cell lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2 (HTLV-1/2) infection is heterogeneous across different populations. We tested the hypothesis that HTLV-1/2 infection occurs more often in dermatological patients.

Clinical characteristics and outcomes of infection with human T-lymphotropic virus in a non-endemic area: a single institution study

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionUnderstanding of human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV) remains largely based on epidemiologic and clinical data from endemic areas. Globalization has resulted in migration of persons living with HTLV (PLHTLV) from endemic to non-endemic areas ...
