Seroprevalence of human T lymphotropic virus antibodies among healthy blood donors at a tertiary centre in Lagos, Nigeria [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction: Transmission of human T-lymphotropic viruses (HTLV) occurs from mother to child, by sexual contact and blood transfusion. Presently, in most centres in Nigeria, there is no routine pre-transfusion screening for HTLV.

Risk factors and epidemiology of human T-lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2 in US blood donors [PDF]

Retrovirology, 2015
Blood donations in the US are routinely screened for markers of human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV). Seroprevalence and risk factors associated with HTLV-1 and -2 infection from the US Retrovirus Epidemiology Donor Study (REDS-II) Transfusion-Transmitted Viral Infection (TTVI) Rate and Risk Factor Study are reported.

The prevalence of human T‐lymphotropic virus type 1 & 2 (HTLV‐1/2) in South African blood donors

Vox Sanguinis, 2019
Background and objectivesDonated blood is not currently screened for human T‐cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV) in South Africa. Several small studies have detected HTLV‐1 in South Africa, but prevalence by geographic region or population group is unavailable.Materials and MethodsWe performed a large seroprevalence study of South African blood donors ...

Infection with human T-lymphotropic virus types-1 and -2 (HTLV-1 and -2): Implications for blood transfusion safety [PDF]

Transfusion Clinique et Biologique, 2016
Many countries currently perform antibody screening for HTLV-1 infection in blood donors, and this intervention is likely cost-effective in preventing HTLV-1 related diseases in high prevalence countries. However, a number of high-income countries with low prevalence of HTLV-1 infection also perform universal HTLV-1 screening and debate has arisen ...
