Cerebrospinal Fluid Metabolome in Central Nervous System Infections: A Study of Diagnostic Accuracy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective To assess the diagnostic accuracy of metabolites in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for central nervous system (CNS) infections. Methods Patients were derived from three prospective cohort studies in the Netherlands. All studies included adults suspected of a CNS infection who underwent a diagnostic lumbar puncture.

Characterization of Neuropsychiatric Conditions in United States Resettled Refugees at a Single Academic Center

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Neuropsychiatric diseases are common among forcibly displaced persons, and a better understanding is needed to improve screening and treatment efforts. We performed a retrospective cross‐sectional study at a single academic center looking at neuropsychiatric diagnoses of United States resettled refugees presenting for their domestic medical examination.

Varicella zoster-associated progressive lower cranial and upper cervical polyneuropathy: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2022
Background Multiple cranial neuropathies carry a wide range of differential diagnoses, and when combined with cerebrospinal fluid monocytosis they often suggest an infective etiology. Reactivation of varicella zoster virus has been associated with a wide

Sustained Interferon Signature Suppression With Anifrolumab in a Patient With STING‐Associated Vasculopathy with Onset in Infancy Refractory to JAK Inhibitor and Dazukibart Therapy

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The objective was to report the safety and efficacy of an anti‐IFNAR1 antibody (anifrolumab) in a patient with STING‐associated vasculopathy with onset in infancy (SAVI) who presented with vasculitic ulcers and systemic inflammation refractory to JAK inhibition (JAKi) and to the interferon‐β–neutralizing monoclonal antibody dazukibart ...

HERPES ZOSTER AS FIRST MANIFESTATION OF VARICELLA-ZOSTER VIRUS INFECTION IN A HEALTHY CHILD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
O herpes zoster (HZ) resulta da reativação do vírus varicela-zoster (VVZ). A incidência aumenta com a idade, sendo raro em crianças saudáveis. Descrevemos um caso de HZ oftálmico numa menina de 29 meses, previamente saudável.

Varicella-zoster virus open reading frame 47 (ORF47) protein is critical for virus replication in dendritic cells and for spread to other cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1923
Varicella-zoster virus infects human dendritic cells (DCs). We found that VZV infection of DCs resulted in down-regulation of Fas expression on the surface of cells.

Differences in Dynamics of Specific Antinuclear Antibodies and Their Susceptibility to B Cell–Targeting Treatment in Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The presence of antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) is characteristic for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Antibody dynamics over time are thought to reflect the cellular source of ANAs and their therapeutic targetability. Anti–double‐stranded DNA (anti‐dsDNA) is the most prevalent and well‐studied of all ANAs, and fluctuations in anti‐dsDNA ...

Dendritic cells as Achilles’ heel and Trojan horse during varicella zoster virus infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Varicella zoster virus (VZV), a human alphaherpesvirus, causes varicella and subsequently establishes latency within sensory nerve ganglia. Later in life VZV can reactivate to cause herpes zoster.

Lineages of varicella-zoster virus

open access: yesJournal of General Virology, 2009
Relationships among varicella-zoster virus (VZV; Human herpesvirus 3) genome sequences were examined to evaluate descent of strains, structures of lineages and incidence of recombination events. Eighteen complete, published genome sequences were aligned and 494 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) extracted, each as two alleles. At 281 SNPs, a single
