Update on viral encephalitis

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2001
Over 100 viruses have been associated with acute central nervous system infections. The present review focuses on some of the most common agents of viral encephalitis, as well as important emerging viral encephalitides. In this context, the initial detection of West Nile virus in the Western Hemisphere during the 1999 New York City outbreak, the first ...

Viral encephalitis

Journal of Neurology, 2005
Acute viral encephalitis may be caused by a wide range of viruses but the most important is herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) because of its severity, especially if untreated, and its good response to specific treatment with acyclovir. The outcome of any CNS viral infection is dependent on both the immune status of the host and the virulence of the ...

Acute Viral Encephalitis

Medical Clinics of North America, 1985
Clinical manifestations of acute viral encephalitis are described, differential diagnoses are outlined, and a diagnostic approach is recommended. Encephalitic syndromes caused by arboviruses, herpesviruses, enteroviruses, and parainfectious processes are discussed.

Viral encephalitis in children

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1996
Knowledge about the role of viruses in encephalitis and other diseases of the central nervous system has been greatly expanded since the advent of polymerase chain reaction testing. It is known that the spectrum of disease caused by herpes simplex virus, for example, is much wider than was previously recognized.

LaCrosse viral encephalitis mimics herpes simplex viral encephalitis

Pediatric Neurology, 2001
Temporal lobe abnormalities, findings commonly associated with herpes simplex virus encephalitis, were observed in a male 10 years of age found to have LaCrosse virus encephalitis. Diagnostic features included magnetic resonance imaging revealing abnormal signal intensity in the bilateral frontotemporal regions, and left-sided periodic lateralizing ...

A Viral NOD to Encephalitis

Journal of Virology, 2022
In this issue, Gao and colleagues (J Virol 96:e00167-22, https://doi.org/10.1128/JVI.00167-22 ) dissect innate immune signaling in a microglial cell line infected with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV). This virus has been designated a priority pathogen by the World Health Organization due to

Viral Encephalitis in the ICU

Critical Care Clinics, 2013
Viral encephalitis causes an altered level of consciousness, which may be associated with fever, seizures, focal deficits, CSF pleocytosis, and abnormal neuroimaging. Potential pathogens include HSV, VZV, enterovirus, and in some regions, arboviruses.

Treatment of Viral Encephalitis

Central Nervous System Agents in Medicinal Chemistry, 2009
Several viruses may cause central nervous system diseases with a broad range of clinical manifestations. The time course of the viral encephalitis can be acute, subacute, or chronic. Pathologically there are encephalitis with direct viral entry into the CNS in which brain parenchyma exhibits neuronal damaging and viral antigens and there are ...
