Clinical Significance of Human Herpesvirus 6 and 7 Infection in a Tertiary Hospital: a Case-Control Study

2022-08-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Human herpesviruses (HHV)-6 and HHV-7 are ubiquitous viruses with a global seroprevalence of around 90%, but their pathogenic significance remains unclear. <h4>Methods: </h4> For 2 years, at our center, the presence of HHV6 and 7 DNA was investigated by PCR assay in blood, CSF, or other fluids. Epidemiological and clinical variables were collected from these patients and compared with those o...
