Human parvovirus B19 has been described as a causative agent of erythema infectiosum (a disease common in children), aplastic crisis in patients with hemolytic disorders, and arthralgias and arthritis. Joint involvement may be a prominent clinical feature of parvovirus B19 infection and may last for several weeks. We describe three cases of acute bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome associated with...
BACKGROUND Fetal infection by human parvovirus B19 is a common cause of fetal anemia, nonimmune hydrops fetalis, and spontaneous abortion and can result in fetal death. Recent improvements in diagnosing parvovirus infections and the availability of intrauterine transfusion have reduced the overall rate of fetal loss after maternal exposure. METHODS We report two cases of maternal parvovirus i...
This study was undertaken to provide first-time estimates for the seroprevalence of parvovirus B19 infection among daycare educators in Montréal, Canada, and to identify factors associated with seropositivity. A cross-sectional design was used. Directors and educators from 81 daycare centres (DCCs) were surveyed about DCC and personal characteristics respectively, and serum samples from 477 fem...
INTRODUCTION Human parvovirus B19 causes a wide range of complications in pregnant women including abortion, severe fetal anemia, non-immune hydrops fetalis, and even intrauterine fetal death. However, there is a dearth of information on the prevalence of the virus among pregnant women in southwestern Nigeria. METHODOLOGY Blood samples were collected from 231 pregnant women and screened for a...
background and aims: human parvovirus b19 may transmit to the fetus via the placenta during pregnancy and cause serious complications such as severe fetal anemia, non-immune hydrops fetalis, and even intrauterine fetal death. the aim of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of parvovirus b19 antibodies among young women, sanandaj, iran. materials and methods: ninety young women (15-40 ...
Clinical, biochemical and molecular evidence for the sickle cell anemia (SCA) crisis in Nigerian patients arising from parvovirus b19 infection remains inadequate. This study determined the prevalence and correlates of anti-parvovirus b19 antibodies in a population of SCA patients and non-SCA healthy controls in Lagos, Nigeria. In this prospective cross-sectional study, we enrolled 73 confirmed...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of human parvovirus B19 infection with the onset of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and its effect on TEL-AML-1 fusion gene and the presence of mutant P53. METHODS The case-control study was conducted at Basrah Hospital for Paediatrics and Gynaecology, Basrah, Iraq, from May 2009 to April 2010. A total of 100 blood samples were collected from 40 newly di...
Bovine parvovirus has been found to infect two cell strains: buffalo lung fibroblasts and embryonic bovine tracheal cells. Infectivity titers were best determined by plaque assays. Immunofluorescence studies revealed intranuclear staining, whereas complement fixation tests confirmed bovine parvovirus antigen production. These cell strains represent economical and convenient cell types which can...
Parvovirus B19 involvement was investigated in 30 children with severe aplastic anaemia. Active or recent parvovirus B19 infection, as shown by B19 DNA viraemia, positive B19 specific IgM antibodies, or both, was diagnosed in six patients. There were no other plausible causes. We suggest that parvovirus B19 infection might be associated with severe aplastic anaemia.
Parvovirus B19 infection can cause a wide spectrum of disease syndromes. Two cases of parvovirus B19 infection were identified that resulted in life-threatening myocarditis shortly after acute infection in immunocompetent individuals. The diagnosis was made with serological and polymerase chain reaction techniques. One patient was successfully treated by heart transplantation. Sequence analysis...
