BACKGROUND Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is a widely disseminated lymphotropic herpes virus implicated in benign and malignant disorders. In transplant patients, immunosuppressive drugs (cyclosporine) diminish control of EBV replication, potentially leading to lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD). Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients have impaired control of EBV infection and have EBV load ten times hi...

Epstein-Barr virus (human herpesvirus-4) is very common virus that can be detected in more than 95% of the human population. Most people are asymptomatic and live their entire lives in a chronically infected state (IgG positive). However, in some populations, the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been involved in the occurrence of a wide range of B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders (LPDs), includin...

Infection-induced acute hepatitis complicated with acute pancreatitis is associated with hepatitis A virus, hepatitis B virus or hepatitis E virus. Although rare, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection should be considered also in the differential diagnosis if the patient has acute hepatitis combined with pancreatitis. We report a case of EBV infection with cholestatic hepatitis and pancreatitis wi...

 An elegant study reported dysmorphic cells and syncytia in deceased's lungs for COVID-19. The authors reasonably considered that most of these syncytia-forming were pneumocytes, as identified by specific biomarkers. However, cellular dysmorphism are pathological features common other respiratory infections caused different viruses, including human syncytial virus (HRSV) Epst...

A case of Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) meningoencephalitis in a 74-year-old white man with rheumatoid arthritis is reported. The potential predisposing factors for EBV meningoencephalitis, the diagnostic approach and the management highlighted by this case are discussed.

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a member of the human herpes family and was discovered in cultured cells of Burkitt lymphoma as the first human tumor virus. It has been found to be associated with numbers of tumors, including Hodgkin lymphoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and gastric carcinoma and so on. Besides tumors, EBV also can cause infectious diseases. Infectious mononucleosis, chronic active E...

epstein-barr virus (ebv) is a ubiquitous human -herpesvirus that infects about 95% of the adult population. the majority of primary infections occurs in early childhood and is generally subclinical; it can cause infectious mononucleosis (im), which is usually a self-limiting lymphoproliferative disorder. however, infection of ebv occasionally results in severe, often lethal diseases, which inc...

Abstract Objectives This study aimed to compare the clinical features and laboratory tests of infectious mononucleosis (IM) hemophagocytic syndrome (HLH) caused by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in 1–3-year-old children explore risk factor HLH EBV (EBV-HLH). Methods The data 92 with infection admitted our hospital from 2011 2019 were collected; 61 cases diagnosed as EBV-IM, 31 EBV-HLH. subjects’ mani...

Epidemiological data suggest that the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is associated with several autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. However, it is not clear whether EBV plays a role in the pathogenesis of these diseases, and if so, by which mechanisms the virus may contribute. In this review, we discuss possible viral and immunologic...
