Introduction: Herpes Simplex Virus type 2 (HSV-2)  is a highly prevalent sexually transmitted infection (STI) The prevalence of HSV-2 infection is increasing in many populations and geographic areas . Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is the cause of most genital herpes and is almost always sexually transmitted. Most HSV-2 infections are consequently expected to occur after the onset of sexua...

background herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 (hsv-1 and hsv-2) are common infectious agents worldwide. data on prevalence of hsv-1 and hsv-2 infections are limited in asia, especially in iran. our study aimed on determination of seroepidemiology of hsv-1 and hsv-2 infections in asymptomatic healthy students of islamic azad university of kazeroun, fars province, southwest of iran. patients ...

Abstract Viruses closely related to human pathogens can reveal the origins of infectious diseases. Human herpes simplexvirus type 1 (HSV-1) and 2 (HSV-2) are hypothesized have arisen via host-virus codivergence cross-species transmission. We report discovery novel simplexviruses during a large-scale screening fecal samples from wild gorillas, bonobos, chimpanzees. Phylogenetic analysis indicate...

Background Researching people with herpes simplex virus (HSV) is challenging because of poor data quality, low user engagement, and concerns around stigma anonymity. Objective This project aimed to improve collection for a real-world HSV registry by identifying predictors infection selecting limited number relevant questions ask new users determine their level risk. Methods The US National Heal...

background: herpes simplex virus (hsv) type 1 and 2 are common infectious agents worldwide. data on prevalence of hsv-1 and hsv-2 infection are limited in asia, especially in iran. the aim of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of hsv type 1 and 2 based on age, gender, marital status, education, living area, job, symptoms and history of disease variables. methods: the study populatio...

Background: Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) seroprevalence has been shown to be a potential sign of infection in pregnant women, and it could be applied to check HSV-2 transmission. This study evaluated the anti-HSV-2 IgG prevalence in pregnant women who were referred to health centers in Urmia, Northwest of Iran, during 2014-2015. Methods: Serum samples were collected from 86 pregnant wome...

Emergence of drug resistance and adverse effects often affect the efficacy nucleoside analogues in therapy Herpes simplex type 1 (HSV-1) 2 (HSV-2) infections. Host-targeting antivirals could therefore be considered as an alternative or complementary strategy management HSV To contribute to this advancement, here we report on ability a new generation inhibitor key cellular enzyme de novo pyrimid...

Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) with a worldwide distribution has been reported in all human populations, resulting in a clinical spectrum of infections. Although HSV type 2 (HSV-2) is known as the most common cause of genital herpes, an increasing number of cases with genital herpes are caused by HSV-1. The present study aimed to discuss the changes in the epidemiology of HSV-1 infection i...
