  1. 1. Herpes virus retinitis - clinical and virological characteristics

    Författare :Joanna von Hofsten; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cytomegalovirus retinitis; acute retinal necrosis; varicella zoster virus; herpes simplex virus;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we first aimed to determine whether there may be herpes virus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in the aqueous humour of asymptomatic individuals (paper II). Presence of herpes simplex virus (HSV), varicella zoster virus (VZV), cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein Barr virus (EBV) in aqueous humour was measured by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in patients eligible for cataract surgery.

    Sammanfattning : Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is ubiquitous and frequently infects normal individuals with few serious clinical consequences. However, patients with impaired cellular immunity frequently develop life-threatening opportunistic HCMV infections due to either primary infection or reactivation of latent virus. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Cytomegalovirus after allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation : complications in the era of CMV-specific antiviral treatment

    Författare :Kajsa Larsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation; cytomegalovirus; preemptive treatment;

    Sammanfattning : Since the start of treatment with allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT), cytomegalovirus (CMV) has been one of the most feared complications. With the help of different CMV-protective strategies, the frequency of CMV-disease before day 100 after SCT has decreased to 4-6%. LÄS MER
