Whereas no disease has been firmly associated with HHV-6A, variant B causes febrile illness in young children and is pathogenic in immunosuppressed transplant recipients. Chromosomally integrated HHV-6 (with either variant A or B) occurs in a minority of people. This phenomenon has the potential to confound the diagnosis of active HHV-6 infection, since chromosomally integrated HHV-6 DNA sequences are inherited through the germline. Therefore, viral DNA is in every nucleated cell in the body and can be found in a range of body fluids including whole blood, serum, plasma and cerebrospinal fluid. There are characteristically very high viral loads in whole blood (> 6 log10 HHV-6 genomes/ml) and serum (5 log10 HHV-6 genomes/ml); these can be used to differentiate individuals with viral chromosomal integration from those with active HHV-6 infection, where viral loads are significantly lower. Increasingly, the polymerase chain reaction (to detect viral nucleic acid) is used for diagnosis; therefore, it is important to exclude HHV-6 chromosomal integration before concluding that there is evidence of active HHV-6 infection.</p>","PeriodicalId":83725,"journal":{"name":"Herpes : the journal of the IHMF","volume":"15 2","pages":"28-32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"28457551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, CMV retinitis represents a significant portion of end-organ disease in patients with CMV and AIDS. Prior to the advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), almost one-third of people with AIDS developed CMV retinitis during their lifetime. Although effective therapies for CMV infection had been developed, treatment was often life-long due to persistent immune deficiency. Despite chronic suppressive maintenance therapy, disease relapse was nearly universal, and development of drug resistance was not uncommon. Widespread use of HAART has reduced the incidence and complications of CMV retinitis. With sustained immune recovery, discontinuation of anti-CMV therapy has been possible in many patients. Still, immune recovery does not guarantee protection from recurrent disease.

Although varicella outbreaks have occurred in vaccination areas, these data may underestimate the true efficacy of the varicella vaccine, and there is still the potential for two-dose programmes, which have not yet been fully explored in the USA or Canada. Catch-up vaccination programmes have also been regarded as an important approach in susceptible individuals, including women of childbearing potential. Periodic exposure (boosts) to vaccines may potentially help prevent the reactivation of herpes zoster and accumulation of susceptibility in these at-risk groups.

However, before implementing such programmes, it is important to describe the regional baselines of varicella and herpes zoster epidemiology, both to aid the design of vaccination strategies and to observe trends after the introduction of vaccination. In many areas of the world, this information is difficult to gather, and the epidemiology of herpes zoster and post-herpetic neuralgia in these regions is poorly understood. In Australia, available national data sources of varicella and herpes zoster, including serological data, provide reliable estimates of disease and reveal similar rates of incidence and complications to those in Europe and the USA. However, the average age of infection in Australia is higher than in Europe and in the USA. Epidemiological data from Asia and South America are scarce. Unexpectedly for tropical countries, the incidences of herpes zoster in Asia and South America also appear to be comparable with those in Europe and the USA, despite the delayed acquisition of varicella-zoster virus infection in Asia. In Brazil, there is some evidence for higher than expected incidence rates for herpes zoster in young adults.
