Seroprevalence and characterization of Epstein-Barr virus exposure among paediatric population
The study explored Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) exposure in 244 children using EBV-specific serology. Seroprevalence of EBV was 75–80%. Past infection and primary infection were observed in 52.04% & 8.6% respectively, whereas 23.36% showed no serological evidence of exposure to EBV. Age-stratification suggested maternal antibodies may have protected infants till 6 months of age, while the 1–3 year age group showed maximum primary infection and the 6 months to 1 year group showed the maximum susceptible group to EBV primary infection. There is a paucity of literature about EBV in India and further research is required for a better understanding of EBV pathogenesis and its clinical implications in Indian children.
