INTRODUCTION: Diagnosis of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection particularly its occult form requires monitoring and repeat serological and molecular studies. The aim of the study was to investigate the possible relation between the case of a fa...
BACKGROUND: BK virus allograft nephropathy is a major complication of kidney transplantation that markedly reduces graft survival (50% graft failure 24 months after being diagnosed). BK virus replication can occur at any time posttransplantation. Vir...
In the past, bovine herpesvirus 4 (BoHV-4) has been suggested to be associated with metritis and endometritis. However, not many field studies investigated the association between BoHV-4 and subclinical endometritis (SCE). In the present study, the a...

UNLABELLED: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection occurs frequently after solid organ transplantation. Therapeutic strategies, in particular when to start a curative treatment, has not yet been defined. The purpose of this study was to assess predictive fa...
BACKGROUND: According to the 7th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system, over 50% of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) have N1 disease at initial diagnosis. However, patients with N1 NPC are relatively unde...
BACKGROUND: The Geminiviridae family encompasses a group of single-stranded DNA viruses with twinned and quasi-isometric virions, which infect a wide range of dicotyledonous and monocotyledonous plants and are responsible for significant economic los...
BACKGROUND: The study of virus-host infectious association is important for understanding the functions and dynamics of microbial communities. Both cellular and fractionated viral metagenomic data generate a large number of viral contigs with missing...
The management of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) encounters challenges like suboptimal antiviral response and the lack of predictive biomarkers. In this study, the role of paternally expressed gene 10 (PEG10) in hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroconversio...
BACKGROUND: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous herpesvirus that is known to cause infectious mononucleosis and is associated with several autoimmune diseases and cancers through immune system dysregulation and chronic inflammatory mechanisms.
