Epstein-Barr virus serology and PCR: conflicting results in an immunocompetent host. A case report and review of literature Hasselt University
We present the case of a 27-year-old immunocompetent man who progressively developed a generalized lymphadenopathy and B symptoms. Results of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) serology were suggestive for a past infection, but the EBV viral load in whole blood was high. Also, core needle biopsy of the largest lymph node showed an image which could fit an EBV-driven reactive lymphoproliferation. Despite the absence of an immune disorder, all medical ...
Acute schistosomiasis in a cluster of travelers from Rwanda: diagnostic contribution of schistosome DNA detection in serum compared to parasitology and serology Institute of Tropical Medicine
Background. Diagnosis of acute schistosomiasis is often elusive in travelers. Serum schistosome DNA detection is a promising new diagnostic tool. Its performance is compared with current diagnostic procedures in a cluster of travelers recently infected in Rwanda. Methods. Recent infection with schistosomiasis was suspected in 13 Belgian children and adults, within 2 months after swimming in the Muhazi Lake, Rwanda. All were subjected to clinical ...
