6. HCMV UL97 phosphotransferase gene mutations may be associated with antiviral resistance in immunocompromised patients in Belém, PA, Northern Brazil
Abstract INTRODUCTION: Human cytomegalovirus is one of the causes of opportunist infections in immunocompromised patients, and is triggered by factors such as state of viral latency, weakened immune responses, and development of antiviral resistance to ganciclovir, the only drug offered by the public health system in Brazil to treat the infection. The goal

7. Morphological changes in the digestive system of 322 necropsies of patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome: comparison of findings pre- and post-HAART (Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy)
ABSTRACT Involvement of the digestive system in AIDS pathologies or injuries is frequent. Aiming at comparing the frequency, the importance that these lesions have for death and the survival time in patients using or not using HAART, we studied 322 necropsies classified as follows: Group A - without antiretroviral drugs (185 cases); B - one or two antiretrov

8. Immunohistochemical detection of virus through its nuclear cytopathic effect in idiopathic interstitial pneumonia other than acute exacerbation
Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias include complex diseases that have a strong interaction between genetic makeup and environmental factors. However, in many cases, no infectious agent can be demonstrated, and these clinical diseases rapidly progress to death. Theoretically, idiopathic interstitial pneumonias could be caused by the Epstein-Barr virus, cytome

9. Current status of herpesvirus identification in the oral cavity of HIV-infected children
INTRODUCTION: Some viruses of the Herpesviridae family are frequently the etiologic agents of oral lesions associated with HIV. The aim of this study was to identify the presence of herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 (HSV-1, HSV-2), Varicella Zoster virus (VZV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), human herpesvirus type 6, type 7 and type

10. Perfil de risco imunológico e resposta humoral ao citomegalovírus e associação com o estado cognitivo funcional em idosos
Introduction: The immune risk phenotype (IRP), as shown by increased CD8+ and low CD4+ T cell counts, and cognitive impairment have been associated with increased morbidity and mortality in very old subjects. Recent evidence suggests that persistent viral infections of the herpesviridae family such as cytomegalovirus (CMV) are likely to be involved with thes

11. Oral complications in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a longitudinal study / Alterações bucais em pacientes submetidos ao transplante de células tronco hematopoiéticas: estudo longitudinal
The mouth is a well-known site of complications of the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) such as dry mouth, dysgeusia, dysphagia, mucositis, opportunistic infections and graft versus host disease (GVDH). It is known that these complications can compromise the patients quality of life and morbidity post-HSCT. The dentist is the health professiona

12. Cutaneous cytomegalovirus infection in a child with hyper IgE and specific defects in antibody response to protein vaccines
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a common opportunistic systemic infection in immunocompromised patients, but skin involvement is rare. Herein, we report a 10 year-old girl from consanguineous parents who was referred to our center because of disseminated maculopapular rash. She had history of upper and lower respiratory tract infections. In immunological
