[Herpesvirus infection in patients with chronic glomerulonephritis]
Abstract:
Virological examinations of blood, urine and saliva in 75 patients with chronic glomerulonephritis (CG) revealed, in 95% of them, herpes-virus infections caused by herpes simplex virus, type 1 (34.4%), herpes simplex virus, type 2 (2.6%) and cytomegalovirus (12%) or mixed infections (46%). The infection rate in the control group of children without renal pathology was reliably lower. A majority of CG patients (94%) had a diagnostically significant level of antiherpetic antibodies, class IgG, which also evidence to chronic herpes-virus infection.
