antibodies to epstein-barr virus-specific dnase in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma and control groups.	serum samples from 154 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (npc), 374 with other cancers, 1,000 normal controls from government employees' clinic center (gecc), and 3,642 individuals of various ethnic-dialect groups living in high-risk areas for npc were collected and the concentration of antibodies to epstein-barr virus (ebv)-specific dnase activity was determined. taking a serum sample where 1 ml will neutralize two or more units of the dnase activity as positive, 2-4 units as low level, 4- ...	1987	2824675
antibody response to epstein-barr-virus-specific dnase in 13 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma in taiwan: a retrospective study.	serum samples obtained from 13 individuals who were found to have a previous history of or to be suffering from nasopharyngeal carcinoma (npc) were examined for the presence of antibody to epstein-barr virus (ebv) dnase activity. significant to high levels of antibody to ebv dnase activity were detected in most serum samples obtained from four patients prior to the diagnosis of npc. the samples from the other nine patients showed variable levels of antibody. the majority of the samples collected ...	1985	2989423
antibody to epstein-barr virus-specific dnase as a marker for the early detection of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.	we have previously shown that high levels of antibody to epstein-barr virus (ebv)-specific dnase may be a useful marker for the early diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (npc). sera from 3,368 males in an area with a high risk for the development of npc were examined for the presence of antibody to ebv-specific dnase activity. significant levels of the antibody were found in 430 of these sera. as a result, 32 individuals have attended the out-patient department of otolaryngology for clinical e ...	1985	2995572
interaction of factors associated with cancer of the nasopharynx.	a retrospective study of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (npc) revealed that smoking, working under poor ventilation, use of nasal balms or oil for nasal and throat troubles, use of herbal drugs, and anti-ebv antibody titer were found statistically associated. the dural interactions of these factors to the risk of npc were presented. except in work conditions with poor ventilation and when herbal drugs are used, all the combinations were synergistic. the synergistic actions were especially remarkable w ...	1979	227565
histopathological types of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in a low-risk area: japan.	npc in japan was studied histopathologically by examining 816 npcs from among 3 338 biopsies from patients with tumours of the nasopharynx and other parts of the upper respiratory system. in addition, a comparative study on npc among taiwanese and an immunoserological study were carried out. when comparing histological types of malignant tumours of the upper respiratory tract, poorly-differentiated squamous-cell carcinoma predominated only in those of the nasopharynx. malignant nasopharyngeal tu ...	1978	215515
antibodies to epstein-barr virus capsid antigen and early antigen in nasopharyngeal carcinoma and comparison groups.	antibodies to epstein-barr virus capsid antigen (anti-vca) and early antigen (anti-ea) were measured in 263 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (npc), 624 age- and sex-matched neighborhood controls, 570 family members of npc patients and 830 family members of neighborhood controls in taiwan. the distribution of antibody titers was significantly different between npc patients and the other three groups. more than 55% and 45% of npc patients had titers of greater than or equal to 1:640 and grea ...	1977	199059

antibodies to epstein-barr virus in a burkitt's lymphoma cell line in taiwan monkeys (macaca cyclopis).	the prevalence of taiwan monkeys with antibodies to epstein-barr virus, as detected by the indirect immunofluorescence technique, was lower than that of healthy persons in taiwan.	1971	4324196
