seroprevalence of herpes simplex virus type 2 antibodies in an std clinic in paris.our objective was to evaluate the seroprevalence of herpes simplex virus (hsv)-2 and hsv-1 in a population of men and women attending the std clinic of hôpital st-louis (paris, france). four hundred and eighty-seven patients (264 men and 223 women) were tested for hsv-2 and hsv-1 antibodies by specific enzyme immunoassay (eia) (smithkline-beecham biologicals). univariate and multivariate analyses were carried out for correlations with clinical, socio-epidemiological and behavioural data. hsv-2 s ...199910471101
[herpes simplex virus meningitis in 11 patients].we reviewed retrospectively the demographic, clinical, biological characteristics and outcomes of 11 patients with hsv meningitis.200818191515
unexpected high prevalence of herpes simplex virus (hsv) type 2 seropositivity and hsv genital shedding in pregnant women living in an east paris suburban area.both herpes simplex virus type 2 (hsv-2) seroprevalence and the proportion of hsv-1 genital ulcers are increasing in industrialized countries. the consequences of these epidemiological changes, in pregnant women in france, for both the genital shedding of hsv and vertical transmission, have been poorly evaluated. the hsv-1 and hsv-2 seroprevalence and the rate of subclinical genital shedding of herpes close to delivery were evaluated in pregnant women, with no history of genital herpes, living i ...200717785000
virological, serological and epidemiological study of 255 consecutive cases of genital herpes in a sexually transmitted disease clinic of paris (france): a prospective study.some studies (mostly retrospective) have pointed to an increasing frequency (up to 60%) of herpes simplex virus type 1 (hsv-1) in genital herpes (gh), but they were biased towards severe or atypical cases. we wished to evaluate the frequency of hsv-1 in patients attending our clinic for both first and recurrent episodes of gh. all patients (men and women) with genital lesions compatible with gh were included in a prospective study between may 1999 and april 2002. for all patients a standardized ...200616409679
seroprevalence of hsv-1 and hsv-2 infection in the general french population.in spite of the large prevalence and growing incidence of herpes simplex infection (hsv-1 and hsv-2), relatively few large serological surveys are available worldwide and it is still difficult compare frequencies of hsv contaminations in various countries. we present the results of herpimax, the first epidemiological inquiry on hsv prevalence in the general french population.200212238654
