OBJECTIVES: To quantify electromyographic and neurographic changes and to correlate them with the clinical data of outpatients with herpes zoster. DESIGN: Prospective case series. SETTING: Outpatient department. PATIENTS: A consecutive, unselected series of 158 outpatient cases (88 women, 70 men; mean age, 64y) of herpes zoster of the head and limbs. INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Blink reflex and electromyography and motor and sensory nerve conduction velocities of nerves and muscles corresponding to affected dermatomes. RESULTS: Postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), segmental zoster paresis, and polyneuropathy were found in 31%, 19%, and 2.5% of cases, respectively. Absence or reduction of sensory action potential amplitudes, blink reflex areas, and compound muscle action potential amplitudes were found in 60%, 31%, and 18% of cases, respectively. Sensory and motor conduction velocities and motor and blink reflex latencies were nearly always normal or only slightly slowed. Electromyographic signs of abnormal spontaneous activity were found in 36% of the cases. Electrophysiologic alterations were correlated among themselves, with age, with presence of segmental zoster paresis, and with absence of antiviral therapy. The extent of the skin rash (number of dermatomes affected by herpes zoster) was the only variable predictive of disappearance or improvement of PHN. CONCLUSIONS: Sensory axonal neuropathy, often associated with similar motor involvement, can be shown by classical electrophysiologic methods in herpes zoster. The severity of damage to motor fibers was related to damage to sensory fibers, but no relation was found between peripheral axon damage and PHN. The site of motor system damage may be the ventral roots, plexus, or peripheral nerve. The probability of complications and the severity of sensory and motor peripheral axonal damage were increased in older patients. Appropriate antiviral therapy seems to reduce the incidence of segmental zoster paresis and the severity of damage to the peripheral fibers. A reduced extent of herpetic rash was the only factor to correlate with a good outcome of PHN.

The seroprevalence of human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) infection in the Thai population was investigated. Sera from 1,018 human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1)-negative and 436 HIV-1-positive individuals were tested for antibodies to latent and lytic HHV-8 antigens by indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using mixed recombinant orf HHV-8 proteins. The positive sera were further tested with recombinant HHV-8 protein expressed 293T cells by IFA. The seroprevalence of HHV-8 infection was determined by the concordant reactivity of sera among antibody testing assays. The results showed a low rate of HHV-8 seropositivity in both HIV-1-negative healthy individuals (0.6%) and HIV-1-infected patients (0.7%). These results are consistent with the fact that a small number of patients with AIDS-associated KS have been reported in Thailand and that HHV-8 is an uncommon pathogen in this country. Interestingly, we found that sera from the general population living in the north, but not other regions of Thailand, had antibodies to HHV-8.

BACKGROUND: The purposes of this study were: to study the presence of human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) in different Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) epidemiological groups, multiple myeloma (MM), and immunodeficiency-associated lymphoid proliferations; to investigate the potential sexual transmission of HHV-8 by analyzing its presence in women from the general population, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) seropositive women, and prostitutes; and to establish a reliable and efficient PCR strategy for the detection of HHV-8.Patients and methods: HHV-8 detection was performed by PCR and positive cases were confirmed by automatic bi-directional sequencing. We selected 25 KS, 70 immunodeficiency associated non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL), 30 HIV-positive Hodgkin's lymphomas (HL), and 2 primary effusion lymphomas (PEL). Bone marrow aspirates were available from 41 MM, 9 monoclonal gammopathies of undetermined significance and 24 patients with other disorders. Bone marrow dendritic cell cultures from 12 MM patients were also performed. Cells from cervical, anal, and oral cavity scrapes were examined for the presence of HHV-8 in 40 control women, 10 HIV-seropositive women, and 20 HIV-seronegative prostitutes. Serologic tests were also performed.Results: HHV-8 was specifically detected in 100% KS and PEL, and in 5.7% immunodeficiency associated NHL. All cases of HIV-HL and MM were HHV-8 negative. Antibodies against HHV-8 were found in 10% of control women, 10% HIV-positive women, and 25% prostitutes. Only 1 sample was positive for HHV-8 by PCR.Conclusions: HHV-8 is associated with all epidemiological forms of KS; HHV-8 does not contribute to the pathogenesis of MM, and this virus is not ubiquitous in the human population. Seroprevalence of HHV-8 is increased in prostitutes, although this may partially be attributed to the geographical origin. For a reliable PCR detection of HHV-8, it is necessary to target different regions of the viral genome and to sequence amplification products.

Virion host shutoff (vhs)-deficient herpes simplex virus (HSV) was tested as a therapeutic vaccine in a mouse model of UV light-induced recurrent herpetic stromal keratitis. Four weeks after primary corneal infection, mice were vaccinated intraperitoneally with vhs(-) vaccine or control. Four weeks after vaccination, the eyes of latently infected mice were UV-B irradiated to induce recurrent virus shedding and disease. Post-irradiation corneal opacity in latently infected, vhs(-)-vaccinated mice was significantly reduced compared to control-vaccinated mice (P=0.007 to 0.035). The incidence and duration of recurrent virus shedding were the same in both groups. Antibody titres were increased (P=0.05) and delayed type hypersensitive responses were unaffected by vhs(-) vaccination. Combined with studies using different vaccination timing and vhs(-) genotypes, these data suggest that deletion of vhs is a useful strategy in the development of a therapeutic HSV vaccine, and that temporal and genetic factors influence vaccination outcome.

Blood samples were collected from seven species of free-ranging ungulates in Alaska. Sera were tested for evidence of exposure to malignant catarrhal fever viruses (MCFV) by means of a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Antibody prevalences were as follows: muskox (Ovibos moschatus) 100 positive samples of 104 tested (96%); Dall sheep (Ovis dalli) 212 of 222 (95%); elk (Cervus elaphus) 14 of 51 (27%); bison (Bison bison) 34 of 197 (17%); caribou (Rangifer tarandus) nine of 232 (4%); Sitka black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus sitkensis) one of 49 (2%); and moose (Alces alces) three of 219 (1%). Antibody prevalence in a bison population from the Interior was stable over a 5 yr period. These results indicate that at least one virus in the MCF group is enzootic in Dall sheep and muskox in Alaska. Lower antibody prevalences in the other species in this survey suggest that MCFV are latent or subclinical in these free-ranging ruminants. Whole blood samples were collected from 14 Dall sheep and subjected to a polymerase chain reaction assay. Fragments of ovine herpesvirus-2 DNA were detected in six of the samples. The significance of these findings for the health of free-ranging ungulates in Alaska is unknown.

Due to the complexity , the biological process of hair growth is still a work in progress. Nonetheless, several therapeutic methods including prescription medications, transplant surgery, nutritional suppelements, and even snake oils have been in use to help those who attempt to restore their hair. None of these approaches are perfect due to the heterogeneity in the causes that underlie hair loss. Unfortunately, most of these chemical drugs and hair transplantation operations are accompanied by undesirable side effects.

Hair Million of Dream Pharm provides an alternative approach to hair loss problems. Numerous anecdotal cases have demonstrated that this herbal formula based on the authentic Chinese herbs from Chinese Pharmacopoeia actually improves the age-related hair thinning and hair loss among a significant fraction of people who take it as suggested. We still do not understand the mechanisms of action as to how Hair Million works to stop hair loss and promote hair growth, despite all the positive anecdotal demonstration. Neither scientific research nor placebo controlled clinical analysis has been conducted due to the high cost of such trials. Lack of scientific/clinical research is quite common in herbal arena. Just because science hasn't scrutinized doesn't mean we should stop taking daily food and herbal supplements altogether: our life must go on until we have better understandings of food and herb that we have been taking generation after generation. There are two merits in this hair restoration herbal formula: Firstly, Hair Million is relatively inexpensive compared with other methods, and secondly, it is made of edible herbs that are known to be safe when consumed in regular quantities.
