A survey is given on the history, characteristic symptoms and recent data of the etiology of exanthem subitum (Zahorsky's disease, sixth disease, roseola infantum). Some cases are presented and modern diagnostic techniques for atypical cases are discussed. The disease is caused by an infection with
As to the present knowledge the critical rose rash of infants (exanthema subitum, roseola infantum) means to be an exanthematous infectious disease that, occurring preferably in elder babes and younger infants (1st--3rd year of life), is caused by the newly detected herpesvirus (now the sixth one)
Exanthema subitum was described in 1910 by John Zahorsky/USA; in 1986 and 1988 the human herpesvirus 6 (HHV 6) was discovered as the causative agent of the disease and serologic tests were established for diagnostics (specific IgM and IgG antibodies). Up to this time the diagnosis was based on the
While most parvovirus B19 or HHV-6 infections resolve without sequelae, rheumatologic and hemolytic complications and seizures can develop.
We tested 989 sera of all age groups (patients and blood donors) from north eastern Germany (West Pomerania and Mecklenburg) and found 820 cases (82.9%) of specific human herpes virus type 6 (HHV 6) antibodies (IgG) gy indirect immunofluorescent assay. The seroprevalence rose to 83.6% when the 7 HHV
A 10-year follow-up of children having exanthem subitum (ES) seen in an outpatient paediatric clinic, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia shows that uvulo-palatoglossal junctional (UPJ) ulcer is a reliable early clinical sign of ES. During this period, 1,977 children (1,086 males, 891 females) had adequate
The primary infection with the human herpesvirus (HHV) 6 usually occurs before the age of two (95%) and clinically either presents as tertian fever followed by exanthem subitum (10%) or even more often as febrile disease without an exanthem. In adults an active HHV-6 infection can present as febrile
We determined IgG antibodies against Human Herpesvirus-6 (strain Uganda 1102, M. D. Griffin, London) in the indirect immunofluorescence test in sera from 1105 persons of various age groups. Of these sera 570 were retested using HHV-6 strain St. W. (Prof. Schneweis, Bonn). We could confirm that
The results of the comparison of the pattern of specific typhoid exanthema, as well as the time of its appearance, in elderly and senile patients and in young patients are presented; besides, some characteristics of humoral immunity in these groups of patients are compared. This comparison has
A 58-year-old woman presenting with 3-week-prolonged fever was referred to our department. Her present history and physical examination results were unremarkable. Her activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) was prolonged. Upon further investigation, anticardiolipin/beta2-glycoprotein I complex
