Abstract
Human herpes virus 6 (HHV-6) infection generally occurs in infancy,and the virus is mostly latent in monocytes and macrophages in the peripheral blood.HHV-6 is reactivated when the immune function is suppressed.HHV-6 DNA can be detected in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in more than 80% of healthy adults in China,while the incidence is low in the adults with normal immune functions.This paper reports a case of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome caused by HHV-6B infection in an adult with normal immune functions.High-throughput sequencing revealed the presence of HHV-6B with high confidence in blood and cerebrospinal fluid.
期刊介绍:
Acta Academiae Medicinae Sinicae was founded in February 1979. It is a comprehensive medical academic journal published in China and abroad, supervised by the Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China and sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College.
The journal mainly reports the latest research results, work progress and dynamics in the fields of basic medicine, clinical medicine, pharmacy, preventive medicine, biomedicine, medical teaching and research, aiming to promote the exchange of medical information and improve the academic level of medicine. At present, the journal has been included in 10 famous foreign retrieval systems and their databases [Medline (PubMed online version), Elsevier, EMBASE, CA, WPRIM, ExtraMED, IC, JST, UPD and EBSCO-ASP]; and has been included in important domestic retrieval systems and databases [China Science Citation Database (Documentation and Information Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences), China Core Journals Overview (Peking University Library), China Science and Technology Paper Statistical Source Database (China Science and Technology Core Journals) (China Institute of Scientific and Technological Information), China Science and Technology Journal Paper and Citation Database (China Institute of Scientific and Technological Information)].
