01/11/2005 - "However, the notion that PHN may reflect a smoldering VZV ganglionitis is supported by 1) the detection of VZV DNA and proteins in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of many patients with PHN; 2) studies of multiple patients with zoster sine herpete, which indicate a productive VZV ganglionitis; and 3) a favorable response of some patients with zoster sine herpete and PHN to antiviral treatment. "
09/01/2002 - "Using VZV and purified protein derivative (PPD) antigens to evaluate DH, we skin tested patients with acute, VZV-induced anterior uveitis (herpes zoster ophthalmicus [ZO-AU]) (n = 12), those with uveitis caused by VZV in the absence of dermatitis (zoster sine herpete [ZSH-AU]) (n = 3), and age-matched patients whose ophthalmic herpes zoster was unassociated with uveitis as controls (n = 7).
