Title: Immune responses to varicella zoster virus infections in healthy children. Author: Rotbart HA, Levin MJ, Hayward AR. Journal: J Infect Dis; 1993 Jan; 167(1):195-9. PubMed ID: 8380291. Abstract: The immune responses to varicella zoster virus were studied in 67 otherwise normal children participating in a placebo-controlled trial of acyclovir for the treatment of chickenpox. No differences were observed between acyclovir and placebo groups. Children were studied longitudinally, at onset of chickenpox, and at 1 month, 3 months, 1 year, and 3 years after infection. These data help define the natural history of the immune response to chickenpox in children.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
