Journal ArticleDOI
Use of Cytomegalovirus Immune Globulin to Prevent Cytomegalovirus Disease in Renal-Transplant Recipients
David R. Snydman,Barbara G. Werner,Beverly Heinze-Lacey,Victor P. Berardi,Nicholas L. Tilney,Robert L. Kirkman,Edgar L. Milford,Cho Si,Bush Hl,Andrew S. Levey +9 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that CMV immune globulin provides effective prophylaxis in renal-transplant recipients at risk for primary CMV disease and no effect is observed on rates of viral isolation or seroconversion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Particles associated with Australia Antigen in the Sera of Patients with Leukaemia, Down's Syndrome and Hepatitis
TL;DR: The precipitin band which forms between the haemophilia antiserum and the serum containing Australia antigen stains faintly with sudan black, indicating that the antigen contains lipid.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Independent Role of Cytomegalovirus as a Risk Factor for Invasive Fungal Disease in Orthotopic Liver Transplant Recipients
Marie J. George,David R. Snydman,Barbara G. Werner,John L. Griffith,Matthew E. Falagas,N. N. Dougherty,Robert H. Rubin +6 more
TL;DR: CMV disease or being a CMV-seronegative recipient of a CMv-seropositive donor organ is an important predictor for invasive fungal disease following orthotopic liver transplantation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accidental Hepatitis-B-Surface-Antigen-Positive Inoculations: Use of e Antigen to Estimate Infectivity
TL;DR: The sensitivity of the radioimmunoassay showed that a large proportion (55%) of donor sera not producing hepatitis were positive for HBeAg; therefore, even the most flagrant needlestick exposures to HBsAg-positive sera often must involve subthreshold amounts of infective material.
ReportDOI
Laboratory testing for the diagnosis of HIV infection : updated recommendations
Bernard M. Branson,S. Michele Owen,Laura G. Wesolowski,Berry Bennett,Barbara G. Werner,Kelly Wroblewski,Michael Pentella +6 more
TL;DR: Reactive results on the initial antigen/antibody combination immunoassay and the HIV1/HIV-2 antibody differentiation immunoASSay should be interpreted as positive for HIV-1 antibodies, HIV-2 antibodies, or HIV antibodies, undifferentiated.
