TL;DR: Results from a prospective sero-epidemiological study initiated in Uganda in 1971 indicate that children with high antibody titres to Epstein-Barr virus structural antigens are at high risk of developing Burkitt's lymphoma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Final case reporting from the ugandan prospective study of the relationship between ebv and burktit's lymphoma
TL;DR: Serological and virological evaluation of two additional pre‐bled BL cases found in Uganda confirmed the findings in the first 14 cases and strengthen the epidemiological evidence for a causal role of the EBV in endemic BL.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A pilot study to test the feasibility of a long-term cohort investigation into the relationship of Epstein-Barr (E.B.) virus to Burkitt's lymphoma was undertaken in the West Nile District of Uganda as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Space-time clustering of Burkitt's lymphoma in the West Nile district of Uganda: 1961-1975.
TL;DR: It is suggested that study of variation in the intensity and type of malarial infestation in different areas at different times may help explain the epidemiological findings and suggest what, if any, aspects of this infection are critical for inducing BL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal variation in onset of Burkitt's lymphoma in the West Nile District of Uganda.
TL;DR: A seasonal variation in onset of Burkitt's lymphoma has been observed in an epidemiological study in the West Nile District of Uganda and points to the existence of an environmental factor which contributes to tumour causation after a relatively short latent period.
