Journal ArticleDOI
Mother-to-Child Transmission of Hepatitis C Virus Detected by Nested Polymerase Chain Reaction
R. Novati,Valérie Thiers,Antonella d'Arminio Monforte,Pascale Maisonneuve,Nicola Principi,Mario Conti,Adriano Lazzarin,Christian Bréchot +7 more
TL;DR: Transmission of HCV from mother to child by women coinfected with HCV and HIV is demonstrated by women infected with human immunodeficiency virus and the usefulness of PCR for direct and early detection of HC viremia in neonates is indicated.
Journal Article
Impairment of polymorphonuclear leucocyte function in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and with lymphadenopathy syndrome.
Adriano Lazzarin,C. Uberti Foppa,Massimo Galli,A Mantovani,Guido Poli,Fabio Franzetti,R. Novati +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that defective PMNL phagocytosis and killing, unlike defective migration, are somehow related to drug abuse rather than to infection with the causative agent of the immunodeficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Replication of hepatitis c virus in b lymphocytes (cd19
Giulia Morsica,Giuseppe Tambussi,Giovanni Sitia,R. Novati,Adriano Lazzarin,Lucia Lopalco,Sylvain Mukenge +6 more
TL;DR: To clarify which PBMC subpopulation is infected, and to evaluate active hepatitis C virus infection, the presence of genomic sequences (plus-strand) and replicative intermediate (minus-Strand) in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) has been reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymerase chain reaction for Toxoplasma gondii DNA in the cerebrospinal fluid of AIDS patients with focal brain lesions
R. Novati,Antonella Castagna,Giulia Morsica,Luca Vago,Giuseppe Tambussi,Silvia Ghezzi,Cristina Gervasoni,Caroline Bisson,Antonella dʼArminio Monforte,Adriano Lazzarin +9 more
TL;DR: Nested PCR for T. gondii in CSF may improve early differential diagnosis of AIDS-associated focal brain lesions and higher diagnostic accuracy was achieved when lumbar puncture was performed in the first week of anti-Toxoplasma therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparision of brain biopsy and CSF-PCR in the diagnosis of CNS lesions in AIDS patients
A d'Arminio Monforte,P Cinque,Luca Vago,A. Rocca,A Castagna,Cristina Gervasoni,M. R. Terreni,R. Novati,Andrea Gori,Adriano Lazzarin,M Moroni +10 more
TL;DR: There was close correlation between histology and CSF-PCR for CMV encephalitis, PML and PCL, and Antitoxoplasma therapy affected the sensitivity of both histological andCSF- PCR methods.
