Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 in the United States, 1976 to 1994

TL;DR: The seroprevalence of HSV-2 in persons 12 years of age or older in the United States was 21.9 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 20.2 to 23.6 percent), corresponding to 45 million infected people in the noninstitutionalized civilian population.

A novel role for 3-O-sulfated heparan sulfate in herpes simplex virus 1 entry

TL;DR: It is shown that heparan sulfate modified by a subset of the multiple D-glucosaminyl 3-O-sulfotransferase isoforms provides sites for the binding of a third viral glycoprotein, gD, and for initiation of HSV-1 entry.

TL;DR: Two double-blind, randomized trials of a herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) glycoprotein-D-subunit vaccine with alum and 3-O-deacylated-monophosphoryl lipid A in subjects whose regular sexual partners had a history of genital herpes suggest that the glycop Protein D vaccine has efficacy against genital herpes in women who are seronegative for both HSV-1 and HSV -2 at base line but not in those

Severe Acquired Immunodeficiency in Male Homosexuals, Manifested by Chronic Perianal Ulcerative Herpes Simplex Lesions

TL;DR: Four homosexual men presented with gradually enlarging perianal ulcers, from which herpes simplex virus was cultured, and were found to have depressed cell-mediated immunity, as evidenced by skin anergy, lymphopenia, and poor or absent responses to plant lectins and antigens in vitro.

Genital herpes simplex virus infections: clinical manifestations, course, and complications.

TL;DR: The clinical course and complications of 268 patients with first episodes and 362 with recurrent episodes of genital herpes infection were reviewed, and the major concerns were the frequency of recurrences and fear of transmitting infection to partners or infants.

Vidarabine versus Acyclovir Therapy in Herpes Simplex Encephalitis

TL;DR: It is concluded that acyclovir is currently the treatment of choice for biopsy-proved herpes simplex encephalitis and patients under 30 years of age and with a Glasgow coma score above 10 had the best outcome with acy Clovir treatment.

Recovery of Herpes-Simplex Virus from Human Trigeminal Ganglions

TL;DR: In six of seven patients, herpes-simplex virus was recovered from trigeminal ganglions obtained at autopsy from unselected cadavers less than 12 hours after death and maintained in culture for up to two weeks after death.

Adenine Arabinoside Therapy of Biopsy-Proved Herpes Simplex Encephalitis

TL;DR: Adenine arabinoside (vidarabine) was used for treatment of Type 1 herpes simplex encephalitis in a placebo-controlled study as mentioned in this paper, which reduced mortality from 70 to 28 per cent (P = 0.03).
