Disease relevance of Conjunctivitis, Acute Hemorrhagic

In summer 2002, a nationwide outbreak of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis occurred in South Korea. The etiologic agent was confirmed as coxsackievirus A24 variant (CA24v) by virus isolation and sequencing of a part of the VP1 gene [1].
Enterovirus 70 isolates obtained in Asia and the Americas between 1980 and 1981 from cases of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis were found to be very closely related by RNase T1 oligonucleotide fingerprinting [2].

High impact information on Conjunctivitis, Acute Hemorrhagic

Treatment of cultures with combinations of arildone and IFN resulted in an additive inhibition of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis virus production [3].
In 1969 and early 1970, during the pre-epidemic period of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis (AHC) in the upper north regions of Ghana, 191 human sera were collected [4].
Inhibition of the enteroviruses that cause acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis (AHC) by benzimidazoles; enviroxime (LY 122772) and enviradone (LY 127123) [5].
Monkey kidney cells infected with the J 670/71 strain of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis (AHC) virus in the presence of actinomycin D synthesized two species of viral RNA [6].
Piroxicam eye drops may have beneficial effects for acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis to relieve discomfort, pain, and accelerate recovery [7].

Gene context of Conjunctivitis, Acute Hemorrhagic

Virus-specific, early appearing neutralizing activities (ENA) and interferon (IFN) were detected in tears collected from patients during epidemics of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis (AHC) [8].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Conjunctivitis, Acute Hemorrhagic

Seroepidemiologic studies of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis virus (enterovirus type 70) in West Africa. III. Studies with animal sera from Ghana and Senegal [9].
