Abstract

Six immunocompetent patients with human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) chromosomal integration had HHV-6 and β-globin DNA quantified in various samples by PCR. The mean HHV-6 DNA concentration (log 10 copies/milliliter) in blood was 7.0 (≥1 HHV-6 DNA copies/leukocyte), and in serum it was 5.3 (≥1 HHV-6 DNA copies/lysed cell). The mean HHV-6 DNA load (log 10 copies)/hair follicle was 4.2 (≥1 copies/hair follicle cell), demonstrating that viral integration is not confined to blood cells. The characteristically high HHV-6 DNA levels in chromosomal integration may confound laboratory diagnosis of HHV-6 infection and should be given due consideration.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
