| herpes zoster virus | <virology> A virus in the family Herpesviridae which causeschickenpox initially and may go dormant and later re-activate, causing the disease shingles. Chickenpox is a common, highly communicabledisease that causes fever and fluid-filled blisters on the skin.Shingles are characterised by extremely painful skin eruptions. (09 Oct 1997) |
| herpes, genital | A viral infection transmitted through intimate contact with the moist mucous linings of the genitals. This contact can involve the mouth, the vagina or the genital skin. The herpes simplex type 2 virus enters the mucous membranes through microscopic tears. Once inside, the virus travels to nerve the roots near the spinal cord and settles there permanently. When an infected person has a herpes outbreak, the virus travels down the nerve fibres to the site of the original infection and when it reaches the skin, the classic redness and blisters occur. The outbreak of herpes is closely related to the functioning of the immune system. Women who have suppressed immune systems, either through stress, disease, or medications, have more frequent and longer-lasting outbreaks. Commonly just called herpes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| herpesviridae | <virology> Family of DNA-containing viruses that infect a wide range of vertebrates, in humans, members of this family are responsible for chickenpox, oral & genital herpes, and mononucleosis. (09 Oct 1997) |
| herpesvirus | Any virus belonging to the family Herpesviridae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Herpeteviridae | <organism, virology> A group of large DNA viruses: Herpes simplex causes cold sores and genital herpes, Varicella zoster causes chicken pox and shingles, cytomegalovirus causes congenital abnormalities and is an opportunistic pathogen, Epstein Barr virus (EBV) causes glandular fever. Herpes simplex type 2 and EBV are associated with human tumours (cervical carcinoma for the former and Burkitt's lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma in the case of EBV). Herpes simplex establishes a lifelong latent infection of sensory neurons in human dorsal root ganglia and has a tendency to resurgence if the immune system is suppressed (causing shingles). (18 Nov 1997) |
| herpetic | 1. Relating to or characterised by herpes. 2. Relating to or caused by a herpetovirus or herpesvirus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| herpetic fever | A disease of short duration, apparently infectious, marked by chills, nausea, elevation of temperature, sore throat, and a herpetic eruption on the face and other areas; primary infection is with herpes simplex virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| herpetic keratitis | <ophthalmology, pathology> Inflammation of the cornea (and conjunctiva) due to herpes virus type I, a characteristic finding on physical examination of the eye (cornea) is a dendritic pattern (crystalline or tree-like pattern). (27 Sep 1997) |
| herpetic keratoconjunctivitis | <pathology> Inflammation of the cornea (and conjunctiva) due to herpes virus type I, a characteristic finding on physical examination of the eye (cornea) is a dendritic pattern (crystalline or tree-like pattern). (27 Sep 1997) |
| herpetic meningoencephalitis | A severe form of meningoencephalitis caused by herpesvirus type 1 and associated with a high mortality rate; definite diagnosis depends upon isolation of the virus or demonstration of viral antigens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| herpetic ulcer | Ulcer caused by herpes simplex virus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| herpetic whitlow | <dermatology, virology> A herpes viral infection that results in a painful blistery eruption on one of the digits. (27 Sep 1997) |
| herpetiform | Resembling herpes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| herpetiform aphthae | A variant of oral aphthae, of unknown aetiology, characterised by up to several dozen ulcers, 2-3 mm in diameter, organised in a clustered herpetiform distribution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| heritability |
A measure of the extent to which a feature is inherited; that proportion of variation of a trait in a population that is due to the variation of genotypes.
