“…Our study provided evidence that age of patients, duration of hemodialysis, HBsAg and HCV infection and ALT and AST levels were not significant predictors of TTV positivity in hemodialysis patients. This result coincides with that reported by many studies 14,8,17,28,29 .…”

Background: Patients with chronic renal failure on maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) have high risks of viral infections and the prevalence of transfusion transmissible viral infection is common among them. The aim of our study was to detect hepatitis B and hepatitis C virus in hemodialysis patients and healthy donors and to explore if there was a relationship between duration of hemodialysis and hepatitis B and hepatitis C in our patients. Methodology: A cross sectional study was conducted in a private hemodialysis clinic in Dhaka city with end stage renal disease on maintenance hemodialysis and an age matched healthy donors as comparable group from July 2015 to June 2016. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST), HBsAg and anti HCV were determined along with duration and units of blood transfusion needed by them. Results: Our study showed the mean age of 126 MHD patients were 42.2±11.7 years along with 132 healthy donors as control group had mean age 39.2±9.7 years. Among the hemodialysis patients 34 (26.98%) showed transfusion transmitted infection positivity and in control group 11 (8.33%) showed transfusion transmitted infection positivity with the difference between two study group showed statistical significance (p<o.oo1). History of blood transfusion showed the significant predictor of occurrence of TTV infection in hemodialysis patients (p<0.01). Duration of hemodialysis and seropositivity of TTI was not significant (p>0.05). The number of units of blood transfusion and the TTI positivity also showed no significant difference (p>0.05) with HBsAg (17.46%) and anti HCV (9.52%). Conclusions: The prevalence of TTI in hemodialysis patients is significantly higher than that in healthy individuals. So, the regular screening of HBV and HCV among patients and healthy donors are strictly provided to monitor the communicable disease. Bangladesh J Medicine July 2019; 30(2) : 78-82

“…The patients with chronic renal failure suffering from hemodialysis (HD)are at risk of TTV infection (11). Data on TTV infection in peritoneal dialysis patients was very rare; these results Indicated the prevalence of TTV in a population with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis is close to that of healthy controls (12). At worldwide distribution, torque teno virus was found to be more widespread in men (13).…”

There are still very few studies of the Torque Tenovirus infection rate between hemodialysis patients in Iraq. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the frequency of TTV viremia in hemodialysis Iraqi patients. This study has carried out in Baghdad city from October 2019 to February 2020 and included 150 patients with kidney failure disease undergoing hemodialysis and 50 control subjects .Blood samples have been obtained for serological TTV detection. The result shows PCR has been used to detect TTV, isolates have been identified through N22 region sequencing and phylogenetic analysis has also been performed. Of the 150 patients, 2 (1 male and 1 female) were TTV positive.The results shows in ( isolate 14) substitution four Transversion A>C, C>G,A>T, and T>A three Transition T>C,A>G, and T>C of Specific region within TTV(N-22) and showed 94% identified with a standard in Gene Bank while having 99% identified with a standard in Gene Bank with (isolate 17) substitution fiveTransversion A>T,A>C,T>A, A>Tand C>G threeTransition A>G,A>G and T>C . The phylogenetic analysis showed that identical among themselves and the world with 100% compatibility values.

AIM:To explore the prevalence of SEN virus (SENV) in patients with non A-E hepatitis and volunteer blood donors in Shanghai. METHODS: A c c o r d i n g t o t h e p u b l i s h e d g e n e sequences, primers from the conserved region were designed. Then, the prevalence of SEN virus in 30 samples from healthy voluntary blood donors and 30 samples from patients with non A-E hepatitis were detected by nested-PCR of SENV-D/H. Some PCR products were cloned and sequenced. RESULTS: The specificity of genotype-specific PCR was confirmed by sequencing, the SENV DNA was detected in 53.3% of the patients with non A-E hepatitis and 10% of the blood donors. The prevalence of SENV-D/H viremia was significantly higher in patients with non A-E hepatitis than in blood donors (P = 0.0002). SENV-H subtype and SENV-D subtype were found in 2 and 1 samples, respectively from blood donors. SENV-H subtype, SENV D subtype, mixed SENV-D and SENV-H subtype were found in 8, 6 and 2 samples, respectively, from patients with non A-E hepatitis. CONCLUSION: The gene type of SENV in patients with non A-E hepatitis and blood donors in shanghai is D or H subtype, and transfusion is not the only transmitting form of SENV.
