Molecular Diagnosis of Human Epstein Barr virus and Varicella Zoster Virus with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract

Human samples from type one Diabetes Miletus patients were collected during 15, September 2022 to 19 of July 2023. Type one Diabetes mellitus was including (1 – 20 years). The RT-qPCR, Method was detected Epstein Barr virus and Varicella Zoster virus of all sample; the results showed thirty Positive cases for Epstein Barr virus and seven Positive cases while for Varicella Zoster virus. The populations studied representative samples There were four study groups, with participants in (1-5 ,6-10, 11-15, 16-20) years, changed age to gender. The third group (11-15) were high cases of Human infected (46%) for EBV in compare of aged group (1-5) was (10%), (6-10) was (13%) and the age group (16-20) was (30%). while VZV Age group (1-5) was higher positive cases than other (57%), (6-10) was (28%), (11-15) was (14%) and in the later age group (16-20) no positive case. the samples were isolated from the hospitals including ( Al-sadr /diabetes and endocrine gland center , Al-Zahraa hospital ) . The first study in Iraq to diagnose Epstein Barr virus and Varicella Zoster virus in patients with type 1 Diabetes by molecular technique.
