Abstract

Background: Herpes zoster, or shingles, is a skin or mucous infection caused by the reactivation of varicella-zoster virus (VZV). Seasonal pattern of herpes zoster incidence was reported in some countries, indicating that emergence of this disease was caused by the reactivation of latent Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV) rather than new exposures to VZV. On the other hand, the VZV primary infection difference between tropical and temperate zones may have implications for virus reactivation as herpes zoster. The aim of this study was  to identify the incidence of herpes zoster in Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung, West Java related to the change of rainfall, air temperature and humidity from 2009 to 2011.Methods: A descriptive retrospective study was carried out to 341 medical records of herpes zoster patients from Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung periode 2009 to 2011. Data on climate factors, i.e. rainfall, air temperature, and relative humidity, were obtained from the Indonesian Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency. The collected data were presented using tables and figures.Result: The highest number of herpes zoster cases occured during the period when the highest annually total rainfall and annually mean relative humidity occurred.Conclusions: The finding of this study shows that herpes zoster cases have the same pattern with the rainfall and relative humidity. These findings can inform better prevention of herpes zoster. However, further research is needed to get more comprehensive understanding on this relationship. DOI: 10.15850/amj.v2n3.591

Abstract

Introduction: Herpes simplex virus (HSV) and herpes zoster virus (HZV) are two members of the herpes virus family that can manifest in oral mucosa. Following primary infection, the viruses remain latent and may reactivate if the immune system becomes compromised. The purpose of this study was to know the prevalence and the site of manifestation of HSV and HZV infection in RSUP Hasan Sadikin Bandung from January 2007 until December 2011. Method: The method of this study was descriptive retrospective using secondary data and literature study. Data were taken from medical records of patients in RSUP Hasan Sadikin Bandung, from January 2007 until December 2011. The results were then presented in table and graphs. Result: The study’s result showed the prevalence of HSV infection from 2007-2011 was 6% while the prevalence of HZV infection was 46%. HSV and HZV infection occurred 41% at head and neck, 36% at trunk, 13% at extremities, 7% generalized, and 3% unspecified. The systemic diseases involved in these herpes viruses found in 20.3% patients. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study were the prevalence of HSV infection was low, while the prevalence of HZV infection was high. HSV infection frequently affected at head and neck, and HZV infection frequently affected the trunk. Systemic diseases involved in these herpes viruses were malignancies, neoplasm, internal organ disorders, skin diseases, blood disorder, and nerve disorder.
