Molecular characterization and functional analysis of occult hepatitis B virus infection in Chinese patients infected with genotype C.

abstract：:A patient presented with acute retinal necrosis of the left eye. Demonstration of herpes simplex virus (HSV) DNA in the aqueous humour confirmed the diagnosis. Negative results of HSV type-specific antibody tests based on gG antigens suggested a primary HSV infection. However, the patient had a past history of laborat...
