Article Abstract
Since Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) was discovered in 1964, it has been reported to be associated with various malignancies as well as benign diseases, and the pathogenicity of EBV has been widely studied. Several databases have been established to provide comprehensive information on the virus and its relation to diseases and introduce convenient analysis tools. Although they have greatly facilitated the analysis of EBV at the genome, gene, protein, or epitope level, they did not provide enough insight into the genomic variants of EBV, which have been suggested as relevant to diseases by multiple studies. Here, we introduce dbEBV, a comprehensive database of EBV genomic variation landscape, which contains 942 EBV genomes with 109,893 variants from different tissues or cell lines in 24 countries. The database enables the visualization of information with varying global frequencies and their relationship with the human health of each variant. It also supports phylogenetic analysis at the genome or gene level in subgroups of different characteristics. Information of interest can easily be reached with functions such as searching, browsing, and filtering. In conclusion, dbEBV is a convenient resource for exploring EBV genomic variants, freely available at http://dbebv.omicsbio.info.

Splenic Infarctions in Acute Epstein-Barr Virus Infection: A Rare but Possibly Underdiagnosed Complication in Adults.
Eur J Case Rep Intern Med

Department of Internal Medicine, Hospital Universitario San Agustín, Asturias, Spain.
Background: Although splenomegaly is a common finding in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, splenic infarction is rarely reported and may be under-recognised, especially in adults. Neurological complications such as aseptic meningitis are also uncommon but documented. The simultaneous occurrence of both complications in the context of primary EBV infection is exceptional.

A 3-year-old female patient, who had received a liver transplant from her father 1 year previously to treat biliary atresia, was admitted with fever and pancytopenia. History showed Epstein-Barr virus polymerase chain reaction positivity detected in the patient 3 months earlier; the patient received reduced immunosuppression in doses of tacrolimus, and valganciclovir was administered. Physical exa-mination showed lymphadenopathies at the cervical, axillary and inguinal regions with 2 × 2 cm at diameter, splenomegaly of 5 cm, and fever of 39 °C.

Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders are a serious complication after solid-organ transplant, with a reported incidence from 2% to 20%. Plasma cell neoplasms in solid-organ transplants represent a rare but increasingly serious complication after solid-organ transplant. We report a case of plasmablastic myeloma, a very rare variant of multiple myeloma with aggressive course and poor prognosis.

Background: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) pathogenesis is multi-factorial, involving synergistic interactions among genetic susceptibility, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, and environmental exposures. Notably, specific multi-generational families exhibit NPC incidence substantially exceeding both sporadic cases and general genetic susceptibility cohorts, demonstrating Mendelian inheritance patterns. This supports the hypothesis that high penetrance pathogenic variants dominate disease initiation and progression in familial NPC.

Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder is a rare and serious complication of organ and stem cell transplant secondary to immunosuppressive therapies, most commonly of monomorphic B-cell subtype. Here we describe the first reported case of a pediatric heart transplant patient who developed both monomorphic B-cell and nondestructive PTLD with plasmacytic hyperplasia followed by an unrelated case of monomorphic T-cell and nondestructive PTLD with plasmacytic hyperplasia, which later relapsed. We detail the patient's risk factors for development of PTLD and her successful treatment regimens.
