Approximately 80% of patients exhibit no symptoms during lytic infection, resulting in missed treatment opportunities and inadvertent transmission to others, which facilitates the virus’s spread.</p> <p><bold>AIM:</bold> This work aimed to assess the prevalence of latent herpesvirus infections and their clinical manifestations in the oral cavity among dental patients.</p> <p><bold>METHODS:</bold> A total of 38 patients aged 10–17 years and 36 patients aged 19–35 years were examined. All patients underwent real-time polymerase chain reaction testing of saliva samples for the presence of Herpes Simplex Virus 1, Herpes Simplex Virus 2, Epstein–Barr Virus, Cytomegalovirus, and Human Herpesvirus 6. Results were compared between patients with positive and negative test outcomes, regardless of the specific virus identified.</p> <p><bold>RESULTS:</bold> Among patients aged 10–17 years, the following viruses were detected: Herpes Simplex Virus 1 in 27 patients, Herpes Simplex Virus 2 in 9, Epstein–Barr Virus in 12, Cytomegalovirus in 8, and Human Herpes Virus 6 in 18. In the 19–35-year-old group, Herpes Simplex Virus 1 was found in 12 patients, Herpes Simplex Virus 2 in 8, Epstein–Barr Virus in 18, Cytomegalovirus in 6, and Human Herpes Virus 6 in 19.</p> <p><bold>CONCLUSION:</bold> A high prevalence of asymptomatic Herpes Simplex Virus 1 infection (71%) was observed in patients aged 10–17 years, despite the absence of classical clinical signs. Among those aged 19–35 years, Human Herpes Virus 6 was most prevalent (53%).</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p><bold>Обоснование.</bold> Вирусы герпеса могут протекать бессимптомно, поражая слизистые оболочки и кожу людей всех возрастов и оставаясь латентными в нейронах на протяжении всей жизни. Примерно у 80% пациентов во время литической инфекции не наблюдается никаких симптомов, что приводит к тому, что узкое окно возможностей для лечения часто упускается, а вирус непреднамеренно передается при контакте с другими людьми, что усугубляет его распространение.</p> <p><bold>Цель</bold> — изучить распространенность латентного течения герпес-вирусных инфекций и клинические проявления данного состояния в полости рта у пациентов на стоматологическом приеме.</p> <p><bold>Методы.</bold> Обследованы 38 пациентов в возрасте 10–17 лет и 36 пациентов в возрасте 19–35 лет. Всем пациентам был выполнен анализ методом полимеразной цепной реакции в режиме реального времени на наличие в слюне Herpes Simplex Virus 1, Herpes Simplex Virus 2, Epstein–Barr Virus, Cytomegalovirus, Human Herpes Virus 6. Сравнивали показатели пациентов с положительным результатом теста (вне зависимости от вируса) и пациентов с отрицательным результатом.</p> <p><bold>Результаты.</bold> Установлено, что в возрастной группе пациентов 10–17 лет выявляются положительные результаты теста на следующие вирусы герпеса: Herpes Simplex Virus 1 — у 27 пациентов, Herpes Simplex Virus 2 — у 9 пациентов, Epstein–Barr Virus — у 12 пациентов, Cytomegalovirus — у 8 пациентов, Human Herpes Virus 6 — у 18 пациентов. Для возрастной группы 18–35 лет было характерно следующее распределение показателей: у 12 пациентов определяется Herpes Simplex Virus 1, у 8 — Herpes Simplex Virus 2, у 18 выявлен положительный результат теста на Epstein–Barr Virus, у 6 — Cytomegalovirus и у 19 — Human Herpes Virus 6.</p> <p><bold>Выводы. </bold>У пациентов 10–17 лет выявлена высокая распространенность латентной формы Herpes Simplex Virus 1 (71%) при отсутствии классических клинических признаков инфицирования, у пациентов 18–35 лет — высокая распространенность Human Herpes Virus 6 (53%).</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>herpesviridae</kwd><kwd>herpes virus</kwd><kwd>latent infection</kwd><kwd>prevalence</kwd><kwd>oral fluid</kwd><kwd>polymerase chain reaction</kwd><kwd>Herpes Simplex Virus 1</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>герпесвирусы</kwd><kwd>вирус герпеса</kwd><kwd>латентная форма</kwd><kwd>распространенность</kwd><kwd>ротовая жидкость</kwd><kwd>ПЦР</kwd><kwd>вирус простого герпеса 1</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Didkovsky NA, Malashenkova IK, Tanasova AN, et al.
