Prevalence of type-specific antibody against type 1 and type 2 herpes simplex virus in women with abnormal cervical cytology: evidence towards pre-pubertal vaccination of sero-negative female subjects.

Patients with abnormal cervical cytology demonstrated a higher prevalence of type-specific complement-fixing antibody to type 2 herpes simplex virus than patients with negative cervical cytology and patients with carcinoma of other body sites. Case-control differences were apparent irrespective of age, socio-economic class and marital status. By contrast, case groups demonstrated a lower prevalence of subjects with type 1 specific antibody. This raises the possibility that pre-adolescent exposure to type 1 herpes simplex virus may offer some measure of protection against pre-malignant and malignant cervical pathology.

On the cause of green hair.

Two silver-blond young women developed green, tinted hair from exposure to tap water containing excessive amounts of copper. Results from analyses of tracemetal content of hair as an indication of excessive ingestion, systemic toxicity, or metabolic derangement should be interpreted with caution in view of the demonstrated ease of external contamination from common sources.
