## Abstract We describe the unique clinical characteristics of patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) who are infected by human Tβlymphotropic virus type I (HTLVβI). Thirtyβseven patients with ITP were examined in the present study: 10 patients had HTLVβI infection, and the remaini
Adult T-cell leukernidlymphoma (ATL), a malignancy of mature CDCpositive lymphocytes, has been etiologically linked to the human retrovirus HTLV-I. Although a long latent period is suggested from migrant studies, little prospective information on the risk of developing ATL among persons with HTLV-I
Studies in Palawan, Philippines, and lrian Jaya, Indonesia, showed that indeterminate human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) Western blot immunoreactivity is due to cross-reacting anti-Plasmodium falciparum antibodies. To further define this immunoreactivity, mapping studies were conducted using
