Epstein-Barr virus infection can be associated with the development of lymphoproliferative disorders.
Is it true that Epstein-Barr virus infection can be associated with the development of lymphoproliferative disorders?
Yes. Multiple clinical studies and reviews establish a well-documented link between Epstein-Barr virus infection and the development of various lymphoproliferative disorders.
Verdict: SUPPORTED · 8 sources for, 0 against · Last checked
The retrieved literature extensively documents the association between Epstein-Barr virus and various forms of lymphoproliferative disorders, particularly in transplant settings and through viral oncogenesis mechanisms. No papers refute this association.
