摘要: SUMMARY Chickens may be infected with three different oncogenic viruses: avian leukosis virus (ALV), reticuloendotheliosis (REV), and Marek's disease herpesvirus (MDV). Several epidemiological studies have suggested a link between these viruses types of cancer in people working poultry processing plants multiple sclerosis. In this article, we analyze the evidence that are causative agents for human cancer, followed by description relevant key characteristics ALV, REV, MDV. Finally, discuss biological or lack thereof tumor involved etiology sclerosis (MS). The recent primary epidemiologic articles reviewed as examples were only hypothesis-generating examining massive numbers risk factors associations various imprecise, non-viral-specific outcomes. lacked precise exposure to stat...
