Searching through Pubmed for HHV-6 related research is best done with a multi-keyword approach. If you search for HHV-6, a paper using the key word HHV6 or HHV6A will not always show up. We recommend the following search string when using Pubmed:
HHV-6 OR HHV-6A OR HHV-6B OR HHV6 OR HHV6A OR HHV6B OR ciHHV-6 OR ciHHV-6A OR ciHHV-6B OR ciHHV6 OR ciHHV6a OR ciHHV6b OR iciHHV-6 OR iciHHV-6A OR iciHHV-6B OR iciHHV6 OR iciHHV6a OR iciHHV6b OR human herpesvirus 6 OR human herpesvirus 6A OR human herpesvirus 6B
