Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a serious public health burden. Worldwide, the prevalence of CMV infections among women of reproductive age ranges between 45% and 99%. In the United States, CMV is the most common congenital viral infection, with approximately 1 in 200 babies born every year with this virus. Although most babies are asymptomatic, up to 20% will develop symptoms such as permanent hearing loss and/or neurodevelopment delays. Primary infection, reactivation, and reinfection

Mashup Score: 0People Coinfected with SARS-CoV-2 and Cytomegalovirus are at Increased Risk of Developing Cardiovascular Disease - 11 month(s) ago
May 31, 2023 — Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is one of the most prevalent herpesviruses worldwide. Depending on the geographical area, it can affect between 40% and 90% of the population and, although it does not produce symptoms in healthy people, the control of this chronic infection requires constant work by the immune system, which is constantly fighting to keep it at bay. A study by the University…

A gB/MF59 vaccine candidate for human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) provided partial protection in organ transplant patients. Here, the authors identify antibody responses in trial participants that target virally infected cells to control cell-to-cell spread of HCMV, providing a potential mechanism for the observed protection.
