OBJECTIVE The goal of this meta-analysis was to investigate the impact of cytomegalovirus hyperimmune globulin (CMVIG) on cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, CMV disease, and mid-term survival in solid organ transplant recipients. METHODS Medline, EMBASE, and the Cochrane databases were searched since their inceptions until 2006. Inclusion criteria comprised: prospective randomized trials, in so...

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) was demonstrated to induce intrinsic interference to Newcastle disease virus (NDV) in human fibroblast cells under noncytopathic conditions. This interference is unique in that (i) cytomegalovirus is the first DNA virus demonstrated to have this property and (ii) the state of interference was transient and progressively lost as the condition of the cells changed with the d...

Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) affects ~1 of 150 births and is a leading cause of hearing loss and intellectual disability. It has been suggested that transmission may occur via contaminated surfaces. CMV AD169 in filtered human saliva, applied to environmental surfaces, was recovered at various time points. Samples were evaluated by culture and real-time polymerase chain reaction. CMV was fo...

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection can present with severe manifestations that are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, especially in immunocompromised patients. CMV infections in immunocompetent patients are usually transient and do not exhibit many symptoms. However, in some patients, the manifestations can be severe. We report CMV colitis in two immunocompetent patients; one in ...

Symptomatic cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection mainly affects preterm and immunocompromised infants and usually manifest as rash, pneumonia, hepatospleenomegaly or encephalitis. To our knowledge intractable diarrhoea at two weeks of age caused by postnatally acquired CMV in immunocompetent term neonate is not reported. An unusual case of postnatally acquired CMV enterocolitis manifesting as protra...

background and aims: cytomegalovirus (cmv) infection is very common in the population. virus belongs to the family herpesviridae, whose representatives are characterized by the ability to cause the human body's latent persistent infections. the goal of the study is to assess the cmvv infection frequency and pcr method in the choice of cmv in inflammatory eye disease, comparing with cmv pre...

Abstract Objective Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a common opportunistic after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (alloHCT). We explored whether change in CMV cell-mediated immunity (CMV CMI) during the first month predicts risk of development and all-cause mortality. Methods This was follow-up analysis using data from REACT study, multicenter prospective observational study CMV-serop...

Infection is a major problem after transplantation. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common viral infection affecting transplant patients. We describe a case of CMV infection with rare clinical manifestation in the form of nasal polyp. Patient presented 6 weeks following renal transplantation with history of fever and stuffy nose. On evaluation he was found to have nasal polyp which was excise...

Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) is a common acute autoimmune polyneuropathy in adults. There have been few reported cases of Guillain-Barré Syndrome associated with active cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in renal transplant recipients. Here we present a case of active CMV viremia inducing Guillain-Barré Syndrome in a renal transplant recipient. We discuss the treatment regimen utilized. Furthermo...
