Background. Pneumonia is an acute lung parenchyma inflammation, which includes the alveoli and tissues. According to RISKESDAS 2018, pneumonia prevalence of children under five years old in Indonesia has increased from 1.6% 2013 2% 2018. Cytomegalovirus infection (CMV) most common congenital causes high morbidity newborns. The purpose this case report a Semarang conduct discussion cases history...

BACKGROUND Current interest in cytomegalovirus (CMV) is largely due to an increase in the number of cases of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and organ transplantation in recent years. The proper recognition of CMV-infected cells in gastrointestinal mucosal biopsies is critical for effective treatment of this condition. METHODS A total of 6580 endoscopic mucosal biopsies from 6323 patients ...

Human cytomegalovirus is a significant agent of hepatic involvement in neonates. In this study, we investigated the polymorphisms and features of the viral genes UL144 and UL146 as well as their significance to congenital hepatic involvement. In 79 neonates with congenital cytomegalovirus infection and hepatic involvement, full length UL144 and UL146 were successfully amplified in 73.42% and 60...

A previous cross-sectional serological survey of various age groups (0-55 years) of the Malaysian normal population showed that cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is highly endemic in Malaysia. A total of 1,688 infants (0-4 months) with congenital abnormalities were screened for evidence of congenital CMV infection and the rest of the TORCHES (TOxoplasmosis, Rubella, Cytomegalovirus, HErpes simple...

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is known to be the most common opportunistic infection in immunocompromised cases, and CMV retinitis ocular manifestation. Severe with involvement of macula or retinal necrosis can lead vision loss. Prompt diagnosis treatment restrict disease's progression. We describe case a 30-year-old man who presented chief complaint progressive diminution both eyes for 15 days. Diminu...

Objective To characterize T-cell receptors (TCRs) and identify target epitopes in multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were obtained from 39 MS patients 19 healthy controls (HCs). TCR repertoires for α/β/δ/γ chains, diversity, V/J usage determined by next-generation sequencing. β chain compared with affectation status using a novel clustering method, Grouping of L...

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a significant opportunistic pathogen in immunocompromised patients. Virus circulating in the donors or the recipients of solid organ transplants places the latter group at risk of developing CMV disease. The prevention of serious complications in them relies on defining potential risk factors and on the early detection of the presence and replication of CMV. We report a...

Active cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection was treated successfully by only CMV antibody-enriched immunoglobulin (CMV-IG) in a renal transplant recipient. CMV-IG was injected at 86 mg/kg i.v. twice a day for a total of 16 days (4 plus 12 days, interrupted by a pause of 4 days), followed by weekly i.v. injection of 86 mg/kg (7 weeks). Active CMV infection was diagnosed on the basis of DNAemia in pla...

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and disease are important causes of morbidity and mortality among transplant recipients. For the purpose of developing consistent reporting of CMV in clinical trials, definitions of CMV infection and disease were developed and published. This study seeks to update the definitions of CMV on the basis of recent developments in diagnostic techniques, as well as to a...

AIM To identify definitions of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and intestinal disease, in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), to determine the prevalence associated with these definitions. METHODS We conducted a systematic review and interrogated PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane for literature on prevalence and diagnostics of CMV infection and intestinal disease in IBD patients. As medical headings ...
