[Screening with latex IgM reagent on umbilical cord blood for demonstration of intrauterine infections].
The AA. have found IgM in cord sera of 903 newborns. In 13 (1.44%) there was an increase of IgM and the control made on neonatal serum within the first 5 days from birth has shown a positive result only in 1 case (7.69% of positives). The AA. present, in the conclusions, some considerations that justify the results of their work.
