title: [Epidemiological and immunological research on cytomegaly in parturients and newborn infants among the indigenous and immigrant population in the Far North].
abstract: In the immigrant population of the Central Yakutiya, cytomegalic cells in the saliva and urine are found much more frequently than in the indigenous population (P less than 0.001). Significant differences were found in the content of complement-fixing antibody to CMV in parturients and newborns in the Extreme North as compared with the European USSR. While in the latter complement-fixing antibodies to CMV are more frequently found in newborn babies (86% in newborns and 69.8% in parturients), in the Extreme North it is vice versa (52.53% in parturients and 32.73% in newborns). Large numbers of seronegative women of the indigenous and immigrant population becoming pregnant get into the group of risk of infection with CMV which is explained by a high rate of detection of IgM in newborn babies of the indigenous (8.69%) and immigrant (9.8%) population and indicates congenital CMV infection.
