[Cytomegalovirus infection in newborn and children of nursing age].
The work presents the results of the study on the detection of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in newborns and sucklings, suspected to be of intrauterine origin. 72 infants were examined with the use of immunological and microscopic techniques. In complex clinico-immunological examinations the markers of CMV infection were detected in 48 (66.6%) of sick infants and in 68 (94.4%) of mothers. The analysis of the results of these examinations revealed that the contamination of infants in rural areas was almost twice as high as that of urban infant population. Socio-economic, ecological, ecological and ethnic conditions prevailing on the territory of the Republic of Daghestan contribute to the contamination of women of reproductive age with CMV, thus creating the danger of the intrauterine infection of the fetus, as well as the infection of newborns and sucklings born of women with CMV infection.
