  • Title: Seroprevalence of cytomegalovirus antibodies in patients attending STD and antenatal clinics.
    Author: Ray K, Mahajan M.
    Journal: J Commun Dis; 1997 Jun; 29(2):85-90. PubMed ID: 9282506.
    Abstract:
    Sera from 368 patients attending sexually transmitted disease (STD) and antenatal clinics were screened for cytomegalovirus (CMV) specific IgG and IgM by indirect ELISA. IgG was detected in 94% of patients tested. CMV IgM seropositivity was found in 8.5% of normal pregnant females and in none of the normal asymptomatic males. CMV-IgM was detected in higher number of patients with STD than in those without STD. There was slightly higher association of CMV IgM antibodies mainly with syphilis in males and chlamydial endocervicitis in females.
