The human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is common and usually causes no symptoms in healthy individuals. However, CMV infections can be life-threatening in individuals with improperly functioning or immature immune systems, such as fetuses. Women can become infected with CMV for the first time (primary infection) during pregnancy. If CMV is transmitted from mother to fetus before the second trimester, the infant can suffer from severe disorders such as hearing loss and delayed development.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a contagious seasonal virus causing respiratory tract infections in people of all ages [1, 2]. There are 2 main antigenic subtypes, RSV-A and RSV-B [1]. The subtypes are cocirculating with alternating predominance across seasons, with a varying pattern [1, 2]. RSV infections usually resolve without complications or sequelae in immune-competent persons [3].

Incidence of Cytomegalovirus Primary and Secondary Infection in Adolescent Girls: Results From a Prospective Study

|
By De Schrevel
| Oxford University Press (OUP)
Abstract Developing a vaccine to prevent congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and newborn disability requires an understanding of infection incidence. In a prospective cohort study of 363 adolescent girls (NCT01691820), CMV serostatus, primary infection, and secondary infection were determined in blood and urine samples collected at enrollment and every 4 months for 3 years. Baseline CMV seroprevalence was 58%. Primary infection occurred in 14.8% of seronegative girls.
