intravenous ganciclovir for 6 weeks has been shown to improve audiologic outcomes at 6 …

The genetic content of wild-type human cytomegalovirus was investigated by sequencing
the 235 645 bp genome of a low passage strain (Merlin). Substantial regions of the genome (…

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and disease are important causes of morbidity and
mortality in transplant recipients. For the purpose of developing consistent reporting of CMV …

Background Cytomegalovirus (CMV) continues to be a major problem post-transplantation;

Previous functional brain imaging studies suggest that the ability to infer the intentions and
mental states of others (social cognition) is mediated by medial prefrontal cortex. Little is …

Background Cytomegalovirus end-organ disease can be prevented by giving ganciclovir
when viraemia is detected in allograft recipients. Values of viral load correlate with …

The primary varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection results in chickenpox (varicella), which is
transmitted via the airborne route. VZV is highly infectious, but in the USA the incidence of …
