Objectives: To evaluate the prevalence of the most common cytomegalovirus (CMV) UL97
mutations associated with ganciclovir resistance directly in polymorphonuclear leukocytes …

Background: Treatment of cytomegalovirus (CMV) diseases with protracted administration of
ganciclovir can promote the development of resistant CMV that is associated with a poor …

Objectives: To study the temporal relationships between cytomegalovirus (CMV) viral load
and specific UL97 mutations in polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) and plasma samples …

Abstract Background The cytomegalovirus (CMV) UL97 gene can be sequenced either from
blood specimens directly amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or from culture …

Objective: To investigate the correlation between genotypic studies performed on blood
leukocytes and phenotypic results obtained from the corresponding blood viral isolates in …

The emergence of mutations conferring ganciclovir resistance was evaluated in an open-
label randomized clinical trial that compared oral valganciclovir with intravenous ganciclovir …

Objectives: To determine whether recurrence of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) viraemia
during maintenance ganciclovir for cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis correlates with (i) CMV …

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis is among the most common opportunistic infections in
patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. In a prospective study of 210 patients …

PURPOSE: To determine whether cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis that responded poorly to
intravenous ganciclovir therapy but responded to the ganciclovir implant was caused by …

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) UL97 mutations associated with ganciclovir resistance at codons
460, 594, and 595 were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by restriction …
