In 45 liver transplant recipients, the value of weekly monitoring of cytomegalovirus (CMV)
antigenemia for early diagnosis of active CMV infection was compared with serology and …

A prospective virologic follow-up of solid organ transplant patients was designed to
determine the usefulness of antigenemia and viremia as virologic markers for the diagnosis …

A recently published technique for direct detection of cytomegalovirus (CMV) antigenemia
was tested prospectively in 27 transplant recipients. Eighteen patients developed active …

Sixty-six patients who had undergone 78 liver transplantations, with no detectable
cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection before transplantation, were studied to assess the value of …

In earlier work we demonstrated that CMV immediate early antigens can be detected in
peripheral blood leukocytes of patients with active CMV infection. We now report a …

This study compared culture, including the shell vial procedure, with serology, including IgM
cytomegalovirus (CMV) antibody testing, for the diagnosis of CMV infection in 42 subjects …

An assay was developed for the detection of cytomegalovirus (CMV) antigens in blood
leukocytes and evaluated for its diagnostic significance in six heart transplant recipients …
