Maternal Immunity and the Natural History of Congenital Human Cytomegalovirus Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2018
Congenital human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the most common viral infection of the developing fetus, and a significant cause of neurodevelopmental abnormalities in infants and children.

Topology-preserving augmentation for CNN-based segmentation of congenital heart defects from 3D paediatric CMR [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Patient-specific 3D printing of congenital heart anatomy demands an accurate segmentation of the thin tissue interfaces which characterise these diagnoses. Even when a label set has a high spatial overlap with the ground truth, inaccurate delineation of these interfaces can result in topological errors.

Congenital parasitic infections: A review

open access: yesActa Tropica, 2012
This review defines the concepts of maternal-fetal (congenital) and vertical transmissions (mother-to-child) of pathogens and specifies the human parasites susceptible to be congenitally transferred. It highlights the epidemiological features of this transmission mode for the three main congenital parasitic infections due to Toxoplasma gondii ...

Vaccines against toxoplasma gondii : challenges and opportunities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Development of vaccines against Toxoplasma gondii infection in humans is of high priority, given the high burden of disease in some areas of the world like South America, and the lack of effective drugs with few adverse effects.

A re-entrant phase transition in the survival of secondary infections on networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We study the dynamics of secondary infections on networks, in which only the individuals currently carrying a certain primary infection are susceptible to the secondary infection. In the limit of large sparse networks, the model is mapped to a branching process spreading in a random time-sensitive environment, determined by the dynamics of the ...

Natural killer cells attenuate cytomegalovirus-induced hearing loss in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is the most common non-hereditary cause of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) yet the mechanisms of hearing loss remain obscure.

Estimation of the worldwide seroprevalence of cytomegalovirus : a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection does not usually produce symptoms when it causes primary infection, reinfection, or reactivation because these three types of infection are all controlled by the normal immune system.

Mother-to-Child Transmission of Cytomegalovirus and Prevention of Congenital Infection.

open access: yesJournal of the Pediatric Infectious Diseases Society, 2014
Mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of cytomegalovirus (CMV) occurs transplacentally (congenital infection), during birth and through breast milk, although the latter 2 modes of transmission are not associated with the central nervous system sequelae ...
