Perhaps no single cause of birth defects and developmental disabilities in the United States currently provides greater opportunity for improved outcomes in more children than congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV). --Cannon and Davis. BMC Public Health 2005;5:70 Each year in the United States, thousands of children and their families are affected by congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. More children may be affected by congenital CMV than by other, better known childhood conditions, such as Down syndrome, fetal alcohol syndrome, and spina bifida. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has formed a Workgroup on Congenital CMV, led by the National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities and the National Center on Infectious Diseases. This report provides background on congenital CMV infection and describes the goals and activities of the workgroup for reducing the burden of sequelae of congenital CMV infection.
在美国，目前或许没有任何一种导致出生缺陷和发育障碍的单一病因，能比先天性巨细胞病毒（CMV）为更多儿童带来改善预后的更大机会。——坎农和戴维斯。《BMC公共卫生》2005年；第5卷：第70页 在美国，每年都有成千上万的儿童及其家庭受到先天性巨细胞病毒（CMV）感染的影响。受先天性CMV影响的儿童可能比受其他更为人熟知的儿童疾病，如唐氏综合征、胎儿酒精综合征和脊柱裂影响的儿童更多。疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）已组建了一个先天性CMV工作组，由国家出生缺陷与发育障碍中心和国家传染病中心牵头。本报告提供了先天性CMV感染的背景信息，并描述了该工作组为减轻先天性CMV感染后遗症负担所设定的目标和开展的活动。
