Objective. Human cytomegalovirus infection is highly prevalent in Indian population. It is the commonest congenitally acquired infection
causing various anomalies. The diagnosis of infection in neonates is difficult as IgM may not be detected in all cases. The
polymerase chain reaction is reported as alternative and better option in these patients. However, there is lack of data to
substantiate this preference in a resource poor country like India.Methods : Blood samples from 930 neonates/fetuses were first tested for specific anti-CMV IgM antibodies using μ-capture enzyme linked
immunosorbent assay, Mac-ELISA. Nested PCR was first standardised on clinically and therapeutically confirmed cases of CMV
disease. In the second phase blood samples randomly from 20 babies suspected of CMV infection were collected for serology
and PCR and both tests were run independently. Twenty healthy controls were also included. IgM ELISA and PCR were performed
on these samples and results of these 20 samples were compared to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of each method.Results : Out of 930 serum samples of suspected congenital CMV infection 188 (20.2%) were found positive for CMV specific IgM antibodies.
While comparing the results of 40 paired samples, PCR was found to be highly specific (100%) but less sensitive than Mac-ELISA
(95%) with negative predictive value of 100% and positive predictive value of 95%. Thus in congenital CMV infection Mac-ELISA
was less costly, less cumbersome and more userfriendly.Conclusion : The Mac-ELISA seem to have parallel sensitivity and specificity as PCR for diagnosing congenital CMV infection. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Adenoviruses are associated with a variety of diseases including upper respiratory tract infections, acute conjunctivitis, cystitis and gastroenteritis. Adenoviruses can also cause fatal disseminated infections in patients undergoing stem cell transplantation. Measurement of adenovirus load in clinical samples from localized adenovirus infections or disseminated adenovirus infections may provide important information for analyzing the pathogenesis of various adenovirus infections. The purpose of the present study was to develop and optimize a highly sensitive real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay to detect a wide range of adenoviruses and to detect adenovirus DNA in clinical samples from immunocompetent children. METHODS: Clinical samples of throat swabs and blood were collected from 111 patients suspected of having adenovirus infection. The copy number of adenovirus DNA was measured by real-time PCR assay. RESULTS: SYBR Green real-time PCR assay is able to detect 10-10(6) copies of standard adenovirus DNA per run. Adenovirus DNA was detected in all culture-positive samples serotyped as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 11. Viral loads on throat swabs from immunocompetent children with adenovirus infection ranged from 10(5) to 10(11) copies/mL. Adenovirus DNA was detected in 60% of blood samples and copy number ranged from 10(3) to 10(5) copies/mL. CONCLUSION: SYBR Green real-time PCR is a useful quantitative tool for analysis of adenovirus DNA. The present results for immunocompetent children with adenovirus infections provided basic data for comparison with data obtained from immunocompromised patients. 相似文献

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification was used to detect cytomegalovirus (CMV) in 1000 urine specimens from Chinese newborns for defining the incidence of congenital CMV infection in the Chinese population. The major immediate-early and the late antigen genes of CMV were amplified and detected by gel electrophoresis. There were 18 congenitally infected infants found when tests were performed with one or both primer pairs. Comparing with tissue culture, PCR of both primer sets provided a sensitivity of 94%, a specificity of 100% and a predictive value of positive result of 100%. 相似文献

Diagnosis of neuroborreliosis is often difficult since history and clinical presentation may be non-specific and serological tests may initially be negative. We therefore tested the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the detection of borrelial sequences in CSF and urine samples of consecutive children with neuroborreliosis seen in a single summer season. Four of eight children were negative in serum for antibodies toBorrelia burgdorferi. Two of eight children were PCR-positive in CSF and one other child was positive in urine. In two out of four children PCR was the only laboratory test confirming the clinical diagnosis. All children recovered after treatment with third generation cephalosporins. When seven of eight children were re-examined 6 months later all were healthy and antibodies toB. burgdorferi were detected in their serum. PCR may assist the paediatrician in establishing a diagnosis of neuroborreliosis; however, a negative result does not rule out neuroborreliosis. PCR is an adjunct, but no substitute for clinical judgement and serology. 相似文献

Cross-sectional analysis of children undergoing treatment with anti-epileptic drugs has shown an increased urinary excretion of tubular enzymes and proteins. This has usually been interpreted as a consequence of subclinical renal-tubular damage or enzyme induction. We measured excretion of tubular enzymes and proteins in 29 children who suffered from epileptic seizures and in 27 control children. Investigations were undertaken at diagnosis before the start of treatment and 3-4 months later. At diagnosis we found a slightly, but statistically significant increased excretion of N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase and alpha1-microglobulin. There was no significant difference between patients with an idiopathic and symptomatic aetiology of seizures or between patients with different seizure types. At the second investigation, in children treated with carbamazepine or valproate, no further increase occurred. We conclude that the increased excretion of tubular enzymes and proteins in children with epilepsy is most probably not due to a side-effect of the anti-epileptic drugs, but to a physiological alteration associated with the epilepsy itself. While the cause is unknown, the influence of serotonin metabolism is discussed. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Detection of hepatitis B virus DNA is a reliable evidence of the presence of the viral agent and its replication. Conventional hybridization techniques are limited to detect about 30,000 virions. With the polymerase chain reaction it became possible to extend the sensitivity by amplification of viral sequences. In our study we intended to test whether viral sequences could be found in liver tissue specimens negative for hepatitis B virus DNA by conventional hybridization techniques. METHODS: Hepatitis B virus DNA was detected by PCR in liver tissue of 37 children with chronic hepatitis B, negative for hepatitis B virus DNA by Southern blot hybridization. PCR was performed in a thermal cycler using Taq-polymerase and oligonucleotide primers within the hepatitis B core region. Hepatitis B virus DNA was visualized by ethidium bromide staining and subsequent Southern blot hybridization. RESULTS: 20 patients were HBeAg- and 17 anti-HBe-seropositive. Viral sequences were present in each of the 20 HBeAg positive HBsAg carriers and in 10 patients with anti-HBe. No hepatitis B virus DNA could be found in 7 children, all of them positive for anti-HBe. CONCLUSIONS: Our results confirm polymerase chain reaction to be a more sensitive method to detect hepatitis B virus DNA in the liver compared with conventional hybridization techniques. Every HBeAg positive carrier as well as the majority of anti-HBe positive patients present viral DNA in their liver. Polymerase chain reaction will be suitable to monitor viral replication in spontaneous course and treated patients. 相似文献

A polymerase chain reaction kit (AMPLICOR EV) for the detection of enteroviruses (EV-PCR) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was evaluated in clinical conditions in a prospective blinded-intention study. Forty-three children (mean age 2.7 years) hospitalized for suspected meningitis or fever of unclear etiology were enrolled. EV-PCR was performed on a daily basis. Results were available in less than 2 days in 72% of cases. EV-PCR was positive in nine (21%) children, including three infants without CSF pleocytosis. Knowing their EV-PCR result would have allowed a saving of 18 hospital days and 12 days of antibiotic therapy. The EV-PCR in the CSF can thus be practically useful for children hospitalized for meningitis or fever if available on-site on a daily basis. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Human herpesvirus-6 (HHV6) has been implicated in adult lymphomas but the role that HHV6 has in lymphomagenesis is unclear. Because primary infection occurs in children, a prospective study was undertaken to detect HHV6 in those with pediatric Hodgkin disease (HD). OBSERVATIONS: Tumor was obtained from children with HD entered on a Children's Cancer Group Biology Study. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed using HHV6 primers. All 47 specimens (40 nodular sclerosing; 3 lymphocyte predominant; 3 mixed cellularity; and 1 unclassified) were negative for HHV6. CONCLUSIONS: The results demonstrate no HHV6 sequence in childhood HD. 相似文献
