Prevalence and impact of cytomegalovirus primary infection and reactivation on graft function in post-renal transplant recipients

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: This study provides insights into the prevalence of primary CMV infection/reactivation and its impact on graft function, along with the identification of other risk factors and comorbidities, which are essential for improving patient outcomes and optimizing treatment protocols. This study analyzed CMV infections among the CMV PCR-positive post-renal transplant recipients using anti-CMV IgG antibodies avidity enzyme immunoassay to differentiate primary CMV infections from reactivation. In this study, the comparison of graft dysfunction in primary infection/reactivation is assessed, which shows that in primary infection, acute graft dysfunction is more common.
