Overview

Cross-sectional analysis reveals 7.5% prevalence of active CMV and EBV infections in liver transplant candidates, suggesting need for effective prevention strategies.

Key Points

  • The prevalence of active CMV and EBV infections among liver transplant candidates is 7.5%, indicating a significant concern.
  • Of the 34 individuals studied, 97% tested positive for IgG antibodies against both CMV and EBV, highlighting past exposure.
  • This cross-sectional study used a census sampling approach from 2016 to 2021 in a dedicated liver transplant center.
  • These findings underline the importance of timely diagnosis and treatment to improve outcomes for liver transplant patients.
