Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of perinatal and postnatal cytomegalovirus(CMV) infection on infantile physical development and nerves mental growth. Methods We observed forty-eight cases of perinatal and postnatal CMV infection infants and twenty-two cases of non-CMV infected infants. We compared the physical development between two groups at birth ,3 months and 1 year of age, and evaluated development quotient (DQ) at 1 year of age. Results There were no significant differences of baby length,weight, head circumference between two groups at birth and 3 months (P > 0.05). The averages of baby length,weight,and head circumference were all in the normal range,which showed no significant differences between two groups(P > 0. 05). There were no significant differences in DQ of rough movement,accurate movement, adaptability, language and sociality ability between two groups at 1 year of age (P > 0.05). The averages of total DQ were in the normal range, which showed no significant difference between two groups as well (P > 0. 05). According to the evaluation hierarchies, DQ values of two groups were mostly in normal level range, and there also was no significant difference(x2 = 1. 026, P > 0. 05). Conclusion The perinatal and postnatal cytomegalovirus(CMV) infection has no significant adverse effects on infantile physical development and neuro-psychological development.
