Seropositive showed in 1 patient (4.3%) and seronegative in 23 (95.8%). The number of males was seropositive in 2(4.5%) and seronegative in 42 (95.5%) and total numbers of females were seropositive in 5(10%) and seronegative in 45(90%). Seroprevalence of CMV IgM antibodies among cardiovascular patients give positive results in 7(7.4%) and seroprevalence of CMV IgM antibodies give negative result in 87 (92.5%).
Conclusion
This study reported that the prevalence of CMV infections among the study population at Khartoum state, CMV-IgM positive present in 7.4% of all cardiovascular patients. By ELISA technique we can be able to detect the prevalence of the CMV- IgM antibodies in cardiovascular patients.
