Excerpt

Cytomegalovirus is the most frequent agent of congenital viral infections, affecting approximately 0.2%–2.4% of live births in different countries [1‐7]. Universal screening for congenital cytomegalovirus infection in newborns is not a standard practice considering cost–benefit issues and viability of diagnostic tests. Besides, most newborns are asymptomatic and there is no effective treatment for this population [2‐5]. …
