Cytomegalovirus is a herpesvirus that can be transmitted from mother to baby during pregnancy. Congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) can cause damage to the developing central nervous system leading to long-term disabilities including cerebral palsy and hearing loss. This epidemiological research program seeks to investigate cCMV risk factors and burden, opportunities for early detection of neuro-developmental disabilities and to study the effects of postnatal antiviral therapies in this population.

巨细胞病毒是一种疱疹病毒，可以在怀孕期间从母亲传染给婴儿。先天性巨细胞病毒（cCMV）可对发育中的中枢神经系统造成损害，导致长期残疾，包括脑瘫和听力损失。这项流行病学研究计划旨在调查cCMV的风险因素和负担，早期发现神经发育障碍的机会，并研究出生后抗病毒治疗对这一人群的影响。
