Description
Jitka Bolchová and a large registry team published this 2026 study on babies born with cytomegalovirus infection. The infection is the most common one passed before birth and a leading cause of hearing loss and developmental harm in children. Care and screening have changed over the past decade, and the team asked whether outcomes changed with them.
Using an international registry, they compared 1,653 children diagnosed from 2011 to 2024, split at 2017 when European expert guidance appeared. The later group held 1,087 children against 566 in the earlier one. Children were found through pregnancy care, symptoms at birth, hearing checks, and newborn screening. The study tracks how presentation, treatment, and results shifted across the two eras.
