Abstract
The risk of cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation among hemodialysis (HD) patients is unknown. In 52 HD patients from a single center, CMV serology and quantitative PCR were performed. The detection limit of PCR was 20 copies/ml. Here, PCR ruled out CMV viremia, despite CMV-IgM seropositivity in 15.4% patients.Entities:
