## Abstract Whether valaciclovir (VCV) prophylaxis could be responsible for ganciclovir (GCV)βresistance of __Human cytomegalovirus__ (HCMV) in transplantation has never been documented. A multicentric retrospective pilot study was undertaken to detect GCVβresistance through mutations within the __
The value of IgM detection for the early diagnosis of an active cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in renal transplant recipients was evaluated prospectively. Sequential serum samples obtained from 22 allograft recipients with active CMV infection were tested for the presence of CMV-specific immunoglob
## Abstract Sera from 50 orthotopic liver transplant recipients were examined for antibodies to human herpesvirus 6 (HHVβ6) and Cytomegalovirus (CMV), and the findings correlated with the clinical condition of the patients. Both primary and secondary HHVβ6 infections were detected seroβlogically fo
