“…The pups displayed physical abnormalities that resembled hydrops fetalis, which is an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the fetus. Hydrops fetalis is seen in RVFV-infected livestock ( 36 ) and has been noted as a prominent occurrence in pregnant women infected with parvovirus and Zika ( 37 , 38 ). Most humans infected with RVFV develop mild febrile disease, and our study suggests that mild infection of pregnant women may still have devastating impacts on the developing fetus.…”

“…All aborted women were CMV IgM negative while CMV IgG was almost close (95 %). 15 It may be due to the differences in traditions and social habits and hygiene standards. In the present study, the rate of CMV IgG and CMV IgM in aborted women living in rural areas than in those living in urban.…”

Abortion is one of the most common health problems in the world, its causes vary, and some of them are viral. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is one of the causes of abortion. So, this study aims to investigate the seroprevalence of CMV antibodies among aborted women. This study was a cross-sectional study conducted in Ibb city-Yemen. Serum samples were collected between September 2021 to April 2022. The serum samples were analyzed for IgG and IgM antibodies to CMV by Electro-Chemiluminescence Immunoassay (ECLIA). Overall, 150 aborted women were enrolled. Amongst these cases, 148 out of 150 (98.67%) were positive for CMV IgG antibodies. Additionally, 11 out of 150 (7.33%) of the samples were positive for CMV IgM antibodies. The CMV IgG seroprevalence was not significantly influenced by age, residence, education level, socioeconomic status and abortion time. In addition, the CMV IgM seroprevalence was significantly associated with education level, socioeconomic status and abortion time. In conclusion, the low rate of CMV IgM and a high proportion of CMV IgG for most major of abortion women in this study suggest that CMV may not be the common factor leading to abortion.

“…During pregnancy, viral infections may or may not cause clinical indications in the mother. Viruses that have crossed the placental barrier and entered the fetus could have catastrophic consequences for fetal development [6,7]. Because their CNS is not fully developed at birth or is still immature after birth, fetuses, and infants are at greater risk of viral damage.…”

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disease that includes a wide range of functional impairments, such as social and communication deficiencies, as well as limited and selective interest and behavioral patterns that are repetitive. Children with ASD often show developmental delay, which is noticeable at an early age, and show a wide range of symptoms that interfere with daily functioning, so early diagnosis includes early interventions. A complex set of genetic and environmental factors is associated with the development of ASD, which makes ASD a complex disorder, so there is a clear distinction between neurodivergent and neurotypical individuals. Since ASD is caused by a combination of certain genetic mutations and the prenatal/postnatal environment, we focused on the etiology of ASD in viral infections, i.e., Cytomegalovirus (CMV) as a possible cause of ASD. CMV is a neurotropic herpesvirus, which can be transmitted from mother to child during pregnancy. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, which is often asymptomatic and can remain latent throughout life, can pose a danger to immune insufficiency individuals during pregnancy. CMV is the most common pathogen that causes intrauterine infections, is the most common cause of nongenetic sensorineural hearing loss in children, and the main cause of neurodevelopmental delay, so research suggests an association between congenital CMV infection with ASD and maternal seropositivity for CMV in pregnancy. spectrum in children. In the research, we used various online databases as sources for our study. The result of our research and processing of the given information indicates that maternal CMV infection in pregnancy is related to the development of autism spectrum disorders in children.
