✅ Our result showed, there is no evidence of Cytomegalovirus infection among Behcet's patients. Like other studies IgG antibodies against CMV are prominent among the general population.and Behcet patients. While, IgM against HCMV was positive only in one patients. But, no CMV-DNA detected among 103 Behcet patients. However, the absence of the virus genome in a positive IgM person can be due to the Short-term DNAemia or due to rheumatoid factor interference. In addition, there is a time lag between primary infection and IgM antibody production (IgM level can remain undetectable because of delayed seroconversion owing to immunosuppressive agents). IgM antibodies can also persist for a long time after infection in some healthy individuals.
