Sequence analysis of two variable cytomegalovirus genes for distinction between transfusion- and breast milk-transmitted infections in a very-low-birthweight infant.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Pulmonary endothelial cell damages caused by neutrophil overactivation could result in acute lung injuries including transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI). We previously reported that heme-related molecules derived from hemolysis induced the production of reactive oxygen species from neutrophils. Rec...
