database[Title] 2025-12-10
Summary:
CONCLUSIONS: The global burden of CMV-attributable LRI has declined significantly from 1990 to 2021. However, targeted and cost-effective interventions are urgently needed to prevent and reduce the burden of CMV-associated LRI, particularly in low-SDI regions, children, and the elderly.
