The aim of this nested case-control study was to evaluate clinical factors associated with the occurrence of congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection in pregnant women with non-primary CMV infection. In a cohort study of CMV screening for 2193 pregnant women and their newborns, seven newborns with congenital CMV infection were identified among 1287 pregnant women with non-primary CMV infection that was defined as negative IgM and positive IgG with IgG avidity index >45%. In the 1287 women with non-primary CMV infection, clinical findings and complications were compared between pregnancies with and without congenital CMV infection. Clinical factors associated with the occurrence of congenital CMV infection were evaluated. The birth weight of newborns with congenital CMV infection was less than that of newborns without congenital infection (p < 0.05). Univariate logistic regression analyses demonstrated that threatened premature delivery (OR 10.6, 95%CI 2.0-55.0; p < 0.01) and multiple pregnancy (OR 7.1, 95%CI 1.4-37.4; p < 0.05) were associated with congenital infection. Multivariable logistic regression analyses demonstrated that threatened premature delivery (OR 8.4, 95%CI 1.5-48.1; p < 0.05) was a single risk factor for congenital CMV infection in pregnant women with non-primary CMV infection. This study revealed for the first time that threatened premature delivery was associated with the occurrence of congenital CMV infection in pregnant women with non-primary CMV infection, the pathophysiology of which may be closely associated with CMV reactivation during pregnancy.
