Detection of parvovirus B19 viral DNA in serum of women of childbearing age in Xiangyang City / 公共卫生与预防医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the infection of human parvovirus B19 among women of childbearing age in Xiangyang City, and to provide a reference for pregnant women's health care. Methods A total of 303 women of childbearing age in Xiangyang City from 2018 to 2019 were selected as the research subjects. B19 virus DNA in serum of the subjects was detected by nested PCR technology. The differences in the detection rate of B19 viral DNA among normal pregnancy, abnormal pregnancy, and infertility serum were statistically analyzed. The differences in the detection rate of B19 virus DNA among women of childbearing age at different ages were compared. Results The detection rate of B19 viral DNA in all 303 women of child-bearing age was 27.72%. The detection rate of B19 virus DNA in 26-35 year old women was higher than that in other age groups. The detection rate of B19 virus DNA in abnormal pregnancy group was significantly higher than that in normal pregnancy group (P <0.05). Conclusion The detection rate of B19 virus DNA in abnormal pregnancy and infertility group was significantly higher than that in normal pregnancy group, with the detection rate of B19 virus in 26-35 year old women of childbearing age being the highest among all age groups. It is necessary to strengthen the screening of B19 virus in pregnant women of childbearing age in this region to reduce its impact on fetal abortion.
