Analysis of the MV+DTP and DTP groups separately showed that the MV+DTP group had significantly lower IL-1β (p = 0.03), and higher eotaxin (p = 0.035) and TNF responses to TT (p = 0.005) among HCMV infected infants while the DTP alone group showed no significant effect of HCMV infection (Supplementary Table 3). Here, IL1B is linked to cytomegalovirus infection.
