When all infants were analysed together, the only TLR agonist/cytokine combination affected by HCMV infection was a lower TNF-α to HKLM stimulation in the HCMV infected as compared to the uninfected group (p = 0.04 unadjusted, 0.066 adjusted) (Table 2). The gene discussed is TNF; the disease is cytomegalovirus infection.
