As a rule, the TORCH complex includes diseases that affect a person during its greatest sexual activity. They often lead to such complications as female infertility, inexcompanying pregnancy, intrauterine infection of the fetus. To designate the pathogens of this infection, the Torch abbreviation was proposed:
T-Toxoplasmosis;
O-different infections (syphilis, chlamydia);
R-red;
C-cytomegalovirus infection;
H-Herpes;
All these diseases are united by the fact that it affects primarily the nervous system, eyes, endothelium. Therefore, the Torch-infection test is an important component of diagnosis in the early stages of pregnancy. For this purpose, immunosorbent methods of research are used.
