High Risk of Death Due to Bacterial and Fungal Infection among Cytomegalovirus (CMV)–Seronegative Recipients of Stem Cell Transplants from Seropositive Donors: Evidence for Indirect Effects of Primary CMV Infection

Abstract

The impact of cytomegalovirus (CMV) serostatus (seropositive [(+)] or seronegative [(-)]) of the donor (D) and recipient (R) on mortality after allogeneic non-T cell-depleted stem cell transplantation (SCT) in the era of preemptive therapy was assessed among 1750 patients by means of multivariable Cox regression models. In an analysis that included only pre-SCT variables, D(+)/R(+) and D(+)/R(-) patients had the highest risk for mortality. After neutropenia or the occurrence of CMV disease was controlled for, only D(+)/R(-) patients remained at a significantly higher risk for mortality. Mortality due to bacteremia or invasive fungal infection was higher among D(+)/R(-) (18.3%) than D(-)/R(-) (9.7%) patients (P <.001). Thus, CMV serostatus remains associated with mortality; neutropenia due to ganciclovir administration and CMV disease explain the association with mortality among seropositive recipients. However, in D(+)/R(-) subjects, mortality appears to be associated with bacterial and fungal infection, indicating a possible immunomodulatory effect of primary CMV infection that was undetected despite intensive monitoring.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
