Abbreviations: IQR, interquartile range; PyV, polyomavirus.

a Proportions of adaptive lymphocytes were determined using the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation27 BeadChip array (Illumina Inc., San Diego, California) and an algorithm published by Houseman et al. (45).

b PyV infection was determined using seropositivity for the VP1 protein.

c Percentage of participants who were within each given stratum of PyV seroreactivity. Percentages may not sum to 100 because of rounding.

d P < 0.05 for difference in medians between groups, as determined by the Wilcoxon rank-sum test.
