OR = Odds Ratio. CI = Confidence Interval. Percent CD3+ T-Cells, CD4+ T-Cells and CD8+ T-Cells are the percent of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) which are CD3+ (T-Cells), CD4+ or CD8+ respectively. Percent CD4 IFN-γ+ and Percent CD8+ IFN-γ+ T-Cells are the percent of cultured PBMC which secrete interferon gamma in response to BKPyV antigen stimulation. Cause of Renal Failure, see Table 1. MMF = mycophenolate mofetil.
