CI indicates confidence interval; OR, odds ratio; aGVHD, acute graft-versus-host disease; URD, unrelated donor; MRD, matched related donor; PMRD, partially matched related donor; MDS myelodysplastic syndrome; CLL, chronic lymphocytic leukemia; CML, chronic myelogenous leukemia; HD, Hodgkin disease; NHL, non-Hodgkin lymphoma; ALL, acute lymphoblastic leukemia; AML, acute myelogenous leukemia.

In a univariate logistic regression, CMV seropositivity group (R−/D+, R+/D+, or R+/D−), underlying disease, and donor type were all associated with an increased likelihood of CMV reactivation (P < .050). A trend toward increased reactivation was seen with steroid use and aGVHD. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that only CMV seropositivity group and disease type were associated with increased odds of reactivation; adjusted ORs are shown for the variables included in this analysis, ND indicates multivariable analysis was not done.
