Distribution of age at transplantation for kidney recipients with different EBV status at transplantation/follow up, divided by those who developed chronic high EBV load (CHL) and non-CHL. Younger age and more EBV naive children at transplantation (tx) are seen in the CHL group in red compared to the non-CHL group in blue. Fourteen non-CHL and 11 CHL patients had a primary EBV infection. Seventeen non-CHL and three CHL patients had a reactivated EBV infection. Seven non-CHL patients that were EBV seropositive at transplantation stayed negative in EBV DNA measured by PCR method post-transplant
