D0–30, day 0 through day 30 post-transplant; D31–100, day 31 through day 100 post-transplant. Patients were counted once for assessment of overall positive and negative blood cultures. When described in the time frames of interest, a patient may be counted once in each time frame. Mortality is expressed as mortality in the first 100 days post-transplant. Only p values ≤ 0.05 are shown.
