Adjusted for sex, race/ethnicity, BMT era, time from BMT to study entry, age at BMT, primary diagnosis, stem cell source, disease status at BMT, BMT type, cGvHD, conditioning intensity, TBI, cyclophosphamide, nitrosoureas, busulfan, fludarabine, household income, educational status, chronic health conditions, mental health, physical activity status, alcohol consumption (ever), and total years of smoking. Survivors with missing smoking status were excluded from this analysis.
