CMV indicates cytomegalovirus; TBI, total body irradiation; Ara-C, cytarabin; VP-16, etoposide; MTX + CSA, methotrexate + cyclosporin A; GVH, graft-versus-host; ALG, antilymphocyte globulin.

Continuous variables were treated as categorical in the univariate analysis, typically with the variables split at their medians.
