Cytomegalovirus infections in allogeneic stem cell recipients after reduced-intensity or myeloablative conditioning assessed by quantitative PCR and pp65-antigenemia
Since the incidence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) may depend on the intensity of the pretreatment, we studied the incidence of CMV infections after re...
