Summary
Use of gamma-globulin prophylaxis seemed to be protective against the occurrence of disseminated cytomegalovirus disease and the Cox proportional hazards model identified positive donor cytomeglovirus serology as the single most important risk factor for subsequent development of cytomeGalovirus infection, regardless of recipient cytome Galvirus serological status.
