ABSTRACT
We studied a cross-sectional survey on prevalence of CMV status (no-infection, infection and clinical disease) in 808 Vietnamese transplant recipients. The proportions of prevalence were 757 (93.7%) with no CMV infection; 48 (5.9%) CMV infection, and 3 (0.4%) CMV clinical disease. The VMV infection proportions were high as 9, and 10.8% for recipients with survival time after transplant < 100 days, and 100 – 540 days, respectively, higher than that for whom who had longer survival time after transplant, > 540 days (> 18 months), 4.0% (p=0.004). The routine risk factors as deceased donor, CMV-negative recipients, allograft rejection, young age at transplant (< 20 yrs.) were not found. Binary logistic analysis showed only the survival time after transplant (≤ 18 months) as independent risk factor for CMV infection with OR: 2.48 [95% CI: 1.3 – 4.74], p=0.006.
