The assessed γδ T cell percentages in the 16 CMV-act patients were grouped in five main periods: the first corresponding to times not immediately preceding CMV
activation (basal); the second one to the time immediately preceding CMV activation (pre-activation); the third one to the period when CMV activation was present
(activation); the fourth one to the time immediately after the negativization of CMV (early negativization) and the fifth one corresponding to observation times occurring
later in the negativization process (late negativization.A significant increase in γδ T cell percentages was observed in the early negativization period.
Mean ± SD; * p<0.05, ** p<0.01, *** p<0.001, all vs early negativization period.
