To ascertain which mononuclear cell subset deficiency plays a role in the marrow transplant recipient's susceptibility to infections, mononuclear cell subset counts were prospectively determined in 108 patients on day 80. Infections occurring between day 100 and 365 were recorded by an investigator blinded to the subset counts. In univariate analyses, the counts of the following subsets showed a significant inverse correlation with infection rates: total B cells, IgD(+) B cells, IgD(-) B cells, total CD4 T cells, CD28(+) CD4 T cells, CD28(-) CD4 T cells, CD45RA(low/-) CD4 T cells and monocytes. In multivariate analyses, the counts of the following subsets remained significantly inversely correlated with the infection rates: total B cells (P =.0004) and monocytes (P =.009). CD28(-) CD8 T-cell counts showed no correlation with infection rates. In conclusion, the susceptibility of patients to infections late posttransplant may be due in part to the slow reconstitution of B cells and monocytes.
