Key points: We propose a new definition of lower respiratory tract disease based on
Ac
the viral detection site that correlates with clinical outcome. Monocyte count, oxygen use and high-dose steroid are associated with mortality after parainfluenza virus lower respiratory tract disease.

Abstract
Background. Parainfluenza virus (PIV) commonly infects patients following
hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), frequently causing lower respiratory tract disease (LRD). The definition of LRD significantly differs among studies evaluating
us an
Methods. We retrospectively evaluated 544 HCT recipients with laboratory-confirmed
M
PIV and classified LRD into three groups: possible (PIV detection in upper respiratory tract with new pulmonary infiltrates with/without LRD symptoms), probable (PIV
pt ed
detection in lung with LRD symptoms without new pulmonary infiltrates), and proven (PIV detection in lung with new pulmonary infiltrates with/without LRD symptoms).
Results. Probabilities of 90-day survival after LRD were 87%, 58% and 45% in
ce
possible, probable and proven cases, respectively. Patients with probable and proven
Ac
LRD had significantly worse survival than those with upper respiratory tract infection (probable; HR, 5.87; p
