METHODS:
We retrospectively reviewed the charts of patients who underwent HSCT at
our hospital from 2008 to 2018, to report their demographic data,
diagnoses, age at diagnosis, diagnostic delay, time to transplant, type
of HSCT, donors, conditioning regime, engraftment, complications,
chimerism, survival rate and outcomes.
We used descriptive statistics, including proportions and measures of
central tendency. Tables were built on MS Excel. This retrospective
study is exempt from institutional review board approval. All authors
endorse the World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki on ethical
principles for medical research involving human subjects. We kept the
identities of patients confidential, and we have no conflict of
interests.
