Cases vs Control Analysis
Of the patients with AIHA, 7 patients had acute GVHD in the first 100
days after transplant, while 14 had acute GVHD in the control group
(p>0.99). In the first year after transplant, 8 of the AIHA
cases and 13 controls had acute GVHD (p=0.38), and 8 of the AIHA cases
and 14 controls had chronic GVHD (p=0.54).
Lymphocyte subsets were checked within 1-month post-AIHA diagnosis in 8
of the AIHA cases; 3 additional cases had lymphocyte subsets checked in
the month prior to diagnosis. Lymphocyte subsets were obtained in 25
controls within the first-year post-transplant. Given these small
numbers, statistical calculations of comparisons were not performed.
