Multiple factors in erythrocytic recovery following ABO-incompatible allogeneic HSCT / 中国实验血液学杂志

ABSTRACT

This study was aimed to investigate various factors influening erythrocyte recovery following ABO-incompatible allogeneic HSCT. 157 patients following ABO-incompatible allogeneic HSCT were selected for the investigation. Cox regression analysis were used to identify the statistically significant factors including sex, age, schemes of transplantation, HLA-matched, mismathed, conditioning regimens, preventive measures for GVHD, occurrence of grade I-II GVHD, CMV infections and types of incompatible blood group. The results showed that minor ABO-incompatible, number of mononuclear cells infused, age of patients and unrelated BMT were four important main factors influening the erythrocyte recovery. In conclusion, the erythrocyte recovery is more quick in patients with minor ABO-incompatible and more number of mononuclear cells infused, while it is slow in patents with old age and unrelated BMT.
