Results are shown as n/N (%), where n indicates number with factor and N indicates number with valid data for factor. P values are from Wald chi-square test in Cox regression. Other variables include white count, creatinine level (univariately significant), LDH level, and second transplantation (univariately significant; time dependent).

HR indicates hazard ratio; 95% CI, 95% confidence interval.
