F3-150

Rai modified stage at diagnosis.

F3-151

β2-microglobulin serum count was obtained in 63 patients.

F3-152

Lymphocyte doubling time (as increasing percent in 6 months).

F3-153

P for the comparison among mutated and unmutated subgroups was calculated using the χ2 test.

F3-155

P refers to 1-way ANOVA test.
