Odds ratios are in rows 1 through 7, relative risk in rows 8 to end.

*

HLA match 5-6/6 (baseline odds ratio of 1.0). For recipients of 2 UCB units we considered the HLA-matching of the worst matched unit.

Single UCB donor unit (baseline odds ratio or relative risk of 1.0).

TNC dose less than 2.9 × 107/kg (baseline odds ratio of 1.0).

§

Presence of ATG in the preparative regimen (baseline relative risk of 1.0).

Causes of transplant-related death at 6 months included GVHD, graft failure, EBV-induced lymphoma, multiple organ failure/infection,12  and hemorrhage.

Absence of high-risk clinical features (baseline relative risk of 1.0).

#

Overall causes of death included disease relapse or progression,27  infection and organ failure,12  GVHD, hemorrhage, and EBV-induced posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease, multiple organ failure, and graft failure.

**

Absence of grades III and IV acute GVHD (baseline relative risk of 1.0).
