ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; WBC, white blood cell.

*

P values were calculated by means of nonparametric Wilcoxon rank-sum test for continuous variables and χ-square test for categorical variables. — indicates not applicable.

230 μmol/L is equal to 2× normal value.

Hepatic abnormality as defined by ALT >2.5×normal value or AST >2.5× normal value, while renal abnormality as defined by creatinine >2.5× normal value.

§

CN-AML: cases having no cytogenetically identifiable abnormalities.

||

Unfavorable: inv(3)/t(3;3), t(9;22), 11q23 abnormalities, −5, −7, del(5q),del(7p), and complex karyotype.
