Relative risks are derived from multivariate Cox regression. At first, the model included age, FAB, time interval between diagnosis and complete remission, time interval between complete remission and BMT, WBC at diagnosis, and year of BMT. Subsequently, GVHD was examined for additional preditive power.

Abbreviations: RR, relative risk; CI, confidence interval; aGVHD, acute graft-versus-host disease; Int CR-BMT, time interval from complete remission to bone marrow transplantation; cGVHD, chronic GVHD; a/cGVHD, acute and chronic GVHD.
