Abbreviations: Chr, chromosome; PS, performance status according to the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group scale; Hb, hemoglobin levels; Ca, calcium levels; Creat, creatinine levels; Bone, lytic bone lesions; Stage, Durie & Salmon clinical stage; β₂M, β₂ microglobulin serum levels; Crp, C-reactive protein levels; PC, percentage of BM plasma cells (morphology); BJ, Bence Jones protein; Resp, response to first line of treatment; —, no relationship; ↑, higher in cases with the chromosome abnormality; ↓, lower in cases with the chromosome abnormality (with statistical significance [P < .05]).
