Data were missing for some variables: ethnicity (n = 28), Down status (n = 23), immunophenotype (n = 24), FAB type (n = 204), BM blasts (n = 167), enlarged spleen (n = 18), enlarged liver (n = 19), anterior mediastinal mass (n = 35), and hemoglobin (n = 18).

The percentage of patients surviving event-free and overall is given plus the 95% CIs.

The observed-expected ratio was calculated from the log-rank test.
