Not all symptoms and laboratory values were assessed for every patient; therefore, the ratios of symptoms present over those assessed are given for the TAFRO criteria, and the specific sample sizes are shown for each laboratory value provided.

IgG, immunoglobulin G; SD, standard deviation; ULN, upper limits of normal; VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factor.
