Hypothesis-generating data. (A) Correlation between day 5 peripheral blood (PB) concentration of CD34⁺ cells ([CD34⁺]) and concentration of CD34⁺CD38^– cells ([CD34⁺CD38^–]) (in cells/μl). The r value was obtained using Pearson correlation. (B) Kaplan–Meier probability of relapse based on day 5 PB [CD34⁺CD38^–] <10/μl or >10/μl. Probabilities of relapse were estimated using the Kaplan–Meier product limit method with comparison between groups evaluated by the log-rank statistic.
