A UGT2B17-positive donor is a risk factor for higher transplant-related mortality and lower survival after bone marrow transplantation.

abstract：:Risk factors for acute graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) remain controversial. We performed uni- and multivariate statistical analyses on a series of 37 patients receiving a non-depleted allogeneic bone marrow transplant from an HLA-identical sibling donor for a haematological malignancy, in order to identify risk fact...
