Autologous haematopoietic cell transplantation in elderly patients with multiple myeloma.

abstract：:In a uniform series of 170 untreated myeloma patients (MM) we investigated the distribution of T cell subsets in peripheral blood (PB) and their relationship with the most relevant disease characteristics, including survival. CD4 cells were significantly decreased both in percentage and absolute numbers (P less than 0...
