Figure 1 Effect of donor age, estimated from multiple regression model (Table 2). (A) Effect on acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) III-IV, hazard ratio (≥40 versus <40 yr) = 2.57; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.27-5.21; P = .009. (B) Effect on extensive chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), hazard ratio (≥40 versus <40 yr) = 2.06; 95% CI, 1.12-3.79; P = .021. (C) Effect on overall survival, hazard ratio (≥40 versus <40 yr) = 1.66; 95% CI, 1.10-2.51; P = .016.
