Figure 3 Adjusted RRs (95% CI) for infection in the NiCord and standard UCB groups. Estimates are adjusted for age at transplantation, disease status, and acute grade II-IV GVHD by Poisson regression analysis (n = 104).

Figure 4 Days alive and out of the hospital in the first 100 days by study group (unadjusted mean; 95% CI). Each data point represents the number of days spent out of the hospital by an individual patient in the first 100 days. A value of 0 indicates hospitalization during the entire 100 days or death during the initial hospital stay.
