Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) curves based on bax/bcl-2 ratio levels.

(A) Kaplan-Meier plot comparing survival based on the detection of more than 0.3 bax/bcl-2 ratio or less than 0.3 bax/bcl-2 ratio. More than 0.3 bax/bcl-2 pts experienced a significantly longer OS (P = .000 01). (B) AML pts with bax/bcl-2 ratio more than 0.3 showed a significant longer DFS as compared with pts with lower than 0.3 (P = .019).
