Figure 1.
Patient survival by weighted gain. (A) Overall survival of all 126 patients following HDM-SCT by Kaplan-Meier method. Differences in survival were calculated by log-rank test. Patients with 2% or less weight gain during mobilization are represented by the solid line, while the dotted line represents those with more than 2%. Survival was significantly worse for patients who gained more than 2% body weight (P = .004). (B) Survival analyzed by the percentage of body weight gained (≤ 2%, 2%-8.29%, > 8.3%). Mortality was highest in the top 10% (> 8.3%) weight gainers (P = .001).
