Clinical characteristics of patients with underlying hematological disease with (cases) or without (controls) invasive aspergillosis after allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Legenda: IA: invasive aspergillosis; IQR: interquartile range, ASCT: allogeneic stem cell transplantation, CMV: Cytomegalovirus, AML: acute myeloid leukemia, CML: chronic myeloid leukemia, NHL: non-Hodgekin's lymphoma, ALL: acute lymphocytic leukemia, CLL: chronic lymphocytic leukemia, MDS: myelodysplastic syndrome.†: Prolonged neutropenia was defined as absolute neutrophil count 3 for a period of more than 14 days.¶: IgG positive prior to transplantation. GVHD: graft versus host disease;‡: p-values were calculated by student-t test for continous- and Fishers exact test for binary data.*: The distribution of hematological diseases was comparable between groups (Pearson Chi-Square test p = 0.85).
