O/E indicates observed-to-expected events ratio from the log-rank test.

*

See “Patients, materials, and methods” for a full definition of the individual cytogenetic subgroups.

Observed-to-expected ratios and P value derived from the log-rank test comparing the outcome of each cytogenetic group to all other Philadelphia-negative patients with a successful cytogenetic result, except for the total group which was compared with patients with a failed cytogenetic result or without cytogenetics.

Philadelphia-negative cases with a successful cytogenetic result.

§

These groups exclude cases with low hypodiploid/near triploidy, high hyperdiploidy, and tetraploidy.

Abnormal karyotypes, excluding those with any of the above abnormalities.
