Survival curves. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were generated to calculate OS. OS among patients in whom TED profile was obtained (TED) compared with patients in whom sample was adequate but no cells were found undergoing TED (NoTED). There was a significant difference in OS between TED and NoTED among (A) all patients: MDS (n = 108) and RARS-T (n = 6) (P = .0001), (B) RCMD patients (P = .0045), and (C) RAEB (RAEB-1 and RAEB-2) patients (P = .029). (D) We also found a difference in OS between patients with TED and SF3B1 or SRSF2 mutations (P = .0132). (E) IPSS-R very low and low categories (P = .0278); (F) very low, low, and intermediate categories (P < .0001); (G) intermediate, high, and very high categories (P = .0062); and (H) high and very high categories (P = .0059). Log-rank tests were used to compare the curves. The tables below the curves indicate the number of patients at risk in each group.
