DOIAbstract
<p>Kaplan-Meier curves were used to analyze the prognostic significance of the relative numbers of CD8. The relative number of CD8 T cells were analyzed by calculating the ratio between the numbers of CD8 T cells and Monoclonal B Clone (MBC) (T/NK cells: MBC ratio) as previously described (4). Patients with relative CD8 T cell count >0.03 (green line) showed significantly higher time to treatment than those with lower numbers of CD8 T cells (blue line). Statistical differences were analyzed by long-rank test.</p
