Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the relationship between platelet concentration and the viability of post-thaw CD34 cells in autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplants, suggesting that lower postCD34 viability may lead to delayed engraftment.
  • A significant negative correlation between platelet concentration and postCD34 recovery was found, particularly in patients with platelet counts between 1500-2000 ×10/L.
  • The data indicates that both low and high platelet concentrations negatively impact postCD34 recovery, with specific subsets of patients exhibiting these trends based on their type of lymphoma or myeloma.
