HSCT, haematopoietic stem cell transplant; nTreg, natural regulatory T cells; pTreg, peripheral regulatory T cells.

Medians (interquartile range). CD4+ is a percentage of CD3+ cells. All other numbers are percentages of total CD3+ CD4+ cells. pTreg is defined as CD3+ CD4+ Helios FoxP3+. nTreg is defined as CD3+ CD4+ Helios+ FoxP3+. P-values are given for the Kruskal–Wallis test.
