^aFollow-up y since HSCT

^b P value compared with healthy controls

^cMedian (range)

^dMean (range)

^ƒRepresents value at 1 year follow-up time point since HSCT compared with baseline; authors stated no change in lumbar spine BMD after adjusting for 1 year change in height SD but actual results not reported.
