Table 2.

Salivary flow rates of allo-HSCT patients and healthy adult subjects

Study Group	Number of subjects	Salivary flow rate ^a	P value ^b
Oral cGVHD(+)	37	0.37 ml/min ± 0.23	-
Oral cGVHD(-)	15	0.415 ml/min ± 0.16	0.49
Elderly adults	10	0.415 ml/min ± 0.05	0.53
Young adults	10	0.45 ml/min ± 0.1	0.30

flow rates are shown in ml/min ± 1 standard deviation (SD)

P values are shown comparing the salivary flow rate of each group of subjects to the oral cGVHD(+) patient population, using a two-tailed Student t-test
