Figure 1. The inverted CD4/CD8 ratio is associated with poor outcome in CLL patients.

Figure 1

(A) and (B) Histograms illustrating the absolute numbers of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in 234 Chinese CLL patients, respectively. (C) CD4/CD8 ratio was determined for the same group of CLL patients with the threshold between normal and inverted ratio being 1. (D and E) Kaplan-Meier survival analysis of TTFT and OS according to CD4/CD8 ratio; inverted ratio group referring to those below the cut-off value of 1, and normal ratio group as those above the cut-off value of 1 (p = 0.031 and p = 0.039, respectively).
