Data are expressed as the number of recipients (percentage of total in chimerism subgroup).

*

All chimerism was defined as any chimerism lineage measured (T-cell, B-cell, myeloid, whole-blood, or peripheral blood mononuclear cell). If a patient had mixed chimerism (≤95%) in any lineage, it was coded as mixed. The 6-month analysis of autoimmune disease included only patients who were alive and did not have de novo autoimmune disease prior to 6 months after HCT.
