We evaluated several clinical variables and their influence on CD8 + T-cell reconstitution, and none of them correlated significantly with faster CD8 + T-cell reconstitution at the time point of 28 days post-transplant, although there was a slight trend towards faster CD8 + T-cell recovery in patients with higher CD34 + -cell dose in the graft (P = 0.20).
