  1. *28/− or *6/− represents mutant homozygous and heterozygous of corresponding loci on UGT1A1
  2. Risk stratification based on NCCN guidelines version 1.2015 acute myeloid leukemia
  3. FAB Classification French–Britain–American Classification, HSCT hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, LDH lactate dehydrogenase, RBC red blood cell, WBC white blood cell
  4. P value was based on χ2 test for categorical variables and student’s t test for continuous variables
