title: [Prognostic significance of some clinical and laboratory parameters in patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia].
abstract: The correlations between select clinical and laboratory data recorded at the time of diagnosis in 125 chronic myelogenous leukemia patients (60 men and 65 women) and survival time these patient was analysed. All patients were treated with similar methods. Characteristics for which there was evidence of associations with shorter survival outcome were older age, anemia, high percentage of peripheral and marrow blasts and thrombocytopenia or thrombocytosis. There was no evidence of statistically significant prognostic value such parameters as: sex, presence of symptoms, hepatosplenomegaly, high leukocytosis (WBC), high proportion of circulating promyelocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils and serum LDH or leukocyte alkaline phosphatase activity. Peripheral basophilia appeared to have advantage prognostic relevance to survival time. The median survival time observed patients was 38-65 months.
