DOI: 10.1007/s12185-019-02813-9
Abstract: We have previously reported that haematopoietic progenitor cell transplantation recipients with biopsy-negative acute Gastrointestinal Graft versus Host Disease (Discordant GVHD) demonstrate superior survival compared to “True Positive” cases. We aimed to elucidate this discrepancy by… read more here.
