Prognosis significance of 5-hydroxymethylcystosine levels. Normalized %5-hmC was measured by ELISA in B cells from a 15 ZAP70− and 15 ZAP70+ patients or b 14 LPL− and 16 LPL+ patients or c 17 CD38− and 13 CD38+ patients. Median percentages are shown in red. Statistical differences were assessed using the Mann–Whitney non-parametric test. d Kaplan–Meier curves for TFS are shown for 15 patients with high (red) and 15 low (green) %5-hmC. The median value was used as the cut-off. Statistical differences between the curves were calculated using the log-rank test
