Fig. Correlation of peripheral blood CD34+ cell counts with age in individuals of joint comparison group
Table 1. Characteristics of the studied population
Note: *n — studied population size; **M ± SE — mean ± standard error of the mean; *** — significance level for intergroup differences in etnicity; **** — significance level for intergroup differences in gender; ***** — significance level for intergroup differences in age.
Table 2. Levels of CD34+ cells in peripheral blood of the subjects
Note: Me — median; p1 — significance level for differences in absolute CD34+ cell counts in the groups of individuals born in 1950–1960; p2 — significance level for differences in relative CD34+ cell counts in the groups of individuals born in 1950–1960; p3 — significance level for differences in absolute CD34+ cell counts in the groups of individuals born until 1949 inclusive; p4 — significance level for differences in relative CD34+ cell counts in the groups of individuals born until 1949 inclusive.
