We tested in univariate analysis, the variables that could impact outcome after AZA were as follows: age, gender, ferritin level, LDH level, albumin level, number of cytopenias, transfusion dependence, AML, poor karyotype (IPSS score), poor and very poor karyotype (IPSS‐R score), high‐risk IPSS score, high and very high‐risk IPSS‐R score, RDI <80% before and after getting BOR. This evidence concerns the gene ALB and acute myeloid leukemia.
