a)The International Prognostic Index (IPI) was used for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The International Prognostic Score (IPS) was adjusted for patients with Hodgkin lymphoma, and IPS 0 and 1 were classified as low risk, 2 as low-intermediate, 3 as high-intermediate, and ≥4 as high-risk group in this analysis.
