  1. Aberration: Age (Y), Age (year); n, number of patients; TET2 GM-Alone, TET2 germline mutation alone; TET2 GM-others, TET2 germline mutation simultaneously with other gene mutations; VAF, variate allele frequency; MDS/AML, myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia
  2. A value of P less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant
