Correlation of the high and low group of peripheral CD4⁺ T cell or CD8⁺CD122⁺ T cell with short time survival(< 90 or < 180 days) using the chi-square test. Peripheral CD4⁺ T cells did not correlate with the early survival time (< 90 days, < 180 day) in patients with MPC (P = 0.58, P = 0.82). However, the high CD8⁺CD122⁺ T cell group was significantly associated with the short survival time with an obviously higher number of patients whose survival was < 90 days compared with the low CD8⁺CD122⁺ T cell group (P < 0.0001)
