[Clinical characteristics of cytokine release syndrome after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for thalassemia major].

The children with CRS grade≥3 have an early neutrophil engraftment time, severe and diverse clinical manifestations of CRS, and a high rate of use of glucocorticoids within 4 days after haplo-HSCT. For these children, early use of low-dose glucocorticoids after transplantation may alleviate CRS response and reduce the incidence of aGVHD, thereby bringing more benefits to the children. CRS after haplo-HSCT has no significant impact on the prognosis of the children.
