  1. P values are for G-CSF use with Dex 1 day and multiday versus Dex (−), as determined by Fisher’s exact test
  2. Onset day of G-CSF first use data are mean ± SD. P values are for onset day of G-CSF use with Dex (1 day or multiday) versus Dex (−), as determined by ANOVA with post hoc Tukey’s test
