A Study on Hematopoietic Stem Cell Donation Volunteer Retention between Swab Sampling Approach and Blood Sampling Approach: Evidence from Shanghai, China
The loss of hematopoietic stem cell donation (HSCD) volunteers is widespread worldwide. This study analyzed the distribution characteristics of volunteer retention between the swab sampling approach and blood sampling approach. The Shanghai branch of the China Bone Marrow Donation Program conducted...
