Hematopoietic cell concentrations in cord blood (CB) according to time of day of delivery (A) and month of delivery (B). Means with 95% confidence intervals are shown. P values in parentheses are adjusted for the center. (A) Overall, 61 CB units were collected between 0:00 and 4:00, 101 between 4:00 and 8:00, 270 between 8:00 and 12:00, 378 between 12:00 and 16:00, 160 between 16:00 and 20:00 and 90 between 20:00 and 24:00. Data concerning time of delivery were missing for 67 CB units. BFU-E and CFU-Mix colonies were only measured for CB units analyzed in Center 2 (12 units collected between 0:00 and 4:00, 43 between 4:00 and 8:00, 144 between 8:00 and 12:00, 163 between 12:00 and 16:00, 31 between 16:00 and 20:00 and 16 between 20:00 and 24:00). (B) Overall, 198 CB units were collected in January-February, 224 in March–April, 247 in May–June, 143 in July–August, 146 in September–October and 169 in November–December. BFU-E and CFU-Mix colonies were only measured for CB units analyzed in Center 2 (94 units collected in January–February, 64 in March–April, 97 in May–June, 36 in July–August, 59 in September–October and 59 in November–December). J–F: January–February; M–A: March–April; M–J: May–June; J–A: July–August; S–O: September–October; N–D: November–December. NS: not significant. Question mark indicates that the measurements should be interpreted with caution because they were based on a small sample.
