CD20\u2010positive B cells in group R remained at a very low level after rituximab treatment and need about 15\u00a0months to return to normal level, which was longer than group C (six months). The incidence of infection in these two groups has no significant difference, which was 34.7% (17\/30) in group R and 32.5% (13\/28) in group C (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a0.976).
