YOUNGER IS BETTER Percentage of younger donors increases each year at Ezer Mizion’s Bone Marrow Registry.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Many people wonder why there is an age limit on registration with Ezer Mizion\u2019s Bone Marrow Registry<\/strong>. In addition to the more obvious reason of the younger potential donor<\/strong> remaining on the database for decades – a big plus considering the high cost of each genetic testing – there is another factor to be considered. The success rate using cells from a younger donor<\/strong> is significantly higher than when using cells from an older person.<\/p>\n

The following statements are extracted from a report by CIBMTR (Center for International Blood & Marrow Transplant Research): Studies show that younger stem cell donors<\/strong> result in better patient survival rates. Overall survival decreases with increasing donor age, making age \u2013 after tissue type matching – the most important factor in choosing an unrelated stem cell donor<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Maintaining a young donor population<\/strong> is possible through continued, sustained membership growth through Ezer Mizion\u2019s lifesaving partnership with the IDF<\/a>, which draws in thousands of new, young<\/strong> registry members each year.<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"pinterest\"<\/a>\"linkedin\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
