Prognostic2
- Our primary endpoint was the overall survival (OS) and we used the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis to determine the optimal prognostic cut-off value for LLR (lactate dehydrogenase-to-lymphocyte ratio), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (dNLR).

Lymphatic system4
- In lymphoma, the cells in the lymphatic system grow abnormally, dividing too rapidly and growing without any order or control (Longe 2005). (newworldencyclopedia.org)
- Lymphoma represents a breakdown in the intricate coordination of the lymphatic system. (newworldencyclopedia.org)
- The term "lymphoma" refers to cancer of the body's lymphatic system, a network of tissues and organs that produce white blood cells to fight off infections and other diseases. (moffitt.org)
- White blood cells or lymphocytes are the soldiers of our immune system that patrol the body via the lymphatic system. (news-medical.net)
Clinical5
- The National Cancer Institute's Working Formulation, originally proposed in 1982, classified and grouped lymphomas by morphology and clinical behavior (ie, low, intermediate, or high grade) with 10 subgroups labeled A to J. (medscape.com)
- They are classified as Hodgkins and Non-Hodgkins lymphomas on the basis of the cell of origin and clinical characteristics. (news-medical.net)
- 2 , 3 These lymphomas have a distinct clinical behavior and a bad prognosis. (haematologica.org)
- 13 Despite the similarities of their malignant cells, an important difference between the two lymphomas lies in their clinical presentation and prognosis. (haematologica.org)
- Initial management consisted of en una paciente con topical corticosteroids and oral antihistamines with little clinical response. (bvsalud.org)

- There are many types of lymphoma. (newworldencyclopedia.org)
Immune system5
- B cells are lymphocytes (a class of white blood cells ) that play a large role in the adaptive immune system by making antibodies to identify and neutralize invading pathogens like bacteria and viruses . (newworldencyclopedia.org)
- Lymphocyte-like natural killer (NK) cells also are involved in the immune system , albeit part of the innate immune system . (newworldencyclopedia.org)
- Lymphocytes play an essential role in the immune system and can spike during infections. (medicalnewstoday.com)
- Thyroid lymphoma starts in the immune system cells called lymphocytes. (fortherecordmag.com)
- Hodgkins lymphoma is a cancer that primarily affects the lymphatic tissues, and weakens the immune system of the body, making it more prone to infections. (medindia.net)
Proliferation1
- It is unclear whether intraclonal V gene diversification by somatic hypermutation, which is strictly dependent on the enzyme activation induced cytidine deaminase (AID), is restricted to the early phase of lymphoma clone expansion and later silenced, or whether it remains active throughout malignant proliferation. (bmj.com)
Cells15
- There are two main types of lymphocytes: B cell lymphocytes (B cells) and T cell lymphocytes (T cells). (medicalnewstoday.com)
- They're also called CD4 T lymphocytes or "helper T cells. (medlineplus.gov)
- These cells are also known as lymphocytes . (healthline.com)
- When the cells start to grow irregularly on the skin, it's called a skin lymphoma. (healthline.com)
- green indicates genes that are overexpressed in normal cells compared to lymphoma cells and red indicates genes that are overexpressed in lymphoma cells compared to normal cells. (newworldencyclopedia.org)
- Of the white blood cells produced, two types are known as lymphocytes: B cells and T cells. (moffitt.org)
- It develops when T-cells (also called T-lymphocytes) become abnormal. (macmillan.org.uk)
- The abnormal T-cells (lymphoma cells) usually build up in lymph nodes , but they can affect other parts of the body. (macmillan.org.uk)
- This is where the lymphoma cells have a protein called anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). (macmillan.org.uk)
- This is where the lymphoma cells do not have the ALK protein. (macmillan.org.uk)
- It is caused by lymphoma cells building up in the lymph nodes , which makes them bigger. (macmillan.org.uk)
- These white blood cells include B lymphocytes or B cells and T lymphocytes or T cells. (medicalnewstoday.com)
- It begins in B cells and causes an increase in abnormal lymphocytes. (medicalnewstoday.com)
- The tumor cells of both lymphomas share several characteristics, while the cellular composition of their microenvironment is clearly different. (haematologica.org)
- Gene expression profiling of lymphomas clearly illustrated that apart from the characteristics of the tumor cells, the microenvironment of the tumor also defines the profile of the lymphoma, and, more importantly, plays a role in predicting the prognosis. (haematologica.org)
