Severe hyperlipidaemia with asparaginase therapy is rare. We report six cases, four of which developed significant problems with severe hyperlipidaemia during induction therapy for ALL and lymphoblastic lymphoma. The median triglyceride level was 22.3 mmol/L and the median cholesterol level was 12.3
OBJECTIVE
To determine the safety and efficacy of oral bexarotene (Targretin capsules; Ligand Pharmaceuticals Incorporated, San Diego, Calif).
METHODS
The effects of 2 randomized doses of 6.5 mg/m(2) per day (with crossover for progression) vs 650 mg/m(2) per day (later modified to 300 mg/m(2) per
Lipid traits have been inconsistently linked to risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). We examined the association of genetically predicted lipid traits with risk of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), follicular (FL) and marginal zone (MZL) lymphoma To improve the understanding of lymphoma associated hemophagocytic syndrome (LAHS) and find an effective treatment for this fatal disease, 57 patients with LAHS were retrospectively reviewed. The most common histopathological type was extranodal natural killer (NK)/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKL)
In the present article we describe a patient with AIDS and chylous ascites secondary to B-cell non Hodgkin's lymphoma. A 43 years old homosexual HIV-positive man. Complained of abdominal fullness, diarrhea and a rapidly increase in abdominal girth of 1 week duration. A diagnostic paracentesis was
OBJECTIVE
Composition of dietary fatty acid intake, which influences cytokine production, may contribute to the development of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Serum lipid levels may serve as biomarkers of inflammation associated with NHL risk.
METHODS
We conducted a case-control analysis (275 cases
This study aims to retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics, treatments, and prognosis of aggressive peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) patients with a lymphoma-associated hemophagocytosis syndrome (LAHS). We compared the clinical features and the overall survival (OS) rates of 159 PTCL
BACKGROUND
Chylothorax is defined as chyle entering the pleural space. The most common causes of chylothorax are lymphoma followed by bronchogenic carcinoma and trauma.
METHODS
We report a case of chylothorax in a patient with Hodgkin's lymphoma. A 28-year old man was admitted to the hospital with
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is a clonal proliferative disease of B or T cell progenitors originating from lymph nodes or extranodal lymphatic tissue. There are several pulmonary complications associated with NHL. We aimed to discuss two pulmonary complications with high morbidity and mortality
Metreleptin, a recombinant methionyl -human -leptin, was approved to treat patients with generalized lipodystrophy (GL) in February 2014. However, leptin therapy has been associated with the development of lymphoma. We present a unique case of a patient with prior history of T cell BACKGROUND
Bexarotene (Targretin oral capsules), the first RXR-selective retinoid "rexinoid" approved for all stages of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), had a response rate (RR) of 45% at the optimal dose of 300 mg/m(2) per day in 2 multicenter trials. With hypertriglyceridemia reported at 79%,
The treatment of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL), which includes mycosis fungoides and Sezary syndrome, has been in a state of continual change over recent decades, as new therapies are constantly emerging in the search for more effective treatments for the disease. However, prognosis and survival
Bexarotene is an oral retinoid therapy that is effective for the treatment of early and advanced-stage cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) in patients who have failed on other therapies. However, bexarotene treatment is associated with unavoidable side-effects, in particular hypertriglyceridaemia and
Hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) may be provoked by infections, malignancies and autoimmune diseases. We report on a 56-year-old woman with long-lasting systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who presented with malar rash, inflammatory livedo reticularis, fever, weight loss, pancytopenia and mild
Male C57BL/65 mice received a basal diet supplemented with 4% soya-bean oil, linseed oil or fish oil, in which the major polyunsaturated fatty acids were linoleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid and long chain omega-3 fatty acids, respectively. Groups of animals were injected into the right flank with
