CXCL13 plus interleukin 10 is highly specific for the diagnosis of CNS lymphoma

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
It is demonstrated for the first time that elevated CXCL13 concentration in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is prognostic and that CXC chemokine ligand and IL-10 mediate chemotaxis of lymphoma cells isolated from CNS lymphoma lesions.

Primary Vitreoretinal Lymphoma in HIV Infection

TL;DR: Ophthalmologists should consider the diagnosis of PVRL in HIV-positive individuals who present with intermediate or posterior uveitis, and the prognosis is poor, but has improved significantly compared to the pre-ART era.

Beyond LNB: Real life data on occurrence and extent of CSF CXCL13 in neuroinflammatory diseases.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that CXCL13 elevation occurs at variable extent in the majority of neuroinflammatory diseases, which is not exclusive for LNB.

Cerebrospinal fluid interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-10:IL-6 ratio as biomarkers for small B-cell lymphoproliferations with leptomeningeal dissemination.

TL;DR: It is reported for the first time that low levels of interleukin (IL)-10 do not exclude lymphomatous meningitis in B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders (CLPD), and the usefulness of adding the IL-10:IL-6 ratio in order to potentially reveal more aggressive lymphomas.

Circulating Tumor DNA Profiling for Detection, Risk Stratification, and Classification of Brain Lymphomas

TL;DR: In this article , the authors explored the value of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) for early outcome prediction, measurable residual disease monitoring, and surgery-free CNSL identification by applying ultrasensitive targeted next-generation sequencing to a total of 306 tumor, plasma, and CSF specimens from 136 patients with brain cancers, including 92 patients with CNSL.

Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) plots: a fundamental evaluation tool in clinical medicine.

TL;DR: Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) plots provide a pure index of accuracy by demonstrating the limits of a test's ability to discriminate between alternative states of health over the complete spectrum of operating conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Basic principles of ROC analysis

TL;DR: ROC analysis is shown to be related in a direct and natural way to cost/benefit analysis of diagnostic decision making and the concepts of "average diagnostic cost" and "average net benefit" are developed and used to identify the optimal compromise among various kinds of diagnostic error.

Revised response criteria for malignant lymphoma

TL;DR: New guidelines incorporating PET, IHC, and flow cytometry for definitions of response in non-Hodgkin's and Hodgkin's lymphoma are presented and it is hoped that they will be adopted widely by study groups, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, and regulatory agencies to facilitate the development of new and more effective therapies to improve the outcome of patients with lymphoma.

A Polycistronic MicroRNA Cluster, miR-17-92, Is Overexpressed in Human Lung Cancers and Enhances Cell Proliferation

TL;DR: Findings clearly suggest that marked overexpression of the miR-17-92 cluster with occasional gene amplification may play a role in the development of lung cancers, especially in their most aggressive form, small-cell lung cancer, and that the C13orf25 gene may well be serving as a vehicle in this regard.

Report of an International Workshop to Standardize Baseline Evaluation and Response Criteria for Primary CNS Lymphoma

TL;DR: An international group of experts meeting to review current standards of reporting and to formulate a consensus opinion regarding minimum baseline evaluation and common standards for assessing response to therapy hope that these guidelines will improve communication among investigators and comparability among clinical trials in a way that will allow to develop better therapies for patients.
