TLDR
The revision clarifies the diagnosis and management of lesions at the very early stages of lymphomagenesis, refines the diagnostic criteria for some entities, details the expanding genetic/molecular landscape of numerous lymphoid neoplasms and their clinical correlates, and refers to investigations leading to more targeted therapeutic strategies.

Cell-free DNA as a biomarker in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: A systematic review.

TL;DR: Although more efforts and standardization of techniques are needed, studying cfDNA in liquid biopsy may help improve the outcome of DLBCL patients and IgH gene rearrangements and somatic mutations seem to be the most promising biomarkers to date.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of non-Helicobacter pylori helicobacter infections in Helicobacter pylori-negative gastric MALT lymphoma pathogenesis and efficacy of eradication therapy

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors analyzed the relationship between non-Helicobacter pylori helicobacter infection status and eradication therapy outcome, and they recommended the use of eradication as a first-line treatment for gastric MALT lymphoma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methodology of clinical trials evaluating the incorporation of new drugs in the first-line treatment of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL): a critical review.

TL;DR: The standard of care for DLBCL is still R-CHOP, and phase I/II trials failed to predict the results of subsequent phase III trials evaluating non-chemotherapeutic agents added to R- CHOP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular alterations in acute myeloid leukemia and their clinical and therapeutical implications.

TL;DR: The identification of recurrent cytogenetic anomalies associated with different patterns of acute myeloid leukaemia clinical presentation has led to the incorporation of genetic markers in clinical decision-making and into the World Health Organisation's recent molecular classification and stratification and the European Leukaemia Net.

WHO Classification of Tumours of Haematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues

TL;DR: Thank you very much for reading who classification of tumours of haematopoietic and lymphoid tissues, and maybe you have knowledge that, people have look hundreds of times for their chosen readings like this, but end up in malicious downloads.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 2008 WHO classification of lymphoid neoplasms and beyond: evolving concepts and practical applications.

TL;DR: The criteria and significance of early or precursor lesions and the identification of certain lymphoid neoplasms largely associated with particular age groups, such as children and the elderly are addressed, and the issue of borderline categories having overlapping features with large B-cell lymphomas is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Whole-genome sequencing identifies recurrent mutations in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia

TL;DR: The patterns of somatic mutation, supported by functional and clinical analyses, strongly indicate that the recurrent NOTCH1, MYD88 and XPO1 mutations are oncogenic changes that contribute to the clinical evolution of the disease.

MYD88 L265P Somatic Mutation in Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia

TL;DR: MYD88 L265P is a commonly recurring mutation in patients with Waldenström's macroglobulinemia that can be useful in differentiating WaldenStröm’s macrogalobulinesia and non-IgM LPL from B-cell disorders that have some of the same features.
