Rare case of simultaneous occurrence of chronic neutrophil leukemia and T lymphoblastic lymphoma: case report and literature review.

Chronic neutrophil leukemia (CNL) is a rare and life-threatening disease. Cases of CNL combined with lymphoma are rare. Here, we report a case of CNL with T-acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (T-ALL/LBL) in a 28-year-old male.

Patients with Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis Who Need Intensive Care Can Be Successfully Rescued by Timely Using Etoposide-Based HLH Regimens.

Background: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) patients who need intensive care usually have multiple organ failure and poor prognosis. However, the clinical characteristics, therapeutic efficacy and outcome in these critically ill HLH patients have remained unclear.

Methods: We performed a retrospective study of 50 critically ill HLH patients from September 2013 to October 2022.

Fatty acid metabolism of immune cells: a new target of tumour immunotherapy.

Metabolic competition between tumour cells and immune cells for limited nutrients is an important feature of the tumour microenvironment (TME) and is closely related to the outcome of tumour immune escape. A large number of studies have proven that tumour cells need metabolic reprogramming to cope with acidification and hypoxia in the TME while increasing energy uptake to support their survival. Among them, synthesis, oxidation and uptake of fatty acids (FAs) in the TME are important manifestations of lipid metabolic adaptation.

A novel prognosis-prediction model based on coagulation indicators in secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.

Secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a life-threatening disease. In the present retrospective study, we aimed to investigate coagulation disorders and their outcome implications in patients with secondary HLH. We evaluated clinical characteristics and the relationship between coagulation indices and prognosis in HLH patients (n = 141).

Treatment Advances in EBV Related Lymphoproliferative Diseases.

Epstein Barr virus (EBV) can affect 90% of the human population. It can invade B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes and natural killer cells of the host and remain in the host for life. The long latency and reactivation of EBV can cause malignant transformation, leading to various lymphoproliferative diseases (LPDs), including EBV-related B-cell lymphoproliferative diseases (EBV-B-LPDs) (for example, Burkitt lymphoma (BL), classic Hodgkin's lymphoma (cHL), and posttransplantation and HIV-related lymphoproliferative diseases) and EBV-related T-cell lymphoproliferative diseases (EBV-T/NK-LPDs) (for example, extranodal nasal type natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL), aggressive NK cell leukaemia (ANKL), and peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS).

Advances in CD30- and PD-1-targeted therapies for relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma.

The current standard approach for relapsed or refractory (R/R) Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is salvage chemotherapy, followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). However, this therapeutic regimen is successful in only half of patients with relapsed or refractory classical HL. In addition, some patients with R/R HL are ineligible for ASCT.

Selection of new immunotherapy targets for NK/T cell lymphoma.

Extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma, nasal type, is a rare type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), and the aetiology is not fully understood. Although the clinical outcome of anthracycline-based chemotherapy was dismal because of multidrug resistance (MDR). Novel therapeutic strategies including L-asparaginase-containing regimens, radiotherapy, sequential chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) have remarkably improved outcomes.
