Philadelphia chromosome-negative non-Hodgkin's lymphoma occurring in Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia: A case report and literature review.

The current study reports the case of a patient with Philadelphia chromosome-negative (Ph) non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and chronic phase (CP) Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) that also possessed characteristic enlarged lymph nodes. A lymph node biopsy resulted in the diagnosis of CP-CML, in addition to T-lymphoblastic cell NHL with negative break point cluster/Abelson tyrosine kinase fusion genes in the lymph node of the patient, which was diagnosed as Ph NHL. A review of the literature was performed in the present study to investigate the genetic differences between Ph NHL and Ph NHL in patients with CML.

Distinguishing Foeniculum vulgare fruit from two adulterants by combination of microscopy and GC-MS analysis.

For the purpose of accurate differentiation of the three herbal medicines, extensive anatomical examination and chemical profiling were conducted.
