Objective: To analyze the classification, stage and prognosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).
Methods: Two hundred eighty two patients with NHL were retrospectively reviewed.
Results: The complete remission (CR) rate and 5-year survival rate of B-cell NHL were higher than those of T-cell NHL(P < 0.05). There were significant differences in CR rate and 5-year survival rate among the low-grade, the intermediate-grade and the high-grade NHL(P < 0.05). The CR rate and 5-year survival rate of patients who were treated by the scheme of doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine and prednisone (CHOP) were higher than those treated by the scheme of cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone and etoposide (COP + VP16) (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: Rational classification and staging play an important role in the prognosis of NHL. CHOP-based scheme may be regarded as the first choice and the standard scheme of treatment.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) exhibits a poor 5-year survival rate. TNFRSF4 is gaining attention in tumor therapy. The objective of this study was to forecast the expression of TNFRSF4 in HNSCC tissue using analysis of pathological images and investigate its possible molecular mechanisms.

Background: The incidence of prostate cancer is increasing in Asian countries. Although moderately hypofractionated radiotherapy is not inferior to conventional fractionated radiation according to the updated guidelines, data regarding its efficacy and safety in Taiwan are currently lacking. The aim of this study was to investigate the outcomes of prostate cancer patients treated with hypofractionated image-guided radiotherapy at a single institution in Taiwan.

Background: To identify the prognosis of Japanese patients with collecting duct carcinoma (CDC).
Methods: We used a hospital-based cancer registry data in Japan to extract CDC cases that were diagnosed in 2013, histologically confirmed, and determined the first course of treatment. We further investigated treatment modalities and estimated overall survival (OS) by the Kaplan-Meier method.

Objective: As aneurysmal disease is progressive, proximal disease progression and para-anastomotic aneurysms are complications experienced after open infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (AAA). As such, fenestrated or branched endovascular repair (F/BEVAR) may be indicated in these patients. Data describing fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair after prior open repair are limited to institutional databases.

Background: Trace element and metal exposure is closely related to the occurrence of chronic diseases, particularly affecting blood pressure and blood glucose. Current studies suggest that heavy metal exposure is a risk factor for hypertension and diabetes. Aluminum can enter the human body through daily life and occupational exposure from food, environment, drugs, and other sources, affecting the cardiovascular, endocrine, and other systems.
