Acute leukemia is a prevalent cancer worldwide and is classified into two distinct forms. Currently, various therapies have been developed for this disease; however, the issues of recurrence, resistance to treatment, and adverse effects require the exploration of novel treatments. Polyphenols, classified into four categories, are secondary metabolites originating from plants that demonstrate diverse metabolic features such as anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities.

Article Synopsis
- Buerger's disease (BD) is a serious condition that requires early diagnosis for effective treatment, but there’s no universally accepted method for diagnosing it due to varied criteria used by different vascular centers.
- A recent Delphi Consensus Study highlighted the lack of consensus on BD diagnostic criteria, particularly beyond the requirement of a history of smoking, making it hard to compare patient outcomes globally.
- The VAS-European Independent Foundation has proposed that a definitive BD diagnosis should include a history of smoking, typical angiographic and histopathological features, and suggests using a combination of major and minor criteria for suspected diagnoses, with validation studies currently in progress.

Various critical covariates (age, gender/sex, race/ethnicity, culture/acculturation, and disability status) also interact.
