NK-large granular lymphocytic leukemia (NK-LGLL) is a rare chronic lymphoproliferative disorder and displays heterogeneity that remains insufficiently defined. CD56 plays a pivotal role in NK-cell maturation linked to cytotoxicity. However, whether CD56 might be associated with distinctive characteristics in NK-LGLL has not been determined.

Background: Non-secretory multiple myeloma (NSMM) is defined as clonal bone marrow plasma cells ≥10% or biopsy proven plasmacytoma, evidence of end-organ damage due to underlying plasma cell dyscrasia, namely hypercalcemia, renal insufficiency, anaemia, bone lesions and lack of serum and urinary monoclonal protein on electrophoresis and immunofixation. They represent 3-5% of multiple myeloma (MM). With the advent of serum free light chain (s FLC) measurement, most of NSMMs have been classified as Light chain Multiple myeloma (LCMM).

Inconsistent measurement and reporting are a barrier to specific targets, resource allocation, and interventions. In this Article we report current estimates of overweight and obesity across childhood and adolescence, progress over time, and forecasts to inform specific actions.

However, there have been no reports of a case presenting with polycythemia secondary to bilateral nephromegaly caused by renal infiltration of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL).
