Background: The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been linked to a variety of B-cell lymphomas, including Burkitt lymphoma (BL), classical Hodgkin (cHL), and diffuse large (DLBCL), at rates ranging from 5 10% DLBCL cases >95% in endemic BL. Methods: Present study conducted AL-Najaf Holy City; it is cross sectional study. All patients were recruited Middle Euphrates Cancer Research Unit Laboratory...

The generation and the propagation of electrical signals in the basic unit of nervous system “neuron” has been a topic of interest to physiologists and researchers for centuries. In this effort of trying to map the functions of the brain the work of Hodgkin and Huxley has been a remarkable legacy. 60 years have passed since they have published their paper, still it continues to inspire research...

neurolymphomatosis is a rare manifestation of non-hodgkin lymphoma characterized by infiltration of peripheral nerves, nerve roots, plexus and cranial nerves by malignant lymphocytes. this report presents positron emission tomography/computed tomography (pet/ct)imaging with 2-deoxy-2-18f-fluoro-d-glucose (18f-fdg) in 3 cases of non-hodgkin lymphoma with nerve infiltration, including one newly d...

context on the strength of epidemiological data,biological studies, and clinical findings, hepatitis c virus appears to be involved in the pathogenesis of a proportion of patients with non-hodgkin lymphoma and cryoglobulinemia. objectives the aim of this paper is to review the published literature focused on the current knowledge concerning hepatitis c virus and its potential role in the produc...

The Hodgkin-Huxley model is the first successful mathematical model for explaining the initiation and propagation of an action potential in a neuron cell. In this paper we reinvestigated the Hodgkin-Huxley model through computer simulation and determined the threshold potentials by applying different types of stimulating input signals. To implement the work, a computer programme of the Hodgkin-...

We describe a rare case of Castleman disease associated de novo with Hodgkin lymphoma. The incidence of Castleman disease is rare; only a few studies have described it in de novo association with Hodgkin lymphoma. The patient described here complained of unique evolutionary axillary adenopathy. A positron-emission tomography/computed tomography scan revealed hypermetabolic activity in this area...

back ground: vincristine (vcr), is a chemotherapy drug, useful in the treatment of leukemia, lymphoma and solid tumor and it is a potent neurotoxin and sensory neuropathy drug which a common behavioral toxicity of this drug. neuropathy is common squeal of intensive chemotherapy protocols that contain vincristine and corticosteroids. materials and methods: this study was a retrospective and desc...

we present a woman referred with underlying non-hodgkin's lymphoma (nhl) masquerading clinically with guillain-barré syndrome (gbs) like syndrome. at first evaluation, chest ct-scan along with brain and whole spine mri were normal. electrodiagnostic studies were in favor of acute generalized polyradiculoneuropathy. laboratory evaluation revealed hypoglycorrhachia. she treated with plasmapheresi...
