Diseases can be caused by consuming foods that do not have a balanced nutritional value, choosing the wrong diet, or food menu. Diet is also risk factor for cancer, such as leukemia. In outpatient pediatric polyclinic of Dr. Soetomo Hospital Surabaya, leukemia one ten most common diseases. This study aims to analyze relationship between family culture menu selection and incidence in children at...

INTRODUCTION Acute lymphocytic leukemia is a type of cancer most common in children and it is characterized by excessive and disordered immature leukocytes in the bone marrow. AIM Identify most frequent oral manifestations in children with acute lymphocytic leukemia under chemotherapy treatment. METHODOLOGY The research was conducted on the electronic database PubMed/Medline, Science Direct...

Leukemia is a cancer of blood-producing cells, including the bone marrow. Abnormal white blood cells travel through vessels and multiply rapidly. Healthy in body become minority, imbalance increases chances infection body. or most common children ages 2 - 14. Most leukemia treated. Acute lymphocytic (ALL) type It progresses rapidly when immature are formed instead mature ones. Treatments for ac...

The importance of the tumor microenvironment in chronic lymphocytic leukemia is widely accepted. Nevertheless, the understanding of the complex interplay between the various types of bystander cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells is incomplete. Numerous studies have indicated that bystander cells provide chronic lymphocytic leukemia-supportive functions, but it has also become clear tha...

Microsatellites are important highly polymorphic genetic markers dispersed in the human genome. Using a panel of 22 (CA)n repeat microsatellite markers mapped to recurrent breakpoint cluster regions specifically involved in leukemia, we investigated 114 adult leukemias (25 acute lymphocytic leukemia [ALL], 32 acute myeloid leukemia [AML], 36 chronic lymphocytic leukemia [CLL], and 21 chronic my...

By DANE R. BOGGS T HE NATURE of the defect in host defense mechanisms resulting in the increased incidence of bacterial infection in the leukemias is ill defined. Studies of antibody formation indicate that the patient with an acute leukemia or with chronic myelocytic leukemia has normal or near normal response to antigenic stimulation, whereas the patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia freq...

A case report describing Capnocytophaga ochracea (Bacteroides ochraceus) septicemia in a 21-year-old male patient receiving chemotherapy for acute lymphocytic leukemia is presented. The unusual features of this organism are discussed together with a review of the literature.

Fibromodulin is an extracellular matrix protein normally produced by collagen-rich tissues; the fibromodulin gene has been found to be the most overexpressed gene in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia. In this study, fibromodulin was expressed at the gene level (reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction [RT-PCR]) in all patients with B-CLL (n = 75) and in most (5 of 7) patients with mant...
