Patients with HIV infection are at a significantly increased risk of developing certain types of NHL compared to the general population.

As a result, lymphoma remains a common initial AIDS-defining illne...

The sensitivity of Northern Hemisphere sea ice cover to global temperature change is examined in a group of climate models and in the satellite-era observations. The models are found to have well-defined, distinguishable sensitivities in climate change experiments. The satellite-era observations show a larger sensitivity— a larger decline per degree of warming—than any of the models. To evaluat...
