This review examines the association between disorders of immunity, including immune deficiency, atopy, and autoimmune disease, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Immune deficiency is one of the strongest known risk factors for NHL. Risk is increased whether the immune deficiency is congenital, iatrogenic, or acquired. Risk of NHL increases with degree of immune deficiency, and there is no evidenc...
متن کاملNon-Hodgkin lymphoma and pesticide exposure in Turkey.

متن کاملHodgkin Lymphoma and Anaplastic Variants of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma
Background and Objectives: Classic Hodgkin lymphoma (CHL), anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) and some cases of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) have overlapping morphologic features.

متن کاملBenzene exposure and risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Exposure to benzene, an important industrial chemical and component of gasoline, is a widely recognized cause of leukemia, but its association with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is less clear. To clarify this issue, we undertook a systematic review of all case-control and cohort studies that identified probable occupational exposures to benzene and NHL morbidity or mortality. We identified 43 case...
متن کاملEnvironmental Risk Factors for Acute Leukemia and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in Children
