It is now understood that ALL and lymphoblastic lymphoma are the same disease entities at the morphologic and immunophenotypic levels and classified as either B- and T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (B-ALL and T-ALL). In the case of B-ALL, numerous reports have demonstrated that recurring genetic abnormalities are associated with sufficiently unique clinical, immunophenotypic, and/or prognostic features so that they can be considered as distinct entities. The most common rearrangements observed in B-ALL are the t(12;21) (p13;q22) rearrangement resulting in expression of the ETV6-RUNX1 fusion (TEL-AML1); the t(1;19) (q23;p13) translocation that results in expression of the TCF3 (E2A) fusion partner, (also known as TCF3) TFPT-PBX1 fusion (E2A-PBX); the t(9;22) (q34;q11.2) \"Philadelphia\" chromosome resulting in expression of the BCR-ABL1 fusion; and rearrangements of MLL (also known as KMT2A) at 11q23 to a diverse array of fusion partners. If none of these specific genetic abnormalities are found, the designation of \"B lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma, not otherwise specified,\" is appropriate." }, "riskFactors": [ { "text": "obesity", "score": 13.140652656555176, "articlesIDs": [ "32706183" ] }, { "text": "underweight (or 2.11, 95% ci 1.56-2.85) and obesity", "score": 13.092214584350586, "articlesIDs": [ "32706183" ] }, { "text": "high viral burden with ebv", "score": 12.851086616516113, "articlesIDs": [ "12746363" ] }, { "text": "pre-treatment obesity", "score": 12.689543724060059, "articlesIDs": [ "32706183" ] }, { "text": "patients carrying at least two variant alleles (high-producer haplotypes)", "score": 12.315366744995117, "articlesIDs": [ "16293872" ] }, { "text": "patients with t-cell leukemia, tel-aml1(+)", "score": 11.463205337524414, "articlesIDs": [ "18815194" ] }, { "text": "uv exposure at diagnosis", "score": 10.902215003967285, "articlesIDs": [ "28770363" ] }, { "text": "higher hemoglobin level (\u003e/=80 g/l)", "score": 10.598085403442383, "articlesIDs": [ "18815194" ] }, { "text": "tel-aml1(+), and bcr-abl(+) precursor b-cell leukemia", "score": 10.518112182617188, "articlesIDs": [ "18815194" ] }, { "text": "tnf -308 (g--\u003ea) and lt-a +252 (a--\u003eg) polymorphisms", "score": 10.14865493774414, "articlesIDs": [ "16293872" ] }, { "text": "uv \u003e 105.5 j/cm", "score": 10.036555290222168, "articlesIDs": [ "28770363" ] }, { "text": "infections, particularly in infancy", "score": 9.03476333618164, "articlesIDs": [ "21903265" ] }, { "text": "human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) infection", "score": 9.032146453857422, "articlesIDs": [ "12746363" ] }, { "text": "children with human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) infection", "score": 8.920430183410645, "articlesIDs": [ "12746363" ] }, { "text": "presenting with a higher hemoglobin level (\u003e/=80 g/l)", "score": 8.91404914855957, "articlesIDs": [ "18815194" ] }, { "text": "heat shock instigated by infections, particularly in infancy", "score": 8.051386833190918, "articlesIDs": [ "21903265" ] } ] }
