Absolute monocyte count as a prognostic parameter in diffuse large B cell lymphoma
ABSTRACT Background Prognosis of patients with Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) is highly variable, and despite the use of modern immunochemotherapy regimens, almost 50% of patients will eventually relapse. Standard risk models, like the International Prognostic Index or the Revised Internatio...
