Abstract
Primary gastric lymphoma (PGL) is a rare clinical entity accounting for the majority of extra-nodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (EN-NHL). The most common histological subtype is the primary gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PG-DLBCL) with a media age of 50-60 years old, mostly in male. Pathogenesis is often related to some bacterial infection such as Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. However, due to various available staging system, there is still no consensus on the staging of PG-DLBCL. The international prognostic index (IPI) is the most valuable used for the stratification of almost all subtype of NHL and as well as for PG-DLBCL. As for treatment strategies, surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy and antibiotic therapy in various combinations have been applied in clinical treatment. There are a few well-known prognostic factors and some of them may constitute prognostic models. Due to the increasing incidence of this neoplasm, it is necessary for clinicians to make deep insight of the diagnosis, staging, treatment and prognostic factors of PG-DLBCL.

Abstract
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and interleukin-32 (IL-32) expression has been examined in various carcinomas and inflammations, and has been suggested to be significant in tumor progression and prognosis. The present study was conducted to investigate the expression of COX-2 and IL-32 in primary gastric B-cell lymphoma in order to define their clinical significance and their association with Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection. COX-2 and IL-32 protein expression was detected in 31 primary gastric B-cell lymphoma patients and 19 chronic gastritis patients with immunohistochemistry. COX-2 and IL-32 expression was significantly higher in primary gastric lymphoma (PGL) tissues compared with gastritis tissues (51.6 vs. 21.1% for COX-2, P=0.032; and 58.1 vs. 26.3% for IL-32, P=0.029) and was significantly higher in Hp+ lymphoma tissues compared with Hp- lymphoma tissues (66.7 vs. 20% for COX-2, P=0.015; and 71.4 vs. 30% for IL-32, P=0.029). In the PGL tissues, the expression level of COX-2 was positively correlated with the expression level of IL-32, and the two were each positively correlated with Hp infection (P=0.004 for COX-2 and IL-32; P=0.01 for COX-2 and Hp infection; and P=0.003 for IL-32 and Hp infection). COX-2 expression was found to be significantly associated (P<0.05) with an aggressive tumor type, higher expression of Ki-67, frequent lymph node metastasis and advanced stage. IL-32 expression was found to be significantly correlated (P<0.05) with frequent lymph node metastasis and an advanced stage. The survival time was longer in the COX-2- and IL-32- lymphoma patients compared with the COX-2+ and IL-32+ lymphoma patients, but these differences were not statistically significant. These results suggested that Hp infection and the expression of COX-2 and IL-32 were closely linked with each other, and that the overexpression of COX-2 and IL-32 was correlated with tumor progression in primary gastric B-cell lymphoma, thus indicating potential novel therapeutic target.

Abstract
We conducted a population-based study of peripheral lymphomas (PL) that had been diagnosed between 1997 and 2003 in the province of Modena, Italy, with the aim of providing updated incidence, clinical and survival data for these cancers. We evaluated the incidence patterns and time trends of 1582 cases of PL that had been reclassified according to the WHO classification of hematological malignancies. Data regarding clinical characteristics, treatment and outcome were also collected for each case. The World Age-Standardized Rate (ASR) was calculated as 13.4, 2.2 and 3.4 per 100,000 people for B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), T-cell NHL and Hodgkin's Lymphoma (HL), respectively, with an increase of 1.62% per year during the study period. The lymphoma subtype showing the highest incidence was found to be diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with an ASR of 4.8. Compared with reports from other western countries, our series is characterized by a higher incidence of HL and indolent B-NHL in general, and of CLL/SLL (ASR = 3.3) and marginal zone NHL (ASR = 1.5), in particular, and also by a lower incidence of FL (ASR = 2). After a median follow-up of 54 months, the 5-year relative survival for the whole series was found to be 70% with a statistically significant improvement for cases diagnosed during 2002-2003 (from 66 to 74%; p = 0.03). Survival improvement within the study period was also evident for patients with DLBCL, HL and T-NHL. Our study provides a comprehensive description of both the epidemiological and clinical features of PL cases in Modena and our data also reflect the major advances in the curability of some histological subtypes of this disease. The usefulness of a population-based approach to better characterizing different lymphoma subtypes is also demonstrated.

Abstract
PURPOSE Standard therapy for patients with stage I-II indolent lymphoma has been involved-field radiation therapy (IF-XRT), which achieves 10-year disease-free survival in 40% to 50% of patients, with many of these patients cured. We investigated the potential for combined-modality therapy to increase the disease-free survival for such patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 102 eligible patients with stage I-II low grade lymphoma (International Working Formulation criteria) were enrolled from 1984 to 1992. Treatment comprised 10 cycles of risk-adapted chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone, bleomycin [COP-Bleo], and with doxorubicin added for some [CHOP-Bleo]) and 30 to 40 Gy IF-XRT. RESULTS The patients' median age was 56 years (range, 28 to 77), with follicular histology in 83%, bulky disease (>/= 5 cm) in 24%, and stage II in 52%. There were no treatment-related deaths and 99% of patients attained complete remission. With a median follow-up of 10 years, the 10-year time to treatment failure and overall survival were 76% and 82%, respectively. For patients with follicular lymphoma, these figures were 72% and 80%, respectively. The only factor associated with treatment failure, for follicular lymphoma patients, was stage-modified International Prognostic Factors Index score (P =.02). None of 17 patients with diffuse small lymphocytic or mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue histology have relapsed. Elevated serum beta2-microglobulin was associated with shorter survival (P <.0001). The 10-year survival after relapse was 46%. There have been two cases of myelodysplasia and 12 other new malignancies, including four arising within radiation fields. CONCLUSION With prolonged follow-up, combined-modality therapy with risk-adapted COP-/CHOP-Bleo and IF radiation has attained higher rates of disease control and survival than previously reported with IF-XRT alone. This apparent improvement is being further explored in an ongoing randomized trial.

Abstract
PURPOSE Investigators disagree on whether follicular large cell lymphoma (FLCL) behaves like other follicular lymphomas, with no plateau in the survival curve, or as a more aggressive but potentially curable lymphoma. We reported in 1984 results for 62 FLCL patients treated at our institution; the current report updates those results. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty-two patients referred from 1973-1981, including fifteen (24%) patients with Ann Arbor stage I-II and forty-seven (76%) with stage III-IV FLCL. Seven patients received radiation (XRT) alone, forty patients XRT and chemotherapy, and fifteen patients received chemotherapy alone. RESULTS The median follow-up was 14.7 years. The median survival was 5.1 years, with 21% alive at 15 years. The failure-free survival (FFS) at 10 years was 31%. Univariate analysis revealed that age, Ann Arbor stage, and the International Index correlated with survival. Performance status, number of platelets, and LDH correlated with failure-free survival. CONCLUSIONS FLCL responds to doxorubicin-based regimens similarly to diffuse large cell lymphoma. Patients with FLCL have the potential for prolonged failure-free survival. Variables that predict the survival in aggressive lymphomas apply as well in this type of lymphoma.

Abstract
In order to obtain valid data on the pattern, frequency and prognostic significance of autoimmune derangements in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) we studied 626 consecutive adult NHL patients participating in a population-based lymphoma registry. A total of 86 patients, corresponding to 13.7%, showed autoimmune phenomena (AP). Of these, 7.8% exhibited clinical autoimmune phenomena (CAP), and 5.9% showed immunohaematological phenomena (IHP). The distribution of histological subgroups of NHL in the AP and non-AP patients was similar. The same holds true for the CAP and IHP patients. A slight, non-significant overrepresentation of NHL, T-cell phenotype was found in patients with AP. CAP preceded the diagnosis of NHL in most patients, whereas IHP was associated with active lymphoma disease. AP as a whole did not predict for time to complete response, time to relapse or for survival. The finding that IHP patients relapsed earlier than CAP patients was not reflected in a significant difference in survival.
