[Mononuclear peripheral blood cells in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma synthesizing DNA in vitro].

In 82 patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHC) the DNA synthesis by mononuclear cells from the peripheral blood was assessed by means of the index of mitoses (IM) or by pulse labelling of cells with 3H-TdR. In chronic lymphatic leukaemia (47 cases), hairy-cell leukemia (1 case), plasma-cell leukaemia (1 case) no synthesis of DNA was found in mononuclear cells. On the other hand, it was raised in most cases of lymphoplasmocytoma, centrocytoma, centroblasto-centrocytoma, centroblastoma and in lymphoblastic leukaemia or lymphoma.

[Treatment of acute leukemias in adults. IV. Treatment results on 375 patients at 9 hematology centers].

On the basis of standardized protocols of the therapeutic results of acute non-lymphoblastic leukaemias in adults sent to the Institute of Haematology in Warsaw from 8 haematological centres in Poland it was demonstrated that complete remission occurred in 34.4% of patients (129 out of 375 cases). The mean survival time of the patients treated intensively according to programmes I, II, III and IV 8.6 months, those of patients with complete remission - 13.5 months, patients without complete remission - 3.7 months. The most frequent cause of death (82.5%) were infections and/or haemarrhagic diathesis.
