[Classification of Hodgkin lymphoma and related entities : News and open questions].

Two new classifications were recently released: the 5th edition of the WHO classification of hematolymphoid tumors and the International Consensus Classification (ICC) drafted by the Clinical Advisory Committee. In the preparation of both classifications, the previously existing lymphoma categories were reevaluated according to recently obtained data on clinical, morphological, and molecular findings. In this review we summarize the current placements of classic and nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma and their relevant differential diagnoses.

Proposal for a novel classification of benign parotid tumors based on localization.

OBJECTIVE: Postoperative facial nerve paralysis is the most problematic complication after surgical treatment of parotid tumors. Localization of tumors is highly relevant for the surgical approach, but existing classification systems do not focus on the association between localization and surgical technique. Therefore, we created a new localization-based classification system for benign parotid tumors and investigated the characteristics of tumors in each localization and the frequency of postoperative facial nerve paralysis by retrospectively applying the classification to previous cases. M…

Sialendoscopy-Based Analysis of Submandibular Duct Papillae with a Proposal for Classification.

Identifying a submandibular (Wharton's) duct punctum often hinders sialendoscopy; however, there is a paucity of evidence on whether the appearance of Wharton's duct papilla impacts the sialendoscopic procedure. A classification of Wharton's duct papillae based on the macroscopic appearance, size of dilatation probes, and sialendoscopic approach was proposed herein. The classification describing four main types of papillae, A, B, C, and D, was prospectively evaluated on 351 Wharton's duct papillae in 315 patients. For each papillae type, the demographic/clinical data, intraoperative complicati…

Primary cutaneous lymphoma: the 2018 update of the WHO-EORTC classification.

Primary cutaneous lymphomas are a heterogeneous group of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) and cutaneous B-cell lymphomas (CBCL) that present in the skin with no evidence of extracutaneous disease at the time of diagnosis. In the last decade the 2005 WHO-EORTC consensus classification has served as a golden standard for the diagnosis and classification of these conditions. Recently, an updated version of the WHO-EORTC was published. This classification contains several new entities, including primary cutaneous acral CD8+ T-cell lymphoma and EBV-positive mucocutaneous ulcer, while other conditi…

A novel classification and grading scale of palatine tonsil anatomy in children.

PURPOSE: The influence of tonsil anatomical differences on post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage and pain has not been studied yet. This study aimed to establish a classification and grading scale of palatine tonsil anatomy, not size, for personalized post-tonsillectomy care. METHODS: Between August 2020 and August 2021, 337 children who underwent extracapsular tonsillectomy were recruited. The images of tonsil anatomy during the surgery were recorded and then classified and graded. Postoperative hemorrhage was recorded, and the degree of pain was measured using a visual analog scale (VAS). The prima…

The spike-and-slab elastic net as a classification tool in Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia and has received considerable research attention, including using neuroimaging bio … hin a spike-and-slab elastic net framework. We demonstrate the ability of this framework to improve classification performance by using cortical thickness and tau-PET images from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) to classify subjects as cognitively normal or having dementia, and by using a simulation study to examine model performance using …

Evaluation of the Existing Electrophysiological Severity Classifications in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

Electrophysiological examination is important for the diagnosis and evaluation of nerve function in carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Electrophysiological severity classifications of CTS using a nerve conduction study (NCS) have been reported, and there are many reports on the relationship between severity classifications and clinical symptoms. The existing electrophysiological severity classifications have several problems, such as cases that do not fit into a classification and unclear reasons for the boundary value. The purpose of this study was to clarify the relationship between sensory nerve…

EEG signal classification of tinnitus based on SVM and sample entropy.

The prevalence of tinnitus is high and seriously affects the daily life of patients. As the pathogenesis of tinnitus is not yet clear, there is a lack of rapid and objective diagnostic modalities. In order to provide clinicians with an objective diagnostic approach, this paper combines time-frequency domain and non-linear power analysis to investigate the differences in the specificity of the EEG signal in tinnitus patients compared to healthy subjects. In this paper, resting-state electroencephalograms (EEG) were collected from 10 cases each of tinnitus patients and healthy subjects, and the

Latent Profile Analysis for Classification of Psychosomatic Symptoms in Perimenopausal Women.

BACKGROUND: Over 80% of perimenopausal women experience various physical and neuropsychiatric symptoms due to changes in hormones. However, accurate evaluation and treatment of menopausal symptoms are lacking due to limited evidence regarding customized treatment for each symptom type. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to identify and cluster psychosomatic symptoms in Korean perimenopausal women and to investigate the characteristics of each cluster type. METHODS: This Web-based survey assessed 1060 Korean perimenopausal women recruited from nationally representative panels available from a commer

Validation and clinical application of transactivation assays for RUNX1 variant classification.

Familial platelet disorder with associated myeloid malignancies (RUNX1-familial platelet disorder [RUNX1-FPD]) is caused by heterozygous pathogenic germline variants of RUNX1. In the present study, we evaluate the applicability of transactivation assays to investigate RUNX1 variants in different regions of the protein. We studied 11 variants to independently validate transactivation assays supporting variant classification following the ClinGen Myeloid Malignancies Variant Curation Expert Panel guidelines.

The 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome: Genotypic and phenotypic classification and targeted therapy.

EMS(8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome, EMS) is an aggressive hematological neoplasm with/without eosinophilia caused by a rearrangement of the FGFR1 gene at 8p11-12. It was found that all cases carry chromosome abnormalities at the molecular level, not only the previously reported chromosome translocation and insertion but also a chromosome inversion. These abnormalities produced 17 FGFR1 fusion genes, of which the most common partner genes are ZNF198 on 13q11-12 and BCR of 22q11.2. The clinical manifestations can develop into AML (acute myeloid leukemia), T-LBL (T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma),
