✦ Synopsis


The records of a group of 337 adult patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma seen at the Stanford University Medical Center, Division of Oncology were examined for relationships between stage and histopathological classification and simple demographic characteristics. Patients with Stages I and I1 of disease and diffuse varieties of lymphotna were found to be younger than patients in other categories. An excess of male patients was noted particularly in younger patients with diffuse lymphoma and Stages I and I1 of disease. Male patients with Stages I and I1 disease were noted to be bimodally distributed with respect to age, with peak numbers of patients in the fourth and sixth decades. This was particularly apparent among patients with diffuse histiocytic lymphoma. The implications of these findings are discussed.

## Abstract Chemokines and their receptors regulate the trafficking of immune cells during their development, inflammation, and tissue repair. The single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1801157 (previously known as CXCL12‐A/ stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 (SDF1)‐3β€²A) in CXCL12/SDF1 gene was assessed
