Abstrakt: A recent study conducted at the University of Nigeria examined the impact of staging and tumor bulk on treatment outcomes in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The researchers found that the absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) at presentation was correlated with the duration of survival in CLL patients. They recommend using ALC as a prognostic marker in resource-constrained environments like Nigeria. This study provides valuable insights into the treatment outcomes of CLL and highlights the need for accessible and affordable predictive tools in low-resource settings. [Extracted from the article]
