A COMPARISON OF THE MEASUREMENT OF GAMMA GLOBULIN IN CEREBROSPINAL FLUID BY ELECTROPHORETIC AND IMMUNOLOGICAL METHODS.

abstract：:A prospective study of bone marrow fibrosis was made in a group of 40 children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia to see whether it affected the prognosis or course of the disease. Secondary myelofibrosis (SMF) was present at diagnosis in 57% of the cases. It was not statistically significantly related to the prognosi...
