Prognostic impact of low muscle mass and low muscle density in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

abstract：:Tumor-infiltrating immune cells perform a crucial function in host immune reactions against diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). In this study, we have identified a subset of tumor-infiltrating FOXP3-positive regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the initial DLBCL biopsy specimens, and have evaluated their prognostic signif...
