Segmental jumping translocation in leukemia and lymphoma with a highly complex karyotype.

abstract：:Interleukin-6 (IL-6) has been shown to increase platelet counts in several animal models and to enhance megakaryocytopoiesis in vitro. In order to investigate the possible relationship between IL-6 and thrombocytosis, serum IL-6 levels in patients with platelet counts > or = 6 x 10(5)/microliters were measured using a...
