High-dose methotrexate, etoposide, dexamethasone and pegaspargase (MEDA) combination chemotherapy is effective for advanced and relapsed/refractory extranodal natural killer/T cell lymphoma: a retrospective study.

abstract：:Recent studies have shown that tumors of relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) present additional genetic mutations compared to the primary tumors. The base excision repair (BER) pathway corrects oxidatively damaged mutagenic bases and plays an important role in maintaining genetic stability. The purpose of the presen...
