Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Quality Initiative:  Identifying Preanalytical Variables Contributing to Specimen Hemolysis and Measuring the Impact of Evidence-Based Practice Interventions.

abstract：:Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is more likely to develop in patients with Hodgkin disease (HD) than in the general population. Although reports of synchronous or metachronous HD and NHL are not uncommon in the literature, the biologic relationship of these 2 malignant neoplasms often is unclear. A larger-than-expected fra...
