58. Noting that non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas (NHL) represent a heterogeneous group of diseases in which<br />

prognosis is difficult to predict, Christiansen et al. (A-61) report on the prognostic aspects of soluble<br />

intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) in NHL. Among the data collected were the following<br />

serum sICAM-1 (ng/ml) levels in four groups of subjects: healthy controls (C), high-grade NHL<br />

(hNHL), low-grade NHL (1NHL), and patients with hairy cell leukemia (HCL).<br />
