(Staff Photo Justin Ide/Harvard News Office) Day-care exposure may reduce Hodgkin's disease incidence Early illness primes body for later battles By Alvin Powell Harvard News Office Young adults who attended day care or nursery school when they were children were more than a third less likely to develop Hodgkin's disease, according to a new study by Harvard School of Public Health researchers. Ellen Chang, a postdoctoral fellow and a researcher in the School of Public Health's Department of Epidemiology and at Karolinska Institute in Sweden, said the reduced risk is likely because kids in day care get exposed to many common bacterial and viral infections through contact with other children. Chang said early infections can function to "prime" a still-developing part of the immune system responsible for defense against bacterial and viral invasion. Children whose bodies have to fight bacteria and viruses early develop more robust protection against infection than those who are more sheltered.

var site = "/lbf/"; HOME About the Disease About the Disease About the Disease ... News Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma What is non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma is cancer of the lymphocyte , which is a particular type of white blood cell that is produced in the bone marrow and travels in the blood to other parts of the body, normally the lymph glands.The lymph cells in these areas become malignant.Cells are programmed similarly to computer software.Lymph cells become malignant by losing the part of their cell program that teaches them how to grow and mature to carry out their function. Lymphoma happens when the 'program' inside a lymph cell becomes faulty and the growth and multiplication of the cells is no longer controlled or they fail to reach full maturity. Lymph gland tumours normally occur as enlarged lymph glands that can be felt or occasionally seen on X-rays of the chest or stomach.Most lymph gland enlargements are due to infection rather than malignant lymphoma and will resolve themselves. Occasionally lymph gland enlargements may occur as the result of the spread of cancer from other sites in the body, such as the breast, bowel or lung.

It is like a cancer, in that the affected lymphocytes stop being regulated in the normal way. In other words, they may divide abnormally or too quickly, and/or they may not die off in the way they ought to. The abnormal lymphocytes often collect in the lymph nodes , which become swollen as a result.

70. Hodgkin's Disease Hodgkin s disease, the most common lymphoma, has special characteristics that Hodgkin s disease tends to follow a more predictable pattern of spread, http://www.lewispublishing.com/hodgkins.htm

Hodgkin's Disease and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Lymphomas are cancers of the network of specialized organs and cells that defend the body against infection. The organs of the immune system are often referred to as "lymphatic" organs because they are concerned with the growth and development of the white blood cells that are the key operative of the immune system. In all forms of lymphomas. the cells in the lymph tissue begin to grow abnormally, and if left untreated, spread to other organs/ There are a number of different forms of lymphoma, whose symptoms, rate and pattern of spread, as well as treatment vary, depending on the type. The symptoms of lymphatic cancer vary from person to person and may easily be confused with noncancerous conditions. In most cases, the first sign of lymphoma is a painless swelling in the neck, armpit, or groin, caused by enlarged lymph glands. In non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, the swelling may arise in the abdomen. Some lymphoma patients complain of persistent or recurrent fever, night sweats, fatigue, and weight loss. Sometimes, itching of the skin marks the early stages of Hodgkin's disease and other lymphomas. Hodgkin's disease, the most common lymphoma, has special characteristics that distinguish it from the others. Hodgkin's disease tends to follow a more predictable pattern of spread, and its spread is generally more limited than that of the non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. The unique features of each lymphoma arise from the structure and growth pattern, or histology of the cancer cells involved.

Hodgkin's disease , sometimes called Hodgkin's lymphoma , is a cancer that starts in lymphatic tissue. Lymphatic tissue includes the lymph nodes and related organs that are part of the body's immune and blood-forming systems. The lymph nodes are small, bean-shaped organs found underneath the skin in the neck, underarm, and groin. They are also found in many other places in the body such as inside the chest, abdomen, and pelvis. Lymph nodes make and store infection-fighting white blood cells, called lymphocytes . They are connected throughout the body by lymph vessels (narrow tubes similar to blood vessels). These lymph vessels carry a colorless, watery fluid (lymphatic fluid) that contains lymphocytes. Eventually the lymphatic fluid is emptied into the blood vessels in the left upper chest.
