Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: B

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The WHO Classification defines two subgroups of precursor ALL/LBL: Precursor B-cell and precursor T-cell neoplasms (leukemia/lymphoma)

B-cell ALL/LBLs are further subgrouped as ALL with recurrent cytogenetic abnormalities and ALL not otherwise specified (NOS).
Precursor B-cell molecular ID
 1212 t(12;21)(p13;q22.3)/ETV6-RUNX1 1212 t(4;11)(q21;q23)/MLL-AFF1
 1212 t(9;22)(q34;q11)/BCR-ABL1
 1212 t(5;14)(q31;q32.3)/IL3-IGH2
 1212 t(1;19)(q23.3;p13.3)/E2A-PBX1(TCF3-PBX1)
Precursor B-cell immunophenotype: CD19, CD20, CD22, CD79a
Precursor T-cell immunophenotype: TCR, CD3, CD5, CD7 (CD2, CD4, CD8)

For about 100 years, scientists thought that peptic ulcers were caused by stress, spicy food, and alcohol. Later, researchers added stomach acid to the list of causes and began treating ulcers with antacids. Now it is known that peptic ulcers are predominantly caused by Helicobacter pylori, a spiral-shaped bacterium that normally exist in the stomach.
