Prognostic Factors for Survival in Adults With Burkitt Lymphoma: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is a rare and aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Several studies have identified prognostic factors (PFs) for disease progression and mortality among adults with BL. However, there is no consensus on risk stratification based on PFs. This study aims to identify, critically assess, and synthesize the available evidence on PFs for survival in adults with BL.

Methods

A systematic review was conducted. Medline, EMBASE, and CENTRAL were searched from inception to February 22, 2022. Randomized or non-randomized clinical trials and longitudinal observational studies were eligible for inclusion. Reference screening, data extraction, and risk-of-bias assessment were conducted independently and in duplicate. Publication bias was examined b
