Current Awareness in Hematological Oncology
Abstract
In order to keep subscribers up-to-date with the latest developments in their field, John Wiley & Sons are providing a current awareness service in each issue of the journal. The bibliography contains newly published material in the field of hematological oncology. Each bibliography is divided into 14 sections: 1 Reviews; 2 General; Leukemias: 3 Lymphoblastic; 4 Myeloid & Myelodysplastic Syndromes; 5 Chronic; 6 Others; Lymphomas: 7 Hodgkin's; 8 Non-Hodgkin's; 9 Plasmacytomas/Multiple Myelomas; 10 Others; 11 Bone Marrow Transplantation; 12 Cytokines; 13 Diagnosis; 14 Cytogenetics. Within each section, articles are listed in alphabetical order with respect to author. If, in the preceding period, no publications are located relevant to any one of these headings, that section will be omitted.
