This could be interesting

I received an email from an Oncology magazine and this was listed as one of the enclosed articles. I have just come home from hospital and have to get ready for work and therefore, I don't have time to read it.


Study Discounts Age Limit on Stem Cell Transplants
Elsevier Global Medical News, 2008 Dec 8, S Boschert
Age should no longer be a contraindication to allogeneic transplantation, according to results of a large retrospective study of AML and MDS patients.


Hope it has some good news.
