  1. Alive: alive without disease; AWD: alive with disease; CHOP: cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, vincristine, prednisolone; DOD: dead on disease; IPI: International Prognostic Index; LDH ratio: measured value/normal value; MRM: modified radical mastectomy; MACOP-B: methotrexate, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisolone, bleomycin; RT: radiation therapy; RM: radical mastectomy; THP-COP: cyclophosphamide, THP-doxorubicin (pirarubicin), vincristine, prednisolone; VC: vincristine; VDS: vindesine; VEPA: vinblastine, etoposide, prednisone, doxorubicin; mo: months.
  2. aTumor size was decided by palpation.
  3. ba/b means that IPI was a or b because the LDH ratio of the patient was unknown.
  4. crelapse lesions in bladder and abdomen were DLBCL.
