2. Anion gap - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anion_gap

   The anion gap [1] [2] (AG or AGAP) is a value calculated from the results of multiple individual medical lab tests. It may be reported with the results of an electrolyte panel, which is often performed as part of a comprehensive metabolic panel .

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_myeloma

   MGUS is a relatively stable condition afflicting 3% of people aged 50 and 5% of people aged 70; it progresses to multiple myeloma at a rate of 0.5–1% cases per year; smoldering multiple myeloma does so at a rate of 10% per year for the first 5 years, but then falls off sharply to 3% per year for the next 5 years and thereafter to 1% per year.

4. Plasma cell dyscrasias - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_cell_dyscrasias

   In hematology, plasma cell dyscrasias (also termed plasma cell disorders and plasma cell proliferative diseases) are a spectrum of progressively more severe monoclonal gammopathies in which a clone or multiple clones of pre-malignant or malignant plasma cells (sometimes in association with lymphoplasmacytoid cells or B lymphocytes) over-produce and secrete into the blood stream a myeloma ...

5. Cell survival curve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_survival_curve

   Clonogenic survival assays are generally used to garner data for a cell survival curve. [4] Clonogenic survival assays begin by harvesting from a growing cell stock through gentle scraping and application of Trypsin. Cells are then counted per unit volume manually (through application of Hemocytometer) or electrically. Cells are then isolated ...

   Serum protein electrophoresis showing a paraprotein (spike/peak in the gamma zone) in a patient with multiple myeloma.. A myeloma protein is an abnormal antibody (immunoglobulin) or (more often) a fragment thereof, such as an immunoglobulin light chain, that is produced in excess by an abnormal monoclonal proliferation of plasma cells, typically in multiple myeloma or Monoclonal gammopathy of ...

7. Plasmacytoma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasmacytoma

   Most cases of SPB progress to multiple myeloma within 2–4 years of diagnosis, but the overall median survival for SPB is 7–12 years. 30–50% of extramedullary plasmacytoma cases progress to multiple myeloma with a median time of 1.5–2.5 years. 15–45% of SPB and 50–65% of extramedullary plasmacytoma are disease free after 10 years.
