RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Primary cutaneous peripheral T-cell lymphomas with a T-follicular helper phenotype (pcTFH-PTCL) are poorly characterized, and often compared to, but not corresponding with, mycosis fungoides (MF), Sézary syndrome, primary cutaneous CD4+ lymphoproliferative disorder, and skin manifestations of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphomas (AITL). OBJECTIVES: We describe the clinicopathological features of pcTFH-PTCL in this original series of 23 patients, and also characterize these cases molecularly. METHODS: Clinical and histopathological data of the selected patients were reviewed. Patient biopsy samples were also analysed by targeted next-generation sequencing. RESULTS: All patients (15 men, eight women; median age 66 years) presented with skin lesions, without systemic disease. Most were stage T3b, with nodular (n = 16), papular (n = 6) or plaque (atypical for MF, n = 1) lesions. Three (13%) developed systemic disease and died of lymphoma. Nine (39%) patients received more than one line of chemotherapy. Histologically, the lymphomas were CD4+ T-cell proliferations, usually dense and located in the deep dermis (n = 14, 61%), with the expression of at least two TFH markers (CD10, CXCL13, PD1, ICOS, BCL6), including three markers in 16 cases (70%). They were associated with a variable proportion of B cells. Eight patients were diagnosed with an associated B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD) on biopsy, including Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (n = 3), EBV+ LPD (n = 1) and monotypic plasma cell LPD (n = 4). Targeted sequencing showed four patients to have a mutated TET2-RHOAG17V association (as frequently seen in AITL) and another a TET2/DNMT3A/PLCG1/SETD2 mutational profile. The latter patient, one with a TET2-RHOA association, and one with no detected mutations, developed systemic disease and died. Five other patients showed isolated mutations in TET2 (n = 1), PLCG1 (n = 2), SETD2 (n = 1) or STAT5B (n = 1). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with pcTFH-PTCL have pathological and genetic features that overlap with those of systemic lymphoma of TFH derivation. Clinically, most remained confined to the skin, with only three patients showing systemic spread and death. Whether pcTFH-PTCL should be integrated as a new subgroup of TFH lymphomas in future classifications is still a matter of debate. What is already known about this topic? There is a group of cutaneous lymphomas that express T-follicular helper (TFH) markers that do not appear to correspond to existing World Health Organization diagnostic entities. These include mycosis fungoides, Sézary syndrome, or primary cutaneous CD4+ small/medium-sized T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder or cutaneous extensions of systemic peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) with TFH phenotype. What does this study add? This is the first large original series of patients with a diagnosis of primary cutaneous PTCL with a TFH phenotype (pcTFH-PTCL) to be molecularly characterized. pcTFH-PTCL may be a standalone group of cutaneous lymphomas with clinicopathological and molecular characteristics that overlap with those of systemic TFH lymphomas, such as angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, and does not belong to known diagnostic groups of cutaneous lymphoma. This has an impact on the treatment and follow-up of patients; the clinical behaviour needs to be better clarified in further studies to tailor patient management.

RESUMEN

Anger and aggression have large impact on people's safety and the society at large. In order to provide an intervention to minimise aggressive behaviours, it is important to understand the neural and cognitive aspects of anger and aggression. In this systematic review, we investigate the cognitive and neural aspects of anger-related processes, including anger-related behaviours and anger reduction. Using this information, we then review prior existing methods on the treatment of anger-related disorders as well as anger management, including mindfulness and cognitive behavioural therapy. At the cognitive level, our review that anger is associated with excessive attention to anger-related stimuli and impulsivity. At the neural level, anger is associated with abnormal functioning of the amygdala and ventromedial prefrontal cortex. In conclusions, based on cognitive and neural studies, we here argue that mindfulness based cognitive behavioural therapy may be better at reducing anger and aggression than other behavioural treatments, such as cognitive behavioural therapy or mindfulness alone. We provide key information on future research work and best ways to manage anger and reduce aggression. Importantly, future research should investigate how anger related behaviours is acquired and how stress impacts the development of anger.
