Q: Given a passage classify if the passage has a definite objective/aim/goal or not. Output '1' if the passage has a defininte objective/aim/goal and output '0' if the passage does not have a definite objective/aim/goal.
Limited data are available on intestinal MALT lymphoma owing to its relatively rare occurrence. The frequency of associated genetic changes was therefore analysed in intestinal MALT lymphoma to determine whether primary and secondary examples may be distinguished by their genetic profile.', 'Patients diagnosed with MALT lymphoma involving the intestine were evaluated and compared with 71 cases with localised gastric MALT lymphoma. Paraffin embedded samples were evaluated for t(11;18)(q21;q21) by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, and by fluorescence in situ hybridisation for t(14;18)(q32;q21), t(1;14)(p22;q32), and trisomies 3 and 18.', '30 consecutive patients with MALT lymphoma involving the intestine were identified: 16 had primary intestinal lymphoma and 14 had secondary MALT lymphoma. t(11;18)(q21;q21) was found in one third of the patients, but there was a significant difference between the secondary MALT lymphomas and the primary intestinal and gastric MALT lymphoma groups (57% v 12.5%, p = 0.019, and 57% v 24%, p = 0.022). Two patients with primary intestinal MALT lymphomas were positive for t(1;14)(p22;q32) and none was positive for t(14;18)(q32;q21). Primary intestinal MALT lymphoma had a significantly higher frequency of trisomies 3 or 18 (81% v 36%, p = 0.024; 81% v 14%, p<0.001), in contrast to secondary intestinal MALT lymphomas and localised gastric MALT lymphomas.
