"Our estimates of long-term survival in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma obtained by the period analysis for the 2002 to 2004 period are much higher than previously available survival estimates, which mostly pertain to patients diagnosed in the 1990s," the researchers concluded. "Timely disclosure of the improvements in survival achieved in patients, clinicians, researchers and the public is essential."

The study was published in the March 10 issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine.
