Summary

This study examines stored lymph node samples from 100 people in Botswana who had lymphoma between 2012 and 2017. Researchers want to see how often Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is found in these samples, and whether HIV infection makes a difference. The goal is to better understand the role of EBV in lymphomas in this region.
