   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Hodgkin_lymphoma

   The familial risk of lymphoma is elevated for multiple lymphoma subtypes, suggesting a shared genetic cause. However, a family history of a specific subtype is most strongly associated with risk for that subtype, indicating that these genetic factors are subtype-specific.

4. T-cell lymphoma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-cell_lymphoma

   Although the cause of T-cell lymphoma is not definitive, it has been associated with various risk factors and viruses such as Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) and human T-cell leukemia virus-1 (HTLV1). [2] The prognosis and treatment of T-cell lymphoma can vary drastically based on the specific type of lymphoma and its growth patterns.

5. Hodgkin lymphoma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodgkin_lymphoma

   The two major types of Hodgkin lymphoma are classic Hodgkin lymphoma and nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma. [5] About half of cases of Hodgkin lymphoma are due to Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) and these are generally the classic form. [3] [11] Other risk factors include a family history of the condition and having HIV/AIDS.

6. Indolent lymphoma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indolent_lymphoma

   First-degree family history of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, hematological malignancy, or hepatitis C infection are linked to an increased risk of indolent lymphoma. [8] There are also specific risk factors for individual subtypes. Higher body mass index (BMI) as a young adult, occupation as a spray painter, sedentary lifestyle, and high levels of ...

7. Infectious causes of cancer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infectious_causes_of_cancer

   Estimates place the worldwide risk of cancers from infectious causes at 16.1%. [1] Viral infections are risk factors for cervical cancer, 80% of liver cancers, and 15–20% of the other cancers. [2] This proportion varies in different regions of the world from a high of 32.7% in Sub-Saharan Africa to 3.3% in Australia and New Zealand. [1]
