 Abstract

The quest for identity has always been a recurring theme in literature since times immemorial, but in recent times the endeavor has become more complex. The so-called Theatre of the Absurd, hailed in the 20th century which has Harold Pinter as one of the canonical writers, produced some intriguing works focusing on the nothingness and meaninglessness of existence, offering us vague glimpses of a person's identity. Pinter's introduction of the "menace" and his pinteresque style further complicate the quest for the identity of his characters. Lack of adequate background information and antecedents about the characters and the resultant ambiguity shrouding their identities in all his plays is a strategy he has employed to make the plays open-ended. The present article thus aims to answer the question of identity of the characters of Pinter's maiden play The Room by looking at both the historical and cultural perspectives of the time when the play was written. Since the characters in the play are highly ambiguous and obscure with almost no past and no future, it is only possible to trace and explore their present identities based on the history and the culture of the current society where the play was written.

 Abstract

The Philadelphia chromosome and the bcr-abl fusion gene cause aberrant myeloid cell proliferation, which is the hallmark of chronic myeloid leukemia (cml), a Myeloproliferative disease. Patient outcomes have significantly improved over the past 20 years due to considerable breakthroughs in treatment, especially with the development of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (tkis) like Imatinib. Tkis are now the mainstay of cml treatment, allowing 85-95% of patients to survive during the chronic periods while achieving a long-term remission. Patients who do not respond to first-generation tkis are treated with second- and third-generation tkis, such as dasatinib, nilotinib, andponatinib. For individuals who do not react to tkis, stem cell transplantation is still a curative option, albeit with increased risks. Leukapheresis, chemotherapy, and interferon-alpha are further treatments that are generally saved for particular situations or crises. It is essential to regularly assess hematologic, cytogenetic, and molecular responses in order to modify treatment and sustain remission. With improved survival rates and quality of life, cml is no longer a fatal disease for the majority of patients, thanks to treatment advancements.
