Abstract

Leukemia is a type of blood cancer, which caused 474,519 new cases recorded worldwide in 2020 with an age-standardized incidence rate of 5.4 in 100,000 and 311,594 linked deaths were reported in terms of mortality (Huang et al., 2022). Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is one of the 4 subtypes in leukemia and it contributes to roughly 31% of all leukemia cases (Cancer.Net, 2019). The purpose of this paper is to conduct a general overview of the classification, pathogenesis, symptoms, diagnosis, treatments and the current research of AML.
