I would like to request a new term: increased acute myeloid leukemia or increased acute myelocytic leukemia. I'm not sure which one is the correct term (myeloid or myelocytic; the paper I'm annotating uses myeloid). While we have an increased acute promyelocytic leukemia incidence, based on what I found on the cancer.gov website, acute promyelocytic leukemia is a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia. In J:203438, mice develop acute myloid leukemia (no mention of promyelocytic leukemia). The new term would be a child of MP:0002026 increased leukemia incidence and have MP:0004049 increased acute promyelocytic leukemia incidence as a child.
