Patient‐Reported Oral Symptoms and Their Impact on Well‐Being After Haematopoietic Cell Transplantation

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Oral complications may negatively influence outcomes of haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). A comprehensive view of oral symptoms and symptom burden post‐HCT is lacking. This study aimed to determine the prevalence, severity, and temporal relationships of oral symptoms and their impact on well‐being in the early post‐HCT phase.

Malaria Screening and Treatment in Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Donors and Sickle Cell Disease Candidates/Recipients: A Case Series Using Malaria Polymerase Chain Reaction Testing and a Literature Review

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Malaria polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing is more sensitive than conventional diagnostics. Routine PCR screening of at‐risk asymptomatic hematopoietic cell donors and transplant candidates may prevent unnecessary deferrals or treatment. In our experience, PCR negativity during screening or after treatment supports donor/candidate eligibility ...
