Expert Perspectives on a Clinical Challenge: Hematologic Malignancies and Vasculitis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Systemic vasculitis describes a collection of rare diseases each caused by inflammation of blood vessel walls that can cause severe systemic complications [[3, 4]](#ref‐0003). The pattern of vascular inflammation and resultant damage is frequently variable and may be mimicked, or directly triggered, by infection or malignancy.

N6‐methyladenosine‐regulated exosome biogenesis orchestrates an immunosuppressive pre‐metastatic niche in gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis

Cancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis is clinically challenging, given the limited treatment options and poor prognosis. The molecular mechanisms that precede gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis, known as the pre‐metastatic niche (PMN), and its relationship with N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) modification remain unclear.

Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Prior to Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Acute Coronary Syndrome: Prevalence and Outcomes in Contemporary Practice

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is standard following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Preloading is the practice of administering both aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor before PCI. DAPT preloading is common practice, however clinical trial evidence demonstrating benefit is lacking.

Infectious Complications of Transfusion of Blood Components

, 2018
Transfusions are lifesaving but are not without some risks. During the middle of the last century, infectious complications were common from transfusions. By the mid 1980s the risk of transfusion transmission of infections became much lower. With the advent of emerging diseases, however, infectious risks became more prominent for a period of time.
