Intensive Chemotherapy With or Without Midostaurin in Adults ≥ 60 Years Old With FLT3‐Mutated AML: A FILO‐DATAML‐PETHEMA Real‐World Study

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The addition of midostaurin (MIDO) to intensive chemotherapy (IC) improves survival in younger adults with FLT3‐mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML); however, real‐world data in elderly patients (≥ 60 years) are limited. This large, retrospective, multicenter study from three European registries (PETHEMA, FILO, DATAML) evaluated MIDO+IC (n ...

A Systematic Review of Adverse Childhood Experiences and Epigenetic Age Acceleration in Later Adult Life Measured With Second and Third‐Generation Epigenetic Clocks

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examined the relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) in adulthood as measured by second and third generation epigenetic clocks by performing a systematic review of the literature. The electronic databases MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched on 17 July 2023.

A Population‐Based Assessment of Cancer Risk in Children With VACTERL

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cancer risk in children with VACTERL, a nonrandom co‐occurrence of ≥ 3 defects (vertebral, anal, cardiac, tracheoesophogeal fistula, renal, and limb), remains unclear. We evaluated this association in a population‐based study. We analyzed data from the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Study, a US registry linkage ...

Are There Causal Associations Between Obsessive‐Compulsive Disorder and Cardiometabolic Phenotypes? A Genetic Correlation and Bi‐Directional Mendelian Randomization Study

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In epidemiological studies, obsessive‐compulsive disorder (OCD) is robustly associated with increased risk of cardiometabolic disorders, including cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. However, the mechanisms behind these associations are unclear. We conducted genetic correlation analyses to explore shared genetic etiology and

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia Have Distinct Prediagnostic Blood Biochemical Profiles

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Identifying modifiable factors influencing amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) risk is important for prevention. Blood biomarkers, particularly cholesterol, have been associated with neurodegenerative risk, but findings in ALS are inconsistent, and data on FTD are limited.

Late Pregnancy Antiseizure Medication Exposure and Offspring Neurodevelopmental Risk: A Multi‐Child Cohort Study

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Antiseizure medication (ASM) use during pregnancy has increased over the past decade. However, evidence linking prenatal ASM exposure to neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) in offspring remains inconsistent. This study evaluated whether prenatal ASM exposure increases the risk of NDDs in children.
