A phase 1b study of venetoclax and azacitidine combination in patients with relapsed or refractory myelodysplastic syndromes

American Journal of Hematology, Volume 98, Issue 2, Page 272-281, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) higher‐risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) have a dismal median overall survival (OS) after failing hypomethylating agent (HMA) treatment. There is no standard of care for patients after HMA therapy failure; hence, there is a critical need for effective therapeutic strategies.

Genetic Characterization of the Central Variable Region in African Swine Fever Virus Isolates in the Russian Federation from 2013 to 2017

Pathogens, 2022
African swine fever virus (ASFV), classified as genotype II, was introduced into Georgia in 2007, and from there, it spread quickly and extensively across the Caucasus to Russia, Europe and Asia. The molecular epidemiology and evolution of these isolates

Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors in the management of Waldenström macroglobulinemia

American Journal of Hematology, Volume 98, Issue 2, Page 338-347, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors have taken a central role in the management of patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia and are the only agents approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat these patients. Although associated with high rates of durable responses, unmet needs with BTK inhibitor therapy include ...

Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth Affects the Responsiveness to Colchicine in Familial Mediterranean Fever

Mediators of Inflammation, 2017
Objective. Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease due to a MEFV gene mutation. Since Helicobacter pylori infection has been described to increase the severity and frequency of FMF attacks, we evaluate if overgrowth of small ...

A mathematically assisted reconstruction of the initial focus of the yellow fever outbreak in Buenos Aires (1871) [PDF]

Papers in Physics 5, 050002 (2013), 2014
We discuss the historic mortality record corresponding to the initial focus of the yellow fever epidemic outbreak registered in Buenos Aires during the year 1871 as compared to simulations of a stochastic population dynamics model. This model incorporates the biology of the urban vector of yellow fever, the mosquito Aedes aegypti, the stages of the ...
