Quick assessment of quality‐of‐life in itch: An exploratory validation of the 5‐item pruritus life quality

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Background and objectives Chronic pruritus (CP) significantly impairs quality of life (QoL), but existing patient‐reported QoL tools are either not specific for CP or are very extensive. Patients and methods The 5‐item pruritus life quality (5PLQ, range: 5–25, 7‐day recall) was developed to assess key itch‐related QoL domains (sensory symptoms,

Bone Marrow Pathology in Cold Agglutinin‐Mediated Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia: A Study of 56 Cases

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is a rare form of autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA). CAD occurs in the context of a small clonal B‐cell lymphoproliferation restricted to blood and/or bone marrow (BM), without overt or extramedullary lymphoma. The WHO‐HAEM5 introduced a description of the CAD‐associated lymphoproliferative disorder (CAD‐LPD) in ...
