Comparison of graft-versus-host disease-free, relapse-free survival according to a variety of graft sources: antithymocyte globulin and single cord blood provide favorable outcomes in some subgroups

Haematologica, 2016
Graft-versus-host disease-free relapse-free survival, which is defined as the absence of grade III–IV acute graft-versus-host disease, systemically treated chronic graft-versus-host disease, relapse, and death, is a novel, meaningful composite end point ...

Imbalance of effector and regulatory CD4 T cells is associated with graft-versus-host disease after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using a reduced intensity conditioning regimen and alemtuzumab

Haematologica, 2009
Background A variety of immune pathways can lead to graft-versus-host disease. A better understanding of the type of immune response causing graft-versus-host disease in defined clinical hematopoietic stem cell transplant settings is required to inform ...

Influence of grafting on the glass transition temperature of PS thin films [PDF]

Eur. Phys. J. E (2017) 40: 11, 2017
We present an investigation of the effect of the interaction between a thin polystyrene film and its supporting substrate on its glass transition temperature (Tg). We modulate this interaction by depositing the film on end-tethered polystyrene grafted layers of controlled molecular parameters.

Comparable composite endpoints after HLA-matched and HLA-haploidentical transplantation with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide

Haematologica, 2017
Composite endpoints that not only encompass mortality and relapse, but other critical post-transplant events such as graft-versus-host disease, are being increasingly utilized to quantify survival without significant morbidity after allogeneic blood or ...

Cytokines in Graft-versus-Host Disease [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2015
Abstract Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a complication of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation whereby transplanted naive and marrow-derived T cells damage recipient tissue through similar mechanisms to those that allow destruction of malignant cells, the therapeutic intent of bone marrow transplantation.

Lichenoid variant of chronic cutaneous graft versus host reaction post blood transfusion: A rare event post blood transfusion

Indian Journal of Dermatology, 2015
Chronic graft versus host disease (GVHD) is a less frequently seen disease that occurs post solid organ or bone marrow transplantation. Chronic GVHD occurring post blood transfusion is an even more uncommon disease.

Magnetron plasma mediated immobilization of hyaluronic acid for the development of functional double-sided biodegradable vascular graft [PDF]

, 2020
The clinical need for vascular grafts is associated with cardiovascular diseases frequently leading to fatal outcomes. Artificial vessels based on bioresorbable polymers can replace the damaged vascular tissue or create a bypass path for blood flow while stimulating regeneration of a blood vessel in situ.

Minors come of age: minor histocompatibility antigens and graft-versus-host disease [PDF]

, 2004
Minor histocompatibility antigens (miHA) are responsible for the occurrence of graft-versus-host disease in the setting of a major histocompatibility complex matched sibling allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
