Reversal of myelofibrosis by hydroxyurea [PDF]
Abstract: Bone marrow morphology in 39 symptomatic patients with myeloproliferative disorders (polycythaemia vera 15, essential thrombocythaemia 14, idiopathic myelofibrosis 9, myeloproliferative syndrome 1) and elevated platelet counts was studied before and after a median of 18 months of continuous treatment with hydroxyurea.

Traditional dosing strategies often rely on a “one‐size‐fits‐all” paradigm, assuming an “average” patient with typical demographic and pharmacological characteristics. In reality, this often overlooks existing between‐patient variability and can lead to suboptimal drug exposure or toxicity. This issue is especially pronounced in pediatric patients, who

Natural History of Chronic Kidney Disease in Sickle Cell Disease. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Kidney complications, referred to as nephropathy, develop early in sickle cell disease (SCD). In addition to its known morbidity, abundant data show that chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an increased mortality risk in SCD. Increasing evidence suggests that the natural history of SCD nephropathy is progressive. Initial glomerular

Melanonychia secondary to hydroxyurea [PDF]
A 69-year-old woman with recently diagnosed, essential thrombocytosis was treated with hydroxyurea (1 g daily) and anagrelide (0.5 mg twice daily) for 4 weeks. Because of well-controlled platelet count, the use of hydroxyurea was suspended. One month later, she presented to our emergency department (ED) with an extraordinarily high platelet count (2 ...

Circulating monocyte partitioning and its alteration in hematological chronic neoplasms
Abstract Circulating monocyte partitioning refers to the relative quantification of the three main monocyte subsets in the peripheral blood, namely classical (cMo), intermediate (iMo), and non‐classical (ncMo) monocytes, as assessed by flow cytometry, a new nomenclature described 15 years ago.

Abstract Background The promoters and enhancers of heat shock genes, such as the 1.5‐kb promoter of the zebrafish hsp70l gene, are valuable tools for temporal activation of transgenes. It has been widely purported that heat shock treatments result in ubiquitous expression of hsp70l‐driven transgenes.
