The Role of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Ataxia‐Telangiectasia
ABSTRACT Background Ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T) is a DNA repair disorder characterized by neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an established therapy in related disorders such as Fanconi anemia (FA) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), but its role in A‐T is unclear.

Pathogenic PF4/Polyanion ELISA‐Negative Antibodies in HIT
ABSTRACT Background Platelet factor 4‐polyanion enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) are considered highly sensitive for diagnosing heparin‐induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), such that current practice guidelines recommend use of ELISA‐negative results to exclude HIT.

ABSTRACT In endemic regions, markedly elevated Brucella serologic titers with a dynamic decline after treatment support true infection even in the presence of monoclonal gammopathy. Concurrent infectious and malignant processes should be considered in patients presenting with severe renal failure and overlapping systemic symptoms to avoid diagnostic ...

An Italian cartography of VEXAS‐related thrombosis
Abstract Thrombotic events (TEs) occur in up to 40% of patients with vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X‐linked, autoinflammatory, and somatic (VEXAS) syndrome, but data on its clinical‐genomics features and anticoagulation strategies are limited. To gain more insight into this, we conducted a two‐step study evaluating the prevalence and outcome of TE in VEXAS ...
