Targeted Therapies in Myelofibrosis: Present Landscape, Ongoing Studies, and Future Perspectives
ABSTRACT Myelofibrosis (MF) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm that is accompanied by driver JAK2, CALR, or MPL mutations in more than 90% of cases, leading to constitutive activation of the JAK–STAT pathway. MF is a multifaceted disease characterized by trilineage myeloid proliferation with prominent megakaryocyte atypia and bone marrow fibrosis, as ...

German guideline diverticular disease/diverticulitis
Abstract Diverticulosis and diverticular disease are ranked among the most common gastroenterological diseases and conditions. While for many years diverticulitis was found to be mainly an event occurring in the elder population, more recent work in epidemiology demonstrates increasing frequency in younger subjects.

Transmission matrix of a uniaxial optically active crystal platelet [PDF]
Expressions corresponding to the transmission of a uniaxial optically active crystal platelet are provided for an optical axis parallel and perpendicular to the plane of interface. The optical activity is taken into account by a consistent multipolar expansion of the crystal medium response due to the path of an electromagnetic wave. Numerical examples

ABSTRACT Allogeneic hematopoietic stem‐cell transplantation (HCT) remains the only potentially curative therapy for patients with myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) and myelofibrosis (MF) and is the standard care for eligible patients with higher‐risk disease. Despite significant advancements, both diseases pose unique challenges due to their clinical and

Topics of Interest in Women With Myeloproliferative Neoplasms
Women with MPN: life‐cycle phases, specific risks, and influencing factors. ABSTRACT Overview Sex and gender have emerged as central modifiers of disease biology, phenotype, and clinical outcomes in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). This review will uniquely highlight issues affecting women with MPN and articulate their relevant determinants ...

Robust Meta-Model for Predicting the Need for Blood Transfusion in Non-traumatic ICU Patients [PDF]
Objective: Blood transfusions, crucial in managing anemia and coagulopathy in ICU settings, require accurate prediction for effective resource allocation and patient risk assessment. However, existing clinical decision support systems have primarily targeted a particular patient demographic with unique medical conditions and focused on a single type of

Assessment of therapeutic platelet transfusion effectiveness in thrombocytopenic hospitalized patients in hematology unit of Emam Khomeini Hospital [PDF]
Introduction: The platelets and the endothelium plays a major role in process of hemodynamic homeostasis. According to references, the recommended dose of platelets in thrombocytopenic patient is 1 unit per 10 kg body weight, and each unit anticipated to

Severe myelosuppression and alopecia after thiopurine initiation in a patient with NUDT15 deficiency
Thiopurines are a class of immunosuppressant and antineoplastic agents. They are widely used in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, haematological malignancies and autoimmune diseases, but can cause significant toxicity. Inherited gene mutations are now recognized as independent risk factors for severe adverse drug reactions to thiopurines ...
