Primary myelofibrosis with increased haemoglobin concentration at presentation
Subjects with primary myelofibrosis and elevated haemoglobin levels at diagnosis tend to have longer survival rates (OS) and blast transformation‐free survival (BTFS) than those with normal or reduced haemoglobin levels. Summary One hundred of 963 consecutive registrants with primary myelofibrosis (PMF) in the Pavia‐CSM database had haemoglobin ...

In the last years, a growing amount of evidence has been produced regarding the role of leukocytosis as a risk factor for thrombosis in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms, predominantly in polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocythemia (ET).

Treatment with pegylated interferon α resulted in a molecular response in 91% of patients with an average decrease in JAK2V61F VAF of 48.5% from baseline. In patients that discontinued treatment, the JAK2V617F VAF at the time of treatment discontinuation was the best indicator of durable remission over the 6‐month follow‐up period.

Isolated cerebellar infarction in a case of JAK 2 mutation-negative polycythemia vera: A case report
Polycythemia vera is a myeloproliferative disorder caused by clonal expansion of erythroid precursors in the bone marrow commonly due to a mutation in the Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) gene located in the short arm of chromosome 9. Hyperviscosity of blood due to

ABSTRACT Previous studies investigating the role of TP53 mutations in chronic phase MPN have yielded inconsistent results. As such, the clinical relevance of these mutations remains to be elucidated. We report a case of a 67‐year‐old woman with a leukemic transformation of a post‐polycythaemia vera myelofibrosis (post‐PV MF) that culminated in the rare

Thromboembolic events in polycythemia vera
Thromboembolic events and cardiovascular disease are the most prevalent complications in patients with polycythemia vera (PV) compared with other myeloproliferative disorders and are the major cause of morbidity and mortality in this population. Moreover,

Abstract Background Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is associated with adverse outcomes. We hypothesized that CH (JAK2V617F and CALR) is associated with cancer, vascular disease, and all‐cause mortality, even at a variant allele frequency (VAF) <1%. Methods We screened 19,832 individuals from the Danish General Suburban Population Study for JAK2V617F and ...
