The OtR tumor recurrence and metastasis model reveals doxorubicin‐induced tumor shrinkage doesn't guarantee prolonged survival

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Tumor growth inhibition does not predict survival benefit in a clinically relevant metastasis model. Tumor local growth and systemic metastasis represent distinct biological processes. In the 4T1‐OtR model, although chemotherapy significantly suppresses primary tumor growth, it fails to prevent distant metastasis or extend overall survival.

Long‐Term Outcomes of Reduced Intensity Conditioning Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Systemic Sclerosis Patients with Impaired Cardiac Function

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective High intensity conditioning autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) is standard of care for patients with advanced SSc. The role of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) prior to AHSCT in this population remains unclear. We conducted this study to determine the long‐term outcomes of RIC AHSCT in SSc patients with cardiac ...

Do TNF Inhibitors Increase the Frequency of Thyroid Nodules in Axial-spondyloarthritis Patients? A Case–control Study

open access: yesBoğaziçi Tıp Dergisi, 2023
INTRODUCTION: Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors have made great progress in the management of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). An increase in malignancies associated with TNF inhibitors has always raised suspicions but is unproven.

Risk of cardiac, neuropsychiatric and musculoskeletal adverse events with levothyroxine: Systematic review

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Levothyroxine (LT4) is the standard treatment for hypothyroidism and the most widely prescribed medication worldwide. Although generally safe, regulatory reports list potential cardiac, neuropsychiatric and musculoskeletal adverse events (AEs). Clarifying their clinical relevance is essential.
