The IL‐10/IL‐6 Ratio and the Risk Score: Two Cytokines‐Based Predictors for Malignancy‐Associated Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis in Adults (M‐HLHa)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The predictive value of cytokines (CK) for malignancy‐associated adult hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (M‐HLHa) remains uncertain. We evaluated a cytokine‐based Risk Score (RS) and the IL‐10/IL‐6 Ratio to predict M‐HLHa. Adult patients (n = 112) from the French HLH cohort (NCT02113917) with complete data for nine key HLH related CK measured

tanggle: An R package for the visualization of phylogenetic networks

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Phylogenetic trees depict evolutionary relationships among taxa. However, they are strictly bifurcating structures that do not take into account several types of evolutionary events such as horizontal gene transfer, hybridization, or introgression. Although the development of new methods in phylogenetic networks has recently increased,
