The Role of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Ataxia‐Telangiectasia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
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.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Genetic characterization of a rare case of pheochromocytoma in a pulmonary transplant patient

Frontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundPheochromocytomas (PCCs) and paragangliomas (PGLs) (PPGLs) are rare tumours arising from the chromaffin cells. There is evidence suggesting a link between hypoxemia and PPGLs. Chronic hypoxia can lead to gain of function somatic variants in the

Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.
