This study delves into the intricate landscape of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine response in immunodeficient patients, focusing on the dynamics of both humoral and cell-mediated immunity. The cohort includes patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CVI),...

Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasms (BPDCNs) are a rare, highly aggressive hematological malignant neoplasm that primarily involve the skin, bone marrow, lymph nodes and even extra-nodal sites. The rarity and relative poor description of ca...

Background: Platelet “Microvesicles” (MVs) are studied for their role in blood coagulation and inflammation. The study aimed to establish if MVs are related to age, plasma levels of inflammation, coagulation, and fibrinolysis markers in h...

In Philadelphia chromosome-positive B-cell (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (LLA), growing evidence has accumulated regarding the efficacy of low-intensity and chemo-free regimens. Our objective was to analyze all recent trials evaluating these tre...

We report a case of a 24-year-old man who developed angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) after treatment for refractory lymphocyte-rich classic Hodgkin lymphoma (LR-CHL). This patient was treated with the BV+AVD (brentuximab vedotin, doxorubicin...

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major public health issue worldwide. Red cell distribution width (RDW) has been reported to have predictive value in several diseases, including DM. Few data exist on the association between RDW and the prediabetic stage....

Methotrexate (MTX), a structurally related substance to folic acid, is an important chemotherapeutic agent used for decades in the treatment of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and other types of cancer as non-Hodgkin lymphomas and osteos...

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) are two subtypes of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The simultaneous occurrence of DLBCL and AITL in a composite lymphoma is very rare, and there are no established treat...

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous hematological malignancy that is often associated with relapse and drug resistance after standard chemotherapy or targeted therapy, particularly in older patients. Hematopoietic stem cell transplants ar...

Prophylactic treatment with emicizumab has become an important and effective bleeding prevention for people with hemophilia A (PwHA). Perioperative management of PwHA using emicizumab prophylaxis is still challenging due to a lack of experience. Medi...

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an intermediate-grade B-cell lymphoma, representing 2.8% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas in the US. It is associated with t(11;14)(q13; q23), which leads to the overexpression of cyclin D1, consequently promoting cell proli...

European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) hematologic response categories comprehensively assess complement inhibitor responses in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). Using data from the 16-week randomized cont...

COVID-19, caused by SARS-CoV-2, and its variants have spread rapidly across the globe in the past few years, resulting in millions of deaths worldwide. Hematological diseases and complications associated with COVID-19 severely impact the mortality an...

Monoclonal T-cell lymphocytosis has been reported in patients with concomitant autoimmune diseases, viral infections, or immunodeficiencies. Referred to as T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGLL), most cases cannot identify the triggering...

Background: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) was described to affect red blood cells (RBC) in both severe and mild disease courses. The aim of this study was to investigate whether hematological and hemorheological changes that were previously des...
