Background/Objectives: Rasburicase is licensed for the management of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) at a daily dose of 0.2 mg/kg intravenously for five days. The use of a single-dose treatment is popular in adult oncology but information in pediatric use...
Background/Objectives: Acute leukemias in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with Down Syndrome (DS) are understudied. Methods: This was a single-center, retrospective cohort study. Medical records for pediatric DS (n = 41) and AYA-DS (n = 7) treate...
Background: Ibrutinib, a Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi), has revolutionized the treatment of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL), yet hepatotoxicity remains a rare and poorly characterized adverse event. Case Presentation: We report t...
Background: Evans syndrome is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA), and autoimmune neutropenia, typically triggered by an episode of immune dysregulation or multiple other factor...
The only cytogenetic alteration defining a subtype of a myelodysplastic syndrome is represented by the deletion of the long arm of chromosome 5 (del(5q)), now classified as MDS with isolated del(5q). This subtype is associated with a peculiar phenoty...
Background/Objectives: Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a distinct subtype of acute myeloid leukemia characterized by the t(15;17)(q24;q21) translocation, generating the PML::RARA fusion gene that blocks myeloid differentiation and drives leukem...
Background/Objectives: Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) represents a rare but clinically significant complication in patients with Common Variable Immunodeficiency (CVID). Immune dysregulation, impaired viral control, and Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infectio...
Background and Clinical Significance: Mastocytosis and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) include conditions in which patients manifest signs, symptoms, and laboratory findings consistent with mast cell activation and can only be diagnosed in the p...
Objective: To describe the epidemiology, survival rate, and prognostic factors of mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Patients and Methods: This investigation utilized the Thai Lymphoma Study Group (TLSG) registry to gather data on pa...
Background: This study evaluated possible variations in classic blood coagulation parameters according to groups formed from the main erythrocyte antigen systems. Methods: Consecutive patients admitted to a transfusion hemotherapy service at a privat...
Background/Objectives: In children developing B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), an immune evasion event takes place where otherwise “silent” preleukemic cells undergo a malignant transformation while escaping immune control, of...
Background: The aim was to evaluate whether an artificial intelligence (AI)-based tool for the automated quantification of the total metabolic tumour volume (tMTV) in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) could support nuclear medicine specialists in l...
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive clonal hematopoietic malignancy, characterized by marked biological heterogeneity and variable clinical outcomes. Among its rarer genetic subsets is AML with rearrangements of the MDS1 and EVI1 complex lo...
Myelodysplastic neoplasms represent a diverse group of clonal hematopoietic stem cell disorders characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, peripheral cytopenias, and an inherent risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia. Accurate risk assessment...
Background/Objectives: The role of daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (DRd) in autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT)-eligible patients with multiple myeloma (MM) after first-line bortezomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone (VCd) t...
Multiple myeloma is a hematological cancer depicted by the proliferation of plasma cells within the bone marrow, causing immune dysfunction and other abnormalities. The gut microbiome, the microbial community in the gastrointestinal tract, was found...
Background: Primary central nervous lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare, aggressive, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Outcomes are poor with standard induction of high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX)-based regimens and consolidation. We present retrospective data fro...
