Tripartite prehabilitation of patients with acute myeloid leukaemia and high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes during intensive chemotherapy before allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (COHABILIT): protocol for an innovating prospective multicentre study.

Objectives: Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are often treated with intensive chemotherapy followed by allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). The pretransplant treatment results in a general deterioration of the patient's health and quality of life. Furthermore, allo-HSCT can be responsible for significant toxicity with risks of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD).

Consenting rather than choosing. A qualitative study on overseas patients' decision to undergo hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Objective: Reasons for patients' acceptance of the allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) proposed and how their decision may be affected by the long distances involved have not been sufficiently investigated so far. We therefore conducted a qualitative study to identify the factors involved in overseas patients' decision to accept allo-HSCT.

Methods: In-depth semi-directive interviews were conducted with overseas allo-grafted patients (n = 22), as well as one non-consenting patient and their caregivers (n = 24).

Lived experience of State-sponsored intra-national overseas therapeutic mobility for stem cell transplantation.

This article focuses on the lived experience of patients with haematological cancer who were transferred from La Réunion (a French overseas Department) to mainland France to undergo allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Based on a qualitative study conducted between February 2020 and January 2021 with allo-HSCT recipients, their family caregivers and healthcare professionals, we examined the social, economic and cultural factors shaping the patients' complex experience. We have called this kind of State-sponsored intra-national medical transfer "overseas therapeutic mobility".

SGLT2 inhibitors as potentially helpful drugs in PI3K inhibitor-induced diabetes: a case report.

Background: Hyperglycemia is the most common side-effect of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors that are approved for the treatment of some advanced or metastatic breast cancers. This side-effect is likely due to the central role of PI3K in insulin signalling. Here we report the use of a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor to manage severe hyperglycemia.
