Identification of CSF3R Mutations in B-Lineage Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Using Comprehensive Cancer Panel and Next-Generation Sequencing.

B-lineage acute lymphocytic leukemia (B-ALL) is characterized by different genetic aberrations at a chromosomal and gene level which are very crucial for diagnosis, prognosis and risk assessment of the disease. However, there is still controversial arguments in regard to disease outcomes in specific genetic abnormalities, e.g.

Clinical course of myeloproliferative leukaemia virus oncogene (MPL) mutation-associated familial thrombocytosis: a review of 64 paediatric and adult patients.

Familial thrombocytosis (FT) is a rare hereditary haematological disorder characterised by increased platelet count, usually caused by germ-line mutations in thrombopoietin (THPO), myeloproliferative leukaemia virus oncogene (MPL) or Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) genes, and can be associated with increased risk of thrombosis. We aimed to determine the yield of diagnostic tests, assess treatment received and describe the clinical course of MPL-associated FT. We retrospectively reviewed all paediatric and adult haematology patients diagnosed with MPL-related FT, who were seen in our clinics from March 2013 to February 2021.

Herb-induced acute bone marrow intoxication and interstitial nephritis superimposing glomerular C1q deposition in a patient with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is a rare disease of the red blood cell membrane that renders it lyzable by the complement system, leading to chronic intravascular hemolysis. Renal hemosiderosis is a well-known complication of intravascular hemolytic anemia and can lead to acute kidney injury and renal failure. The use of herbal medicine is common worldwide.
