Context: Music listening (ML) has been shown to have a beneficial effect on patients with cancer. However, novel intervention approaches are needed.
Objectives: We aimed to determine whether ML based on the iso-principle, conducted using a mobile application (GloMus), improves symptom burden, quality of life (QoL), anxiety, and depression in patients undergoing stem cell transplantation (SCT) and intensive induction chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
Background: Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is an immune-mediated adverse drug reaction associated with thrombosis. Clinical scoring systems and the presence of anti-platelet factor 4 (anti-PF4)/heparin antibodies determine the diagnosis.
Case Presentation: A 57-year-old man who was treated with acenocoumarol due to a chronic left ventricular thrombus was admitted to the hospital for severe SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia and pulmonary embolism.
Article Synopsis
- Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is a rare type of T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that needs surgical treatment, with additional therapy recommended for advanced cases.
- A 40-year-old woman presented with symptoms related to BIA-ALCL after having textured silicone implants for seven years; she underwent surgery and chemotherapy, leading to temporary remission.
- Further research is needed to define optimal therapies for advanced BIA-ALCL, and mediastinal biopsies are important to differentiate between cancer relapse and conditions like rebound thymic hyperplasia (RTH).
The spectrum of COVID-19 infection includes acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), although the histological basis for these disorders has not been thoroughly explored. Post-mortem pulmonary and bone marrow biopsies were performed in 33 patients. Samples were studied with a combination of morphological and immunohistochemical techniques.
