Clinical and biochemical footprints of inherited metabolic disease. XVI. Hematological abnormalities.

Many classical inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) are associated with significant hematological complications such as anemia or thrombosis. While these may not be the prominent presenting feature of these conditions, management of these issues is important for optimal outcomes in people with IMDs. Some disorders that are included in the nosology of inherited metabolic disorders, such as inherited disorders of red cell energy metabolism, have purely hematological features, and have typically been cared for by a hematologist.

Posttransplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder After Solid Organ Transplant: A Heterogeneous, Aggressive Disorder.

Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a rare complication of solid organ transplant. We identified 40 patients diagnosed with PTLD between 2009 and 2020 and analyzed their presentation, treatment strategies, and outcomes. Median age at diagnosis was 52.

Improving our fundamental understanding of the role of aerosol-cloud interactions in the climate system.

The effect of an increase in atmospheric aerosol concentrations on the distribution and radiative properties of Earth's clouds is the most uncertain component of the overall global radiative forcing from preindustrial time. General circulation models (GCMs) are the tool for predicting future climate, but the treatment of aerosols, clouds, and aerosol-cloud radiative effects carries large uncertainties that directly affect GCM predictions, such as climate sensitivity. Predictions are hampered by the large range of scales of interaction between various components that need to be captured.
