No impact of steatotic liver disease on clinical outcomes in patients with essential thrombocythemia and polycythemia vera: A pilot study.

The presence of steatotic liver disease (SLD) is associated with an increased cardiovascular risk in the general population. Chronic myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), essential thrombocythemia (ET) and polycythemia vera (PV), are characterized by clonal myeloproliferation, chronic inflammatory state, and increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The aim of this single-center study was to analyze clinical associations and the potential prognostic impact of SLD in ET and PV patients.

Prolonged Proton Pump Inhibitor Use and Thrombohemorrhagic Risk in Essential Thrombocythemia and Polycythemia Vera Patients Treated with Long-Term Aspirin: A Pilot Study.

Introduction: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are known to decrease the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. However, concerns have been raised regarding the potential pharmacodynamic interactions of PPIs and antiplatelet drugs with respect to cardiovascular risk. Patients with BCR::ABL1-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and polycythemia vera (PV) often suffer from peptic ulcer disease (PUD) and frequently receive low-dose aspirin due to an intrinsically high thrombotic risk.
