Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is characterized by the accumulation of B cells due to constitutive B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling, leading to apoptosis resistance and increased proliferation. This study evaluates the effects of the Bruton Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) inhibitor ibrutinib on the molecular composition, clonality, and kinetics of B cells during treatment in CLL patients. Employing a multi-omics approach of up to 3.

Methods: The nationwide register-based cohort study included 12 994 patients diagnosed with leukaemia, multiple myeloma and lymphoma in 2014-2018 and 10 matched references. Patient pathways were analysed in unplanned routes (acute admission up to 1 month's prior diagnosis) and elective routes (other routes, e.
Background: Female minipuberty is characterized by complex dynamics of circulating reproductive hormones, while the relationship between ovarian and uterine morphology and reproductive hormones remains to be elucidated.
Aim: To investigate the association between reproductive hormones and ovarian as well as uterine morphology by transabdominal ultrasound (TAUS) at minipuberty.
Methods: Secondary analysis from The Copenhagen Analgesic Study (COPANA) (ClinicalTrials.
