Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the frequency of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and its clinical features in two different regions of Croatia over an 11-year period.
- Researchers analyzed data from two hospitals, focusing on patient demographics, disease stage, treatment responses, and event-free survival (EFS) rates.
- Key findings revealed that PBC predominantly affects women, with a median diagnosis age of 55; most patients responded well to therapy, leading to a high EFS rate of 95.8% over five years.
Neoplastic megakaryopoiesis is a dominant feature of Philadelphia-chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (Ph- MPNs), and elevated mean-platelet-volume (MPV) is a common finding in these diseases. The clinical and prognostic significances of MPV in patients with primary (PMF) and secondary myelofibrosis (SMF) have not been reported. We retrospectively analyzed 87 patients with myelofibrosis (66 with PMF, 21 with SMF) treated at our institution.
