Efficacy and safety of olverembatinib as maintenance therapy after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation in Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Experience using olverembatinib as maintenance therapy in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph ALL) after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is limited. We retrospectively collected data from 26 patients with Ph ALL who received only olverembatinib as maintenance therapy after allo-HCT. Olverembatinib was administered as prophylaxis in 18 patients (69.

Clinical characteristics of membranous nephropathy after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: A real-world multicenter study.

Membranous nephropathy (MN) is a rare complication that can occur after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). MN patients may develop nephrotic syndrome or even kidney failure, which greatly affects their quality of life and prognosis. However, current knowledge regarding MN after allo-HSCT is limited.

Basiliximab Treatment for Patients With Steroid-Refractory Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease Following Matched Sibling Donor Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

Basiliximab is an important treatment for steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (SR-aGVHD). We performed this retrospective study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of basiliximab treatment in SR-aGVHD patients following matched sibling donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (MSD-HSCT) ( = 63). Overall response rate (ORR) was 63.

Decreasing the steroid rapidly may help to improve the clinical outcomes of patients with intestinal steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease receiving basiliximab treatment.

Intestinal steroid refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (SR-aGVHD) is the major cause of mortality in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). This retrospective cohort study aimed to identify the relationship between different steroid decreasing velocity and therapeutic response in patients with intestinal SR-aGVHD receiving basiliximab treatment, and also aimed to propose a reasonable steroid decreasing regimen for these patients. The median time for steroid dose decreasing to the 50% of initial dose and decreasing to the low-dose steroid for patients achieving ORR was 5 days and 12 days, respectively, which was both shorter than patients without achieving ORR.

Salvage haploidentical transplantation for graft failure after first haploidentical allogeneic stem cell transplantation: an updated experience.

Graft failure is a fatal complication following allogeneic stem cell transplantation where a second transplantation is usually required for salvage. However, there are no recommended regimens for second transplantations for graft failure, especially in the haploidentical transplant setting. We recently reported encouraging outcomes using a novel method (haploidentical transplantation from a different donor after conditioning with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide).

The Application of Artificial Intelligence in Thyroid Nodules: A Systematic Review Based on Bibliometric Analysis.

Background: Thyroid nodules are common lesions in benign and malignant thyroid diseases. More and more studies have been conducted on the feasibility of artificial intelligence (AI) in the detection, diagnosis, and evaluation of thyroid nodules. The aim of this study was to use bibliometric methods to analyze and predict the hot spots and frontiers of AI in thyroid nodules.

Prognostic Factors and Outcomes in Patients With Septic Shock After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

Septic shock remains a potentially life-threatening complication among allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT) recipients. There is a paucity of information on the clinical characteristics, outcome and prognostic factors of septic shock patients after allo-HSCT. We aimed to describe the clinical characteristics of septic shock after allo-HSCT and its associated health outcomes and to evaluate the role of patient demographics, transplantation-related laboratory and clinical variables associated with the short-term mortality of septic shock after allo-HSCT.

Clinical risk factors and prognostic model for patients with bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is a common and potentially devastating noninfectious pulmonary complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Currently, predictive tools for BOS are not available. We aimed to identify the clinical risk factors and establish a prognostic model for BOS in patients who undergo allo-HSCT.

Peripheral blood stem cell transplantation from haploidentical related donor could achieve satisfactory clinical outcomes for intermediate- or high-risk adult acute myeloid leukemia patients.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is the most important curative method for intermediate- and high-risk adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. We aimed to identify the clinical outcomes of haploidentical related donor (HID) peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) who receiving peripheral blood (G-PB) harvest, and the patients receiving bone marrow (BM) plus G-PB harvest (BM + PB) as grafts were enrolled as control. The engraftments of neutrophil and platelet in G-PB group were both faster than those in BM + PB group.

[Effects of moxibustion of "biaoben acupoint combination" on heart rate variability, atrial natriuretic peptide in the model rats of IBS-D complicated with anxiety].

Objective: To compare the effects on the heart rate variability (HRV) and the expression of the atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) in the model rats of irritable bowel syndrome with predominant diarrhea (IBS-D) rats complicated with anxiety between moxibustion of "biaoben acupoint combination" and that of "conventional acupoint combination".

Methods: Of 50 healthy SPF female SD rats, aged 3 months, 8 rats were selected randomly as a blank group, and the rest rats were prepared to be the model of IBS-D complicated with anxiety. Twenty-four rats after successfully modeled were randomized into a model group, a conventional acupoint combination group (convention group) and a biaoben acupoint combination group (biaoben group), 8 rats in each one.

A predictive model of herpes zoster after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: VZV reactivation following antiviral prophylaxis discontinuation.

Herpes zoster (HZ) refers to the rash appearing on dermatomes due to varicella zoster virus (VZV) reactivation. The incidence of HZ is significantly higher in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) recipients than in non-HSCT recipients. Although acyclovir prophylaxis is routinely administered to every allo-HSCT recipient for 1 year after transplantation, some individuals eventually develop late-onset HZ after completing prophylaxis.

Impact of a novel prognostic model on allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation outcomes in patients with CMML.

Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a clonal hematopoietic stem cell malignancy, and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is the only curable treatment. The outcomes after transplant are influenced by both disease characteristics and patient comorbidities. To develop a novel prognostic model to predict the post-transplant survival of CMML patients, we identified risk factors by applying univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression to a derivation cohort.

Outcomes of haploidentical haematopoietic stem cell transplantation for adolescent and young adults with acute myeloid leukaemia.

We aimed to identify the efficacy of haploidentical related donor (HID) haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in adolescent and young adults (AYAs) with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) in a large cohort. Consecutive AML AYAs (15-39 years old, n = 599) receiving HID HSCT in complete remission (CR) were included. The 3-year cumulative incidence of measurable residual disease occurrence, relapse and non-relapse mortality after HID HSCT was 28.

Predicting short-term and long-term mortalities from sepsis in patients who receive allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Patients who receive allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) may develop sepsis, which result in a highly intensive care unit admission rate and mortality. Therefore, short-term and long-term prognostic models for sepsis after allo-HSCT are urgently needed. We enrolled patients receiving allo-HSCT who developed sepsis after allo-HSCT at Peking University People's Hospital between 2012 and 2021, including 287 patients who received allo-HSCT in 2018-2021 in the derivation cohort, and 337 patients in 2012-2017 in the validation cohort.

Cytokine profiling during conditioning in haploidentical stem cell transplantation and its prognostic impact on early transplant outcomes.

Cytokine storm development is a major cause of many transplant-related complications, especially during the conditioning regimen. This study aimed to characterize the cytokine profile and determine its prognostic impact during conditioning in patients undergoing subsequent haploidentical stem cell transplantation. A total of 43 patients were enrolled in this study.

Machine learning algorithm as a prognostic tool for Epstein-Barr virus reactivation after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivation is one of the most important infections after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) using haplo-identical related donors (HID). We aimed to establish a comprehensive model with machine learning, which could predict EBV reactivation after HID HSCT with anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. We enrolled 470 consecutive acute leukemia patients, 60% of them (n = 282) randomly selected as a training cohort, the remaining 40% (n = 188) as a validation cohort.

A Prognostic Model Based on Clinical Biomarkers for Heart Failure in Adult Patients Following Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

Heart failure (HF) is an uncommon but serious cardiovascular complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Unfortunately, knowledge about early mortality prognostic factors in patients with HF after allo-HSCT is limited, and an easy-to-use prognostic model is not available. This study aimed to develop and validate a clinical-biomarker prognostic model capable of predicting HF mortality following allo-HSCT that uses a combination of variables readily available in clinical practice.

Machine learning algorithm as a prognostic tool for venous thromboembolism in allogeneic transplant patients.

As a serious complication after allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), venous thromboembolism (VTE) is significantly related to increased nonrelapse mortality. Therefore distinguishing patients at high risk of death who should receive specific therapeutic management is key to improving survival. This study aimed to establish a machine learning-based prognostic model for the identification of post-transplantation VTE patients who have a high risk of death.

Immune Reconstitution of Patients Who Recovered From Steroid-Refractory Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease After Basiliximab Treatment.

We aimed to identify the characteristics of immune reconstitution (IR) in patients who recovered from steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (SR-aGVHD) after basiliximab treatment. A total of 179, 124, 80, and 92 patients were included in the analysis for IR at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months, respectively, after haploidentical donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HID HSCT). We observed that IR was fastest for monocytes and CD8 T cells, followed by lymphocytes, CD3 T cells, and CD19 B cells and slowest for CD4 T cells.
