Clinical efficacy and safety assessment of tedizolid using therapeutic drug monitoring.

Thrombocytopenia derived from tedizolid (TZD) has been reported but less frequently than that from linezolid. Only a few reports have investigated the relationship between the efficacy and safety of TZD administration. This study aimed to measure TZD concentration and investigate the relationship between efficacy and safety.

Parallel labeled-line organization of sympathetic outflow for selective organ regulation in mice.

The sympathetic nervous system is crucial for responding to environmental changes. This regulation is coordinated by the spinal sympathetic preganglionic neurons (SPNs), innervating both postganglionic neurons and the adrenal gland. Despite decades of research supporting the concept of selective control within this system, the neural circuit organization responsible for the output specificity remains poorly understood.

Real-world toxicity and efficacy of asciminib in heavily pretreated patients with chronic myeloid leukemia.

Although tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have improved the prognosis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), some patients do not respond to TKIs. We evaluated 21 patients with CML treated with asciminib, which is effective in heavily pretreated patients. The median age was 63 years (range 25-82).

Impact of bone marrow nucleated cell subfractions on transplant outcomes in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Objectives: Our previous study showed that a high pre-transplant nucleated cell count in the bone marrow is associated with increased non-relapse mortality (NRM) and decreased overall survival (OS) in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in remission. In this retrospective multicenter study, we aimed to examine the association between nucleated cell subfractions and transplant outcomes using the same patient cohort as our previous study.

Methods: This study included patients with ALL who underwent their first allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) between 2010 and 2022.

Selective vulnerability of parvocellular oxytocin neurons in social dysfunction.

Selective vulnerability offers a conceptual framework for understanding neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease, where specific neuronal types are selectively affected and adjacent ones are spared. However, the applicability of this framework to neurodevelopmental disorders, particularly those characterized by atypical social behaviors, such as autism spectrum disorder, remains uncertain. Here we show that an embryonic disturbance, known to induce social dysfunction in male mice, preferentially impaired the gene expression crucial for neural functions in parvocellular oxytocin (OT) neurons-a subtype linked to social rewards-while neighboring cell types experienced a lesser impact.
