Real-Life Data on the Efficacy and Safety of Letermovir for Primary Prophylaxis of Cytomegalovirus in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Recipients: A Single-Center Analysis.

Objective: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation is a life-threatening complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Introduction of letermovir (LMV) seems to improve post-transplant outcomes, but delayed-onset CMV reactivation still remains a challenge. In this study, we report on our first experience with LMV prophylaxis in 93 CMV-seropositive adult patients receiving HSCT in our center.

Analysis of Predictive Factors for Early Response to Ruxolitinib in 320 Patients with Myelofibrosis From the Polish Adult Leukemia Group (PALG) Registry.

Introduction: Ruxolitinib is widely used in myelofibrosis (MF). However, some patients do not optimally respond and require more efficacious treatment. Our analysis aimed to establish predictors of ruxolitinib response.

Fluid Therapy in Patients Undergoing Abdominal Surgery: A Bumpy Road Towards Individualized Management.

Prudent intraoperative fluid replacement therapy, inotropes, and vasoactive drugs should be guided by adequate hemodynamic monitoring. The study aimed to evaluate the single-centre practice on intraoperative fluid therapy in abdominal surgery (AS). The evaluation, based on a review of medical files, included 235 patients (103 men), aged 60 ± 15 years who underwent AS between September and November 2017.

The Efficacy of Cladribine (2-CdA) in Advanced Systemic Mastocytosis.

Systemic mastocytosis (SM) is a rare clonal disorder with multi-organ involvements and shortened life expectancy. To date, no curative treatment for SM exists. Cladribine (2-CdA) is a purine analogue showing activity against neoplastic mast cells and its use was found to be effective in some patients with SM.
