Relationship between age, conditioning intensity, and outcome after allografting in adults age ≥60 years with AML.

Methodological advancements now allow older adults with AML to receive allografts although conflicting data exist regarding relative outcomes across age groups and benefits of different conditioning intensities. We retrospectively analyzed 495 adults aged 60-64 (n = 184), 65-69 (n = 189), or ≥70 (n = 122) allografted for AML in remission at our institution from 2006 to 2023. There were no significant differences in relapse or relapse-free survival (RFS) among the 3 age cohorts after multivariable adjustment.

Overcoming Shifting Baselines: Paleo-Behaviour Reveals Industrial Revolution as Tipping Point.

Human activities have significantly altered coastal ecosystems worldwide. The phenomenon of shifting baselines syndrome (SBS) complicates our understanding of these changes, masking the true scale of human impacts. This study investigates the long-term ecological effects of anthropogenic activities on New Zealand's coastal ecosystems over 800 years using fish otolith microchemical profiling and dynamic time warping across an entire stock unit.

Beyond , Pharmaceutical Molecule Production in Cell-Free Systems and the Use of Noncanonical Amino Acids Therein.

Throughout history, we have looked to nature to discover and copy pharmaceutical solutions to prevent and heal diseases. Due to the advances in metabolic engineering and the production of pharmaceutical proteins in different host cells, we have moved from mimicking nature to the delicate engineering of cells and proteins. We can now produce novel drug molecules, which are fusions of small chemical drugs and proteins.

Interstitial High-Dose-Rate Brachytherapy Combined with External Beam Radiation Therapy for Dose Escalation in the Primary Treatment of Locally Advanced, Non-Resectable Superior Sulcus (Pancoast) Tumors: Results of a Monocentric Retrospective Study.

: To analyze the results of interstitial (IRT) high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy (BT) in the primary treatment of patients with unresectable superior sulcus tumors (SST) combined with external beam radiotherapy (EBRT). : Between 2013 and 2023, seven patients with unresectable SST were treated with combined BT and EBRT with or without concomitant chemotherapy. The patients' median age was 64 years (range, 49-79 years) and median tumor volume was 146.
