LARaLink 2.0 (Loci Analysis for Rearrangement Link) is an enabling web technology that permits the rapid retrieval of clinical cytogenetic and molecular data. New data mining capabilities have been incorporated into version 2.0, building upon LARaLink 1.0, to extend the utility of the system for applications in both the clinical and basic sciences. These include access to the Chromosomal Variation in Man database and the GEO database. Together these new resources enhance the user's ability to associate genotype with phenotype to identify potential gene candidates. Unlimited access for researchers exploring disease-gene relationships and for clinicians extending practice in patient care is available at LARaLink.bioinformatics.wayne.edu:8080/ unigene.

Multiple myeloma (MM), a clonal B-cell neoplasia, is an incurable and heterogeneous disease where survival ranges from a few months to more than 10 years. The clinical heterogeneity of MM arises from multiple genomic events that result in tumour development and progression. Recurring genomic abnormalities including cytogenetic abnormalities, gene mutations and abnormal gene expression profiles in myeloma cells have a strong prognostic power.

Background: The management of high-risk acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) remains challenging, highlighting the need for innovative conditioning strategies beyond current regimens.

Methods: In the present single-arm study, a FACT regimen comprised of low-dose total body irradiation (TBI) with fludarabine, cytarabine and cyclophosphamide was employed to treat cytogenetically high-risk AML patients exhibiting pre-transplant active disease. This clinical trial is registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry with the registration number ChiCTR2000035111.

Background/aim: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs) are clonal bone marrow disorders characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis. They are classified based on morphology and genetic alterations, with SF3B1 variants linked to favorable prognosis and MECOM rearrangements associated with poor outcomes. The combined effects of these alterations remain unclear.

Patients who develop acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after having received treatment for myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or related conditions have particularly poor outcomes. This study analyzed adult patients with newly diagnosed AML who previously had MDS, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), or MDS/myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) overlap syndrome, and who had received hypomethylating agents, chemotherapy, and/or allogeneic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for these antecedent disorders. From January 2012 to August 2023, we included 673 patients with a median age of 70 years (range, 19-94); 536 (80%) had transformed from MDS, and the remainder from CMML or MDS-MPN.

Ocular involvement of lymphoma may present as a primary orbital or intraocular lymphoma or as a manifestation of metastatic disease. Involvement of various ocular structures may be difficult to diagnose due to its rarity and nonspecific clinical presentation. Primary high-grade B-cell lymphoma with MYC and BCL2 rearrangements of the orbit has rarely been reported in the adult population and has not previously been reported in the pediatric population.
