The objective is to explore the impact of computer-supported reorganization of oral anticoagulation treatment follow-up in a multi-year, multi-clinic pilot study. The focus is on how changes in workflow, namely in anticoagulation workload distribution between nurses and physicians, interact with the quality of care immediately after initial deployment and then later on during the pilot study. The results show that decreases in the physician's time allocation did not result in a lessened quality of care during periods after reorganization.

Downstaging of hepatocellular carcinoma before liver transplantation: Results from a national multi-center prospective cohort study.
Hepatology
January 2025
Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, CA.
Background Aims: Patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) meeting UNOS-downstaging (DS) criteria have excellent post-liver transplantation (LT) outcomes. Studies on HCC beyond UNOS-DS criteria ("All-comers" (AC)) have been limited by small sample size and short follow-up time, prompting this analysis.
Approach Results: 326 patients meeting UNOS-DS and 190 meeting AC criteria from 9 LT centers across 5 UNOS regions were enrolled from 2015 to 2023 and prospectively followed.
Variations in the TP53 and KRAS genes indicate a particularly adverse prognosis in relapsed pediatric T-ALL. We hypothesized that these variations might be subclonally present at disease onset and contribute to relapse risk. To test this, we examined two cohorts of children diagnosed with T-ALL: one with 81 patients who relapsed and 79 matched non-relapsing controls, and another with 226 consecutive patients, 30 of whom relapsed.

Although recent evidence suggests that myeloid clonal hematopoiesis (M-CH) may influence lymphoma clinical outcome, its impact in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) remains unclear. Here, we report a comprehensive NGS-based analysis of the M-CH mutational landscape at baseline and follow-up in patients enrolled in the Fondazione Italiana Linfomi (FIL) MCL0208 phase 3 trial (NCT02354313), evaluating lenalidomide maintenance versus observation after chemoimmunotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in untreated young MCL patients. Overall, 254/300 (85%) enrolled patients (median age 57 years [32-66]) had a baseline sample available for CH analysis.

Introduction: Thermal ablative methods (such as argon plasma coagulation (APC) and soft tip snare coagulation (STSC) are commonly used to treat polyp margins. We aim to appraise the current literature and compare clinical outcomes between patients with treated (with APC vs. STSC) and non-treated endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) margins.

Department of Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH.
Objective: This study aimed to determine if routine dual-stage nonunion repair (DSR) surgery lead to better outcomes than single-stage nonunion (SSR) repair surgery in fracture nonunions without evident clinical or laboratory signs of infection.
Methods: Design: Retrospective comparison study.
Setting: Level One Trauma Center affiliated with an academic teaching hospital.
