Cancer and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) independently increase thrombotic risk, and their coexistence can create a particularly hazardous prothrombotic state. This case report aims to highlight the complex challenges in managing concurrent thrombotic and hemorrhagic events in patients with a history of cancer and APS. The combination of these conditions presents a rare and difficult clinical scenario, requiring careful consideration in anticoagulation management.

Background: Children from racial and ethnic minority groups are at greater risk for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, but it is unclear whether they have increased risk for post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC). Our objectives were to assess whether the risk of respiratory and neurologic PASC differs by race/ethnicity and social drivers of health.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of individuals <21 years seeking care at 24 health systems across the U.

Background: Immune effector cell (IEC) therapies, including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T-cell therapy, have shown efficacy in pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) and are being investigated for other malignancies. A common toxicity associated with IEC therapy is cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which can lead to cardiovascular decompensation due to systemic inflammation. Data are limited regarding cardiovascular adverse effects in children.

Objective: To compare the prevalence of neurodevelopmental and mental health diagnoses in a national sample of youth with sex chromosome trisomies (SCTs) with matched controls.
Methods: Patients in PEDSnet and a diagnosis code mapping to 47,XXY/Klinefelter syndrome (n = 1171), 47,XYY/Double Y syndrome (n = 243), or 47,XXX/Trisomy X syndrome (n = 262) were matched with controls using propensity scores. Generalized estimating equations computed odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the prevalence of diagnoses within the neurodevelopmental and mental health composites, psychotropic medication prescriptions, and encounters with behavioral health and therapy providers.
