CAR-T therapy (chimeric antigen receptor T-cell) has revolutionized the prognosis of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that have relapsed or are refractory to conventional chemotherapies. In particular, patients who have relapsed or are refractory to two lines of therapy are patients who have a poor prognosis. The advent of CAR-T immunotherapy is an innovative approach with which we can give hope of recovery even in the case of refractory disease, even for patients who are not candidates for high-dose therapies, for example due to age.

A 28-year-old woman was diagnosed with high-risk triple-expressor diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (stage IV, IPI 4, CNS-IPI 5), with lymph node and extranodal involvement. The patient underwent first-line R-CHOP treatment, achieving a partial response with residual mediastinal uptake. A second-line platinum-based therapy with a transplant plan followed, resulting in stable disease; thus, she was considered refractory and started third-line therapy with CAR-T cells, receiving additional chemotherapy as bridging therapy.

Apathy is a common neuropsychiatric symptom following stroke, characterized by reduced goal-directed behavior. The reward decision network (RDN), which plays a crucial role in regulating goal-directed behaviors, is closely associated with apathy. However, the relationship between poststroke apathy (PSA) and RDN dysfunction remains unclear due to apathy heterogeneity, the confounding effect of depression and individual variability in lesion impacts.
