Recurrent fusions drive the pathogenesis of many hematological malignancies. Compared to routine cytogenetic/fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) studies, the RNA-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) fusion assay enables the identification of both known and novel fusions. In many cases, these recurrent fusions are crucial for diagnosis and are associated with prognosis, relapse prediction, and therapeutic options.

Background: An increase in pandemics of zoonotic origin has led to a growing interest in using statistical prediction to identify hotspots of zoonotic emergence. However, the rare nature of pathogen emergence requires modellers to impose simplifying assumptions, which limit the model's validity. We present a novel approach to hotspot mapping that aims to improve validity by combining model-based insights with expert knowledge.

Despite the addition of immune checkpoint blockade to first-line chemotherapy, the prognosis for patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is still devastating. For the subset of SCLC with somatostatin receptor (SSTR) overexpression, radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) might be an effective future treatment option. Here, we present the case of a heavily pretreated stage IV SCLC patient showing an exceptional response to SSTR-directed RPT.

Direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) use has significantly increased because major medical organizations endorse their role for conditions in which anticoagulation is indicated. Owing to important pharmacokinetic properties, the use of apixaban and rivaroxaban requires careful consideration in at-risk populations such as those with kidney disease. Both apixaban and rivaroxaban undergo some degree of renal elimination, and thus total drug exposure is increased in patients with renal insufficiency and/or those undergoing renal replacement therapy (RRT).

Background: Although genetic factors have been identified in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), the concordance rate in monozygotic (MZ) twins is low, suggesting that other features contribute to disease development. Further, the relative contribution of such non-genetic elements in identical twins have not been characterized. Here, we aimed to measure differentiating host and microbial biomarkers of RA by studying MZ twins discordant for disease using a multi-omics approach.
