Spontaneous regression of methotrexate-related lymphoproliferative disorders (MTX-LPDs) occurs in some patients after withdrawal of MTX. However, the mechanisms by which MTX withdrawal contributes to the spontaneous regression of MTX-LPDs have not been fully elucidated. We herein show that spontaneous regression of MTX-LPDs is associated with the development of significant and transient T-cell large granular lymphocyte (T-LGL) lymphocytosis induced by MTX withdrawal. Since T-LGLs show strong cytotoxicity, their expansion may contribute to the spontaneous regression of lymphoma. Therefore, the development of T-LGL lymphocytosis maybe associated with a favorable prognosis in MTX-LPD patients.

Objective: To study the correlation between anti-Müllerian hormone levels and pregnancy outcomes after in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, which remains controversial.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study recruited 4,719 women with infertility and polycystic ovary syndrome aged 20-40 years who underwent treatment at the Reproductive Center of Peking University Third Hospital between February 2017 and June 2023. We divided the participants into three groups according to the 25th and 75th percentile cutoffs of serum anti-Müllerian hormone: low (≤ 4.
Predictive role of SLC1A5 in neuroblastoma prognosis and immunotherapy.

Department of Pediatric Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, Henan, China.
Background: Neuroblastoma, a prevalent extracranial solid tumor in pediatric patients, demonstrates significant clinical heterogeneity, ranging from spontaneous regression to aggressive metastatic disease. Despite advances in treatment, high-risk neuroblastoma remains associated with poor survival. SLC1A5, a key glutamine transporter, plays a dual role in promoting tumor growth and immune modulation.

Division of Rheumatology, Allergy and Immunology, Department of Medicine, University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Cincinnati, OH, USA.
Background: In the context of injectable biologic products approved or in development for chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), it is important to capture which treatment attributes matter most to patient and what trade-offs patients are willing to make.
Objectives: The CHOICE-CSU study aimed to quantify patient preferences toward injectable treatment attributes among patients with CSU, inadequately controlled by H1-antihistamines.
Methods: This was a two-phase cross-sectional patient preference study in adult patients with a diagnosis of CSU, inadequately controlled by H1-antihistamines.
Prevalence and Prognostic Impact of ST Segment Elevation in Lead aVR Among Patients with Cardiac Arrest.
Eur Heart J Acute Cardiovasc Care
January 2025
Section of Cardiovascular Medicine, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, CT.
Background: In acute coronary syndrome, ST-segment elevation in lead aVR (STE-aVR) indicates global myocardial ischemia, often related to multivessel or severe left main disease, and correlates with increased mortality. The prevalence and prognostic significance of STE-aVR in cardiac arrest (CA) patients is unknown.
Methods: We identified patients (≥18 years) with CA between 2011 to 2022 who achieved return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).
