Understanding the early features and characteristics of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is essential for identifying high-risk individuals and also providing valuable pathological insights. This study aims to investigate the characteristics and trends of blood and hepatic parameters before an HLH diagnosis was established. Longitudinal hematological and hepatic test results from pediatric patients with HLH and an age- and sex-matched control group were analyzed.

Chediak-Higashi syndrome (CHS) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterized by severe immunodeficiency, albinism and coagulation deficiency. Mostly diagnosed in early childhood, this devastating condition is associated with lysosomal abnormalities attributed to the absence or impaired function of lysosomal trafficking regulator caused by mutations in the CHS1/LYST gene. In current study, we report a case of late-onset CHS caused by two novel compound heterozygous CHS1/LYST mutations: c.

BCMA-directed chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR T) therapies, including idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) and ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel), have transformed the treatment landscape for relapsed-refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), offering remarkable efficacy with hallmark toxicity risks of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS). The FDA mandates a 4-week monitoring period at the treatment center as part of a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) to monitor and manage these toxicities, which, while prudent, may add unnecessary challenges related to access and socioeconomic disparities. We sought to assess CRS and ICANS onset and duration, as well as causes of non-relapse mortality (NRM) in real-world BCMA CAR T recipients in order to better inform future changes to the monitoring guidelines for CAR T recipients.

Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis is an inflammatory condition which results in over activation of the immune system. It could be either sporadic or familial. The familial subtype is linked with various genetic mutations and is commonly a disease of the young.
