Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) are a group of autoimmune disorders characterized by immune cell infiltration of muscle tissue accompanied by inflammation. Treatment of IIMs is challenging, with few effective therapeutic options due to the lack of appropriate models that successfully recapitulate the features of IIMs observed in humans. In the present study, we demonstrate that immunodeficient mice transplanted with human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (hPBMCs) exhibit the key pathologic features of myositis observed in humans and develop graft-versus-host disease.

The emergence of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) has improved the prognosis for lung cancer patients with EGFR-driven mutations. However, acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs poses a significant challenge to the treatment. Overcoming the resistance has primarily focused on developing next-generation targeted therapies based on the molecular mechanisms of resistance or inhibiting the activation of bypass pathways to suppress or reverse the resistance.

Small bowel obstruction (SBO) is a leading cause of general surgery inpatient admissions. SBO is most commonly associated with postoperative adhesions; however, neoplastic SBO is an important differential. Here, we present a case of neoplastic SBO secondary to leiomyosarcoma in a patient with known mature B cell lymphoma.

An adolescent girl with acute myeloid leukaemia underwent chemotherapy followed by haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Post-HSCT, she developed oral chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD), which was successfully treated. Twenty months later, she was referred to the gynaecology department for evaluation of secondary amenorrhoea.

Background: V617F-mutated myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) exhibit abnormal proliferation of bone marrow progenitors and increased risk of thrombosis, specifically in splanchnic veins (SVT). The contribution of the endothelium to the development of the prothrombotic phenotype was explored.
Material And Methods: Plasma and serum samples from V617F MPN patients with (n=26) or without (n=7) thrombotic debut and different treatments, were obtained (n=33).
