Background: Survival after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) has increased but so have long-term sequelae. New-onset post-transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) occurs frequently following allo-HSCT.
Patients And Methods: Study endpoints were incidence and risk factors of PDTM. We studied 599 adult patients suffering from either acute myeloid leukemia n=220), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (n=79), chronic myeloid leukemia (n=22), myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm (n=105), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (n=37), lymphoma/myeloma (n=116, or non-malignant disorders (e.g. bone marrow failure, hemoglobinopathies) (n=20) who underwent myeloablative (466; 77.8%) or non-myeloablative (131; 21.9%) allo-HSCT between 2006 and 2016.
Results: Altogether, 39 patients (6.5%) developed PTDM. In a competing-risk analysis, time to PTDM was associated with acute grade 2-4 graft-versus-host-disease (p=0.017). Further cardiovascular risk factors were hypertension (n=145; 24.2%), coronary artery disease (n=36, 6%), dyslipidemia (n=139; 23.3%), and stroke (n=12; 2%).
Conclusion: After allo-HSCT, a significant number of patients developed PTDM and patients with acute graft-versus-host-disease were found to have a higher risk for PTDM. Long-term and continuous follow-up for diabetes and cardiovascular risk factors after HSCT is important in order to be able to provide timely and appropriate treatment.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the clinicopathologic features of primary fallopian tubal carcinoma (PFTC) and high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) and explore the prognostic factors of these two malignant tumors.
Methods: Fifty-seven patients diagnosed with PFTC from 2006 to 2015 and 60 patients diagnosed with HGSOC from 2014 to 2015 with complete prognostic information were identified at Women's Hospital of Zhejiang University. The clinicopathological and surgical data were collected, and the survival of the patients was followed for 5 years after surgery.

Mosquito-borne flaviviruses represent a public health challenge due to the high-rate endemic infections, severe clinical outcomes, and the potential risk of emerging global outbreaks. Flavivirus disease pathogenesis converges on cellular factors from vectors and hosts, and their interactions are still unclear. Exosomes and microparticles are extracellular vesicles released from cells that mediate the intercellular communication necessary for maintaining homeostasis; however, they have been shown to be involved in disease establishment and progression.

Background: Over one-third of the global stillbirth burden occurs in countries affected by conflict or a humanitarian crisis, including Afghanistan. Stillbirth rates in Afghanistan remained high in 2021 at over 26 per 1000 births. Stillbirths have devastating physical, psycho-social and economic impacts on women, families and healthcare providers.

Background: To identify the relationship between BMI or lipid metabolism and diabetic neuropathy using a Mendelian randomization (MR) study.
Methods: Body constitution-related phenotypes, namely BMI (kg/m), total cholesterol (TC), and triglyceride (TG), were investigated in this study. Despite the disparate origins of these data, all were accessible through the IEU OPEN GWAS database ( https://gwas.

Background: Sequential CD19 and CD22 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy offers a promising approach to antigen-loss relapse in relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL); however, research in adults remains limited.
Methods: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sequential CD19 and CD22 CAR-T cell therapy in adult patients with R/R B-ALL between November 2020 and November 2023 (ChiCTR2100053871). Key endpoints included the adverse event incidence, overall survival (OS), and leukemia-free survival (LFS).
