Haematological malignancies comprise a diverse group of life-threatening systemic diseases, including leukaemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. Currently available therapies, including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and CAR-T cells, are often associated with important side effects and with the development of drug resistance and, consequently, disease relapse. In the last decades, it was largely demonstrated that the tumor microenvironment significantly affects cancer cell proliferation and tumor response to treatment.

Background: We aimed to identify the central lifestyle, the most impactful among lifestyle factor clusters; the central health outcome, the most impactful among health outcome clusters; and the bridge lifestyle, the most strongly connected to health outcome clusters, across 29 countries to optimise resource allocation for local holistic health improvements.
Methods: From July 2020 to August 2021, we surveyed 16 461 adults across 29 countries who self-reported changes in 18 lifestyle factors and 13 health outcomes due to the pandemic. Three networks were generated by network analysis for each country: lifestyle, health outcome, and bridge networks.

Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a malignancy characterized by abnormal production of monoclonal immunoglobulins in plasma cells. Bispecific antibodies have emerged as a significant advancement in MM treatment, offering high effectiveness and specificity by targeting different antigens such as BCMA, CD38, and FcRH5. However, the risk of infection poses a major challenge in MM patients, which is thought to be influenced by various factors.

Interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4) is specifically overexpressed in multiple myeloma (MM) and mediates MM progression and survival, making it an emerging target for MM treatment. However, no chemical entity with a defined structure capable of directly binding to and inhibiting IRF4 has been reported. We screened our small library of steroid analogs and identified bisnoralcohol (BA) derivative 18 as a novel hit compound capable of inhibiting IRF4, with an IC of 13.

This retrospective study aimed to stress the advantages of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) in treating primary MM. Ninety-four MM patients who underwent initial parallel sequential auto-HSCT were selected. Data on efficacy (efficacy evaluation, renal function and hemoglobin recovery), immune reconstitution (B-cell subsets, immunoglobulin levels, T-cell subsets, NK cells, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR)) and hematopoietic reconstitution times were collected and analyzed.
