Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are heterogeneous groups of clonal myeloid disorders characterized by unexplained persistent peripheral blood (PB) cytopenia(s) of one or more of the hematopoietic lineages, or bone marrow (BM) morphologic dysplasia in hematopoietic cells, recurrent genetic abnormalities, and an increased risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In the past several years, diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic approaches have substantially improved with the development of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) diagnostic testing and new medications. However, there is no single diagnostic parameter specific for MDS, and correlations with clinical information, and laboratory test findings are needed to reach the diagnosis.

The management of patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) refractory to hypomethylating agents (HMAs) remains a challenge with few reliably effective treatments. Preclinical studies have shown that the inhibition of the nuclear export protein XPO1 causes nuclear accumulation of p53 and disruption of NF-κB signaling; both of which are relevant targets for MDS. Selinexor is an XPO1 inhibitor with demonstrated efficacy in MDS patients.

Methods: The authors analyze the characteristics, therapeutic approaches, and outcomes of patients with HMA-sAML from the Programa Español para el Tratamiento de Hemopatías Malignas (PETHEMA) registry.
Results: A total of 479 patients were included, mostly from prior myelodysplastic syndrome (84%).

We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the outcomes of Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) in the treatment of Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS). A literature search was performed on PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science. After screening 397 articles, 10 studies were included.

Objective: To explore the mutation of gene in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), and explore their correlation with mutations of other genes, clinical features and prognostic of patients.
Methods: High throughput DNA sequencing was used to identify mutations in common blood tumor genes. The mutational characteristics of the gene and the correlation between gene mutations and patients clinical characteristics and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed.

Objective: To explore the characteristics of gene mutation in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and its correlation with clinical features.
Methods: From January 2017 to December 2021, 172 patients with MDS in The First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University were analyzed retrospectively. Fourteen high frequency genes related to MDS were detected, and the relationship between gene mutation and clinical characteristics of patients as well as revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) was analyzed.
