Objective: To investigate the clinical outcomes and prognostic factors of refractory/relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients who received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).
Methods: The clinical data of 80 refractory/relapsed AML patients who received allo-HSCT from December 2013 to June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including the overall survival (OS) rate, disease-free survival (DFS) rate, relapse rate, incidence of transplant-related mortality (TRM), and the related risk factors were explored.
Results: Hematopoietic reconstitution was obtained in all 80 patients after transplantation, the 3-year OS and DFS rates were (48.8±6.3)% and (40.8±6.7)%, respectively. The 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse and TRM were 33.8% (95%CI: 0.254-0.449) and 15.0%(95%CI: 0.114-0.198), respectively. Univariate analysis showed that non-remission (NR) status before transplantation, DNMT3A R882 mutations and grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) had negative effects on OS and DFS. Multivariate analysis indicated that the DNMT3A R882 mutations and grade II-IV aGVHD were independent risk factors for OS (HR=0.253, 95%CI: 0.092-0.695, P=0.008; HR=5.681, 95%CI: 2.101-15.361, P=0.001) and DFS (HR=0.200, 95%CI: 0.071-0.569, P=0.003; HR=7.117, 95%CI: 2.556-19.818, P<0.001). The 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse was 71.4%(95%CI: 0.610-0.836) in genetic high-risk group, which was higher than 23.3%(95%CI: 0.147-0.370) in intermediate-risk group and 23.5%(95%CI: 0.127-0.437) in favorable-risk group (P=0.006).
Conclusion: Allo-HSCT is an effective and safe choice for refractory/relapsed AML patients. DNMT3A R882 mutations and grade II-IV aGVHD are negative prognostic factors of allo-HSCT for refractory/relapsed AML patients.

Aim: The aim of this study is to examine the role of the microrchidia (MORC) family, a group of chromatin remodeling proteins, as the therapeutic and prognostic markers for colorectal cancer (CRC).
Background: MORC protein family genes are a highly conserved nucleoprotein superfamily whose members share a common domain but have distinct biological functions. Previous studies have analyzed the roles of MORCs as epigenetic regulators and chromatin remodulators; however, the involvement of MORCs in the development and pathogenesis of CRC was less examined.

Aims: Classification and risk stratification of endometrial carcinoma (EC) has transitioned from histopathological features to molecular classification, e.g. the ProMisE classifier, identifying four prognostic subtypes: POLE mutant (POLEmut) with almost no recurrence or disease-specific death events, mismatch repair deficient (MMRd) and no specific molecular profile (NSMP), with intermediate outcome and p53 abnormal (p53abn) with poor outcomes.

Background: Previous studies on the prevalence and prognosis of nutritional status in valvular heart disease (VHD) were primarily limited to aortic stenosis. The nutritional status of other types of VHDs remained an underexplored area.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of malnutrition risk in different types of VHD and investigate the association between malnutrition risk and adverse clinical events.

Background: Rebleeding after recovery from esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EGVB) is a severe complication that is associated with high rates of both incidence and mortality. Despite its clinical importance, recognized prognostic models that can effectively predict esophagogastric variceal rebleeding in patients with liver cirrhosis are lacking.
Aim: To construct and externally validate a reliable prognostic model for predicting the occurrence of esophagogastric variceal rebleeding.

Aim: This study was performed to evaluate the association between left atrial (LA) stiffness and outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Methods And Results: This study involved 279 patients with aortic stenosis (AS) who underwent TAVI at Kumamoto University Hospital between 2015 and 2023. During a median follow-up of 468 days (interquartile range: 258-825 days), 42 deaths occurred.
