Thrombocytopenia developed in a 21-year-old patient with sarcoidosis when corticosteroid therapy was discontinued. Platelet-associated IgGs were elevated. High-dose cortisone did not affect the thrombocytopenia. However, platelet counts remained normal for more than 1.5 years following intravenous treatment with a single course of human gammaglobulins.

Factors Associated with Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation in Late Repair of Tetralogy of Fallot.
Pediatr Cardiol
January 2025
Pediatric Intensive Care Department, Wolfson Medical Center, Holon, Israel.
Research establishing factors associated with duration of mechanical ventilation after Tetralogy of Fallot repair, is mainly based on population presenting at early infancy. There are fewer reports regarding repair after infancy, during childhood and preadolescence. To compare two groups of late TOF repair based on post-operative invasive mechanical ventilation duration and explore associations with pre-operative clinical markers of severity of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction.

School of Life Course & Population Sciences, Faculty of Life Sciences & Medicine / MPH Student, King's College London, UK, London; Health Economics and Policy Research Unit, Wolfson Institute of Population Health / Lecturer in Health Econmics, Queen Mary University of London, UK, London. Electronic address:
Objectives: To examine recent economic evaluations, whether any type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) screening designs may represent better value for money, and to rate their methodological qualities.
Methods: We systematically searched three concepts (economic evaluations (EEs), T2DM, screening) in three databases (Medline, Embase, and EconLit) for EEs published between 2010 and 2023. Two independent reviewers screened for and rated their methodological quality (using CHEC-Extended).
Utility of Thrombopoietin Receptor Agonists (TPO-RAs) for Prolonged Thrombocytopenia After CAR-T Cell Therapy.
Transplant Cell Ther
January 2025
The University of Chicago Medical Center, Chicago IL.
Background: Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has revolutionized the treatment landscape for various hematological malignancies. However, it is associated with a range of hematologic complications, including severe and often prolonged thrombocytopenia. Currently, there are no known effective preventative or management measures against CAR-T-induced thrombocytopenia.

Department of Radiation Oncology, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, USA. Electronic address:
Background And Purpose: The normal tissue sparing afforded by FLASH radiotherapy is being intensely investigated for potential clinical translation. Here, we studied the effects of FLASH proton radiotherapy (F-PRT) in the reirradiation setting, with or without hypofractionation. Chronic toxicities in three murine models of normal tissue toxicity including the intestine, skin, and bone were investigated.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
January 2025
Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Chemical Sciences Division, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
Antimony-119 (119Sb) is one of the most attractive Auger-electron emitters identified to date, but it remains practically unexplored for targeted radiotherapy because no chelators have been identified to stably bind this metalloid in vivo. In a departure from current studies focused on chelator development for Sb(III), we explore the chelation chemistry of Sb(V) using the tris-catecholate ligand TREN-CAM. Through a combination of radiolabeling, spectroscopic, solid-state, and computational studies, the radiochemistry and structural chemistry of TREN-CAM with 1XX/natSb(V) were established.
