Introduction: We present a case of a 9-year-old girl diagnosed with a myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) harboring both monosomy 7 and an ALK/ROS1 fusion gene.
Case Presentation: The neoplasm was resistant to conventional AML chemotherapy and required hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) to achieve remission.
Discussion: MPNs with monosomy 7 and ALK/ROS1 fusions occur in a wide age range of children and adults, and require HCT for long-term remission.

Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) and disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), characterized by chronic inflammation and immune system involvement, and to provide new insights into the clinical implications of RA.
Material And Methods: A total of 148 participants, including 97 RA patients (both newly diagnosed and established cases) and 51 healthy controls, were included in the study. Disease severity was assessed using the Disease Activity Score 28 (DAS28), and the relationship between DAS28 and PIV, SII, and SIRI, obtained from complete blood count results, was investigated.

Background: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a heterogeneous disease composed of different endotypes. It is important to develop useful biomarkers for endotyping UC; however, available biomarkers are insufficient. We have already established that periostin is a surrogate biomarker of type 2 inflammation.

Background: Even though major improvements have been made in the treatment of myeloma, the majority of patients eventually relapse or progress. Patients with multiple myeloma who relapse after initial high-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cells have a median progression free survival up to 2-3 years, depending on risk factors such as previous remission duration. In recent years, growing evidence has suggested that allogeneic stem cell transplantation could be a promising treatment option for patients with relapsed or progressed multiple myeloma.

Background: In vivo T-cell depletion with antithymocyte globulin (ATG), especially at high-doses has been shown to be associated with increased incidence of infections after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). However, it remains unclear whether ATG, even at low-doses increases the risk of posttransplant infections in the high-risk HSCT setting.
Patients And Methods: We conducted a single-center retrospective study of viral and fungal infections early after transplantation, using the data from 82 patients with hematological malignancies.
