Introduction: CMML is a rare neoplasm with overlapping myelodysplastic and myeloproliferative features whose only potential cure is allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT).

Methods: This retrospective study examined 27 CMML patients with high-risk clinical features who underwent first allo-HCT at our institution between 2004 and 2022.

Results: Nineteen patients were diagnosed with the proliferative subtype (CMML-MPN) and 8 with the dysplastic subtype (CMML-MDS). Median OS was 15 months post-HCT (95% CI: 5-71); OS at 1, 3, and 5 years was 52%, 35%, and 35%, respectively. Compared to those with CMML-MPN, patients with CMML-MDS had longer OS (median, 8.6 vs. 0.9 years; p = 0.025), RFS (4.4 vs. 0.5 years; p = 0.021), and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS, 9.4 vs. 3.4 months; p = 0.033) as well as lower 1-year NRM (13 vs. 47%; p = 0.043), with the statistical significance of this CMML subtype effect maintained in multivariable models. High-risk cytogenetics were associated with shorter GRFS in the univariable (median, 3.1 vs. 6.2 months; p = 0.013) and multivariable (HR = 4.88; p = 0.006) settings.

Conclusions: Patients who underwent transplant for CMML-MDS experienced substantially better outcomes than those transplanted for CMML-MPN. Future studies are needed for transplantation optimization in CMML, especially CMML-MPN.

Objectives: Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a distinct subtype of breast cancer that has a poor prognosis due to the lack of effective therapeutic agents. Since a significant proportion of human surgical samples of TNBC expressed mRNA for the growth hormone (GH), growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors, and the mitogenic proliferative activity of GH, GHRH, and GnRH, have been identified as effective therapeutic targets for somatostatin and its analogs and GnRH analogs, Di Bella Method (DBM), a combination of hormonal analogs and vitamins, was introduced to target and inhibit solid tumors. The present study aimed to improve the prognosis of TNBC using DBM in women with TNBC.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is a rare form of malignant bone tumor affecting jaws. The diagnosis of jaws osteosarcoma (JO) presents a unique challenge due to its rarity and the diversity of histological presentations it can exhibit. Fibroblastic osteosarcoma (FO), a subtype of OS, is characterized by the presence of fibroblastic cells and osteoid-producing cells within the tumor matrix.

Background: Functional mitral regurgitation (MR) is a common form of mitral valve dysfunction that often persists even after surgical intervention, requiring reoperation in some cases. To advance our understanding of the pathogenesis of functional MR, it is crucial to characterize the cellular composition of the mitral valve leaflet and identify molecular changes in each cell subtype within the mitral valves of MR patients. Therefore, we aimed to comprehensively examine the cellular and molecular components of mitral valves in patients with MR.

Rationale: Castleman disease, also known as Castleman syndrome, is a rare, nonmalignant lymphoproliferative disorder. The localized subtype of this disease is primarily the hyaline vascular type of Castleman disease (HVCD). Although this disease is a benign lesion, the histologic features are similar to those of some malignant lymphomas, so an accurate diagnosis of the disease is required.
