The efficacy and safety of venetoclax combined with reduced dose HAD regimen in the treatment of newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) was investigated. From May 2022 to January 2023, a total of 25 patients with newly diagnosed AML were treated with venetoclax combined with reduced-dose HAD regimen as induction therapy. Accoding to the 2017 ELN recommendations, 13 (52.0%) in favoable, 3 (12.0%) in intemediate, and 9 (36.0%) in adverse. The ORR (CR rate+PR rate) was 88.0%, and the CR rate was 84.0%. By May 30, 2023, with a median follow-up of 9 months, 1 year overall survival, event-free survival, and relapse-free survival were 100%, 94.7%, and 94.7%, respectively. All patients received 1-5 cycles of consolidation therapy and two median cycles. Treatment with venetoclax and reduced dose of HAD regimen in the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed AML was high effective and safe.

Background: The Chronic Ocular Pain Questionnaire (COP-Q) is a newly developed patient-reported outcome (PRO) measure intended to assess symptoms and impacts associated with Chronic Ocular Surface Pain (COSP). This study assessed the psychometric properties of the COP-Q to determine the adequacy of the COP-Q as a 'fit-for-purpose' instrument to derive trial endpoints for future clinical studies in COSP.
Methods: Patients with COSP completed the COP-Q daily for four weeks on an electronic, touch-screen, tablet device as part of a longitudinal, observational study in the United States (N = 124).

Purpose: As the use of robotic platforms for inguinal hernia repairs continues to grow, the rTAPP (Robotic Trans-Abdominal Pre-Peritoneal) approach is being performed significantly more often than rTEP (Robotic Totally Extra-Peritoneal) and is predominantly taught to newly trained robotic surgeons. This study's primary objective was to evaluate the feasibility of a proposed modified rTEP technique that incorporates balloon dissection as a primary tool, enabling the horizontal placement of three trocars aligned with the umbilicus. Secondary objectives included evaluation of safety and effectiveness of this technique, and of the learning curve required to reach proficiency.

Objective: Our previous studies have indicated potentially higher proliferative activity of tumor cells in Chinese patients with mantle-cell lymphoma (MCL) than those in Western. Given the success and tolerability of R-DA-EDOCH immunochemotherapy in treating aggressive B-cell lymphomas, we designed a prospective, phase 3 trial to explore the efficacy and safety of alternating R-DA-EDOCH/R-DHAP induction therapy for young patients with newly diagnosed MCL. The primary endpoint was the complete remission rate (CRR) at the end of induction (EOI).

Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is more often characterized by clonal plasma cell proliferation restricted to the bone marrow. However, a small percentage of patients with MM develop extramedullary disease (EMD): this type of localization is found in 1.7%-4.

Introduction: The analysis of the costs associated with treating acromegaly and its complications is important in planning diagnostics and treatment for a single patient, as well as in establishing the standard of care for the entire population of acromegaly patients. Data on the actual costs of treating patients with acromegaly in Poland are limited.
Aims Of The Study: To determine the direct cost (hospital stays, diagnostic imaging, surgical treatment, pharmacotherapy, tumour irradiation) of treating patients with acromegaly and its complications, assessing the relationship between acromegaly treatment costs and the radical nature of the treatment.
