Objectives The optimal dosing schedule strategy for granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) in healthy stem cell donors remains controversial. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of once-daily versus twice-daily G-CSF administration in allogeneic stem cell donors. Materials and methods We retrospectively analyzed data from 388 healthy unrelated donors (282 males, 106 females) who underwent stem cell mobilization at our center between September 2018 and June 2022.

Background: Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) or syndrome (CAS) can be particularly challenging when autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is needed. Standard peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) collection and manipulation involve ex vivo blood manipulations at lower than body temperature, predisposing to agglutination during graft collection, handling, processing, and infusion.
Study Design And Methods: We describe the first case of ASCT for relapsing lymphoma in a patient with high-titer CAD requiring anti-complement therapy and chronic transfusion.
Complement-Mediated Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome Due to MCP/CD46 Mutation: A Case Report.

Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a severe condition characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and end-organ damage, often involving the kidneys. Complement-mediated hemolytic uremic syndrome (cHUS), a rare form of TMA, arises from dysregulated alternative complement pathway activation, frequently due to genetic mutations. We report the case of a 23-year-old male presenting with TMA secondary to a heterozygous mutation in the membrane cofactor protein (MCP/CD46) gene.

Department of Gastroenterology, Yan'an Hospital Affiliated to Kunming Medical University, Kunming, Yunnan, 650051, China.
Background: This study examines the role and effectiveness of double filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) in managing hyperlipidemiclipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP).
Methods: Comparative analysis was conducted between two groups: one treated with DFPP and one without. Comparative parameters included blood lipid levels, inflammatory factors, vital signs, disease severity scores, and complication rates.
Safety and efficacy of nipocalimab in adults with generalised myasthenia gravis (Vivacity-MG3): a phase 3, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study.

Janssen Research & Development, a Johnson & Johnson Company, Titusville, NJ, USA.
Background: Given burdensome side-effects and long latency for efficacy with conventional agents, there is a continued need for generalised myasthenia gravis treatments that are safe and provide consistently sustained, long-term disease control. Nipocalimab, a neonatal Fc receptor blocker, was associated with dose-dependent reductions in total IgG and anti-acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibodies and clinically meaningful improvements in the Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) scale in patients with generalised myasthenia gravis in a phase 2 study. We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of nipocalimab in a phase 3 study.
