Mutation profiling by next-generation sequencing (NGS) has facilitated understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and has been incorporated into the new disease classification (International Consensus Classification; ICC) and risk classification (European LeukemiaNet [ELN] 2022; ELN2022). We compared disease subtypes between the previous disease classification (4th edition of the WHO classification; WHO-4) and the ICC in 91 patients with AML diagnosed at our institution. We also compared disease risk classifications using the previous risk classification (ELN2017) and the ELN2022. Targeted sequencing of bone marrow samples was conducted at Kyoto University. We found that entities under AML with recurrent genetic abnormalities were well-established, with almost no change from the WHO-4 to the ICC. In contrast, 16.7% of cases of AML, not otherwise specified in the WHO-4 were reclassified into AML with mutated TP53, and 36.7% were reclassified into AML with myelodysplasia-related gene mutations or cytogenetic abnormalities per the ICC. Meanwhile, the ELN2017 and ELN2022 showed no difference in concordance indexes in multivariate Cox regression analysis for progression-free and overall survival. The superiority of the ELN2022 over the ELN2017 could not be confirmed in our single-center retrospective study, and further investigation including multicenter prospective studies is needed.

Background: HIV induced endothelial dysfunction (ED) contributes to cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women with HIV (WWH). Although psychosocial stress has been implicated in the development of CVD in HIV, its impact on ED in WWH remains unknown.
Objectives: The authors hypothesized that posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and HIV interact to contribute to ED in WWH.

Background: Adolescents and young adults (AYA) with cystic fibrosis (CF) are at risk for deviating from their daily treatment regimen due to significant time burden, complicated daily therapies, and life stressors. Developing patient-centric, effective, engaging, and practical behavioral interventions is vital to help sustain therapeutically meaningful self-management.
Objective: This study aimed to devise and refine a patient-centered telecoaching intervention to foster self-management in AYA with CF using a combination of intervention development approaches, including an evidence- and theory-based approach (ie, applying existing theories and research evidence for behavior change) and a target population-centered approach (ie, intervention refinement based on the perspectives and actions of those individuals who will use it).

Individuals with severe mental illness (SMI) have a shorter life expectancy compared to the general population, largely due to cardiovascular disease (CVD). In this report from the Fixed Dose Intervention Trial of New England Enhancing Survival in SMI Patients (FITNESS), we examined baseline CVD risk factors and their treatment in patients with SMI and second generation antipsychotic (SGA) use. FITNESS enrolled 204 participants with SMI and SGA use, but without documented history of CVD or diabetes mellitus, from several clinics in the Boston, Massachusetts, area between April 29, 2015, and September 26, 2019.

Introduction: LDL-cholesterol greater than 190 mg/dL indicates severe hypercholesterolemia (HS) of monogenic and/or polygenic origin. Genetic risk scores (GRS) evaluate potential polygenic causes.
Objective: we applied a GRS of 6-SNP (GRS-6) in HS individuals.
