Impact of underlying disease and total body irradiation on the incidence of graft-versus-host disease after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation.
Transplant Cell Ther

University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada; Alberta Health Services, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Background: Multiple factors have been described to influence the risk of acute or chronic graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD or cGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), including underlying chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and high-dose total body irradiation (TBI). However, the impact of the underlying disease or low-dose TBI on the risk of GVHD in the modern era has not been determined.
Objective: To determine risk factors for GVHD in the modern era in the setting of antithymocyte globulin (ATG)-based GVHD prophylaxis.
Glucarpidase for Treatment of High-Dose Methotrexate Toxicity.
Blood
January 2025
Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, United States.
High-dose methotrexate (MTX) results in high rates of acute kidney injury (AKI), neutropenia, and hepatotoxicity. Glucarpidase is a recombinant enzyme that cleaves MTX, but clinical data supporting its use are scarce. We examined the association between glucarpidase administration and outcomes in adults with MTX-AKI from 28 cancer centers across the U.

Ophthalmology, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre (UKMMC), Kuala Lumpur, MYS.
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a subtype of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) that commonly requires aggressive immunosuppression to achieve remission. We present a case of a young Malay lady with recurrent episodes of ANCA-positive nodular anterior scleritis who responded poorly to topical and systemic corticosteroids and relapsed while on methotrexate. A year later, she had epistaxis, and a sino-nasal biopsy confirmed granulomatous vasculitis.
