Article Synopsis
- * Three new recurring KMT2A-rearranged groups were identified, and a significant variation in 5-year event-free survival rates was observed across 13 different groups, highlighting the impact of genetic factors on patient outcomes.
- * The research suggests incorporating five specific adverse-risk KMT2A fusions into current risk stratification models and calls for further studies to confirm the associations
Measurable Residual Disease and Fusion Partner Independently Predict Survival and Relapse Risk in Childhood -Rearranged Acute Myeloid Leukemia: A Study by the International Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster Study Group.
J Clin Oncol
June 2023
Princess Máxima Center for Pediatric Oncology, Utrecht, the Netherlands.
Article Synopsis
- A study by the I-BFM-SG on childhood rearranged acute myeloid leukemia (AML) revealed that the type of fusion partner plays a significant role in prognosis, and it also explored the effectiveness of flow cytometry-based measurable residual disease (flow-MRD) and allogeneic stem-cell transplantation (allo-SCT) in improving outcomes during first complete remission.
- The research involved 1,130 children diagnosed with rearranged AML, who were categorized into high-risk and non-high-risk groups based on their fusion partners, and it focused on the relationship between flow-MRD levels and long-term survival rates.
- Results showed that the high-risk group had significantly worse event-free survival, cumulative incidence of relapse, and overall survival
Sleep medicine catalogue of knowledge and skills - Revision.
J Sleep Res
June 2021
University of Parma, Parma, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- The 'catalogue of knowledge and skills' for sleep medicine serves as a framework for developing a curriculum, textbook, and examination in the field.
- Originally created by the European Sleep Research Society in 2014, the catalogue has been updated to reflect changes in sleep disorder classifications, scoring manuals, and advances in sleep science.
- The revised catalogue highlights a shift in sleep medicine's importance across various medical specialties, emphasizing the need for education and evaluation of sleep disorders within disciplines like cardiology, psychiatry, and pediatrics.
Changes in Weight and Body Composition Among Women With Breast Cancer During and After Adjuvant Treatment: A Prospective Follow-up Study.

September 2017
Author Affiliations: Department of Oncology, Aalborg University Hospital, Denmark (Ms Pedersen and Drs Carus and Falkmer); Unit of Clincal Biostatistics and Bioinformatics, Aalborg University Hospital, and Department of Clinical Medicine, Aalborg University, Denmark (Ms Bendtsen); Clinical Nursing research Unit, Aalborg University Hospital, Denmark (Dr Groenkjaer); Institute of Public Health, Section of Nursing, Aarhus University, Denmark, and University College Diakonova, Oslo, Norway (Dr Delmar); and Clinical Nutrition Unit, Salgrenska University Hospital, Goethenburg, Sweden (Dr Boseaus).
Background: Antineoplastic adjuvant treatment for breast cancer can cause changes in women's weight and body composition and influence their general health and survival.
Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the extent and patterns of change in weight and body composition after current standard adjuvant antineoplastic treatment for breast cancer.
Methods: Data on weight and body composition from 95 women with breast cancer Stage I to III were obtained during 18 months on a bioelectric impedance analyzer.
The vulvar skin microenvironment: influence of different panty liners on temperature, pH and microflora.
Acta Derm Venereol
November 2004
Department of Dermatology, Salgrenska University Hospital, Göteborg, Sweden.
Article Synopsis
- The study confirmed that vapour-impermeable panty liners can raise skin temperature and disrupt the skin environment more than vapour-permeable ones.
- Results showed that the skin temperature of women using vapour-impermeable liners was about 1.1 degrees Celsius higher compared to those not using any liners.
- Overall, while vapour-permeable liners maintained skin conditions similar to no liner use, vapour-impermeable liners led to slightly higher microorganism densities without posing significant microbial risks for healthy women.
Jejunal and gastric mucosal perfusion versus splanchnic blood flow and metabolism: an observational study on postcardiac surgical patients.
Crit Care Med
November 2000
Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care, Salgrenska University Hospital, Göteborg, Sweden.
Objectives: To evaluate the association between changes in total splanchnic and mucosal perfusion, assessed either by gastric tonometry or jejunal laser Doppler flowmetry in postcardiac surgical patients.
Design: A prospective, observational study.
Settings: A general intensive care unit in a tertiary care center.
Timing of radiotherapy and chemotherapy following breast-conserving surgery for patients with node-positive breast cancer. International Breast Cancer Study Group.
Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys
July 1996
Department of General Oncology, Salgrenska University Hospital, Gothenborg, Sweden.
Purpose: A controversy exists regarding whether it is safe to delay radiation therapy until the completion of chemotherapy following breast-conserving surgery for patients with node-positive breast cancer. Within the context of two concurrent randomized clinical trials we had the opportunity to evaluate outcomes for patients who received breast irradiation after completing different durations of chemotherapy.
Methods And Materials: From July 1986 to April 1993 the International Breast Cancer Study Group (IBCSG) Trial VI randomly assigned 1554 pre/perimenopausal node-positive breast cancer patients to receive cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, and 5-fluorouracil (CMF) for either three consecutive courses on months 1-3, or six consecutive courses on months 1-6, both with or without reintroduction CMF.
