Better pre-transplant treatment options for TP53-mutated MDS: cytoreductive or non-cytoreductive therapy?

Bone Marrow Transplant

December 2024

Bone Marrow Transplantation Center of The First Affiliated Hospital & Liangzhu Laboratory, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou, China.

Article Synopsis
  • * A study analyzed 284 MDS patients, finding no significant survival benefits from cytoreductive treatment before HSCT compared to those receiving best supportive care (BSC).
  • * Ultimately, whether patients underwent cytoreduction or BSC, their post-transplant outcomes were similar, indicating that this treatment approach does not improve prognosis for TP53-mutated MDS patients.

Article Synopsis
  • Primary osteoporosis is a significant health concern that involves complex mechanisms, with ferroptosis emerging as a key area of research connecting its pathogenesis.
  • The study utilized a model of ovariectomized rats to investigate the relationship between ferroptosis and primary osteoporosis through TMT proteomics and bioinformatics, identifying significant protein expression changes in bone tissues.
  • Results showed that lipid metabolism disruptions and oxidative stress linked to iron metabolism may play a crucial role in the development of osteoporosis, highlighting potential target genes for further research.

Objective: The aim of this study was to retrospectively analyze the clinical efficacy of the direct anterior approach (DAA) vs. posterolateral approach (PLA) in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA).

Patients And Methods: A total of 382 patients who underwent primary THA in our hospital from March 2016 to March 2021 were identified as research subjects, with 183 patients in the DAA group and 199 in the PLA group.

Alterations in the gut microbiota of AIDS patients with pneumocystis pneumonia and correlations with the lung microbiota.

Front Cell Infect Microbiol

November 2022

Department of Microbiology and Immunology, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Xi'an Jiaotong University, Xi'an, China.

Background: Due to the inability to be cultured , the biological characteristics and pathogenicity of remain unclear. Intestinal microflora disorder is related to the occurrence and development of various pulmonary diseases. This work explores the pathogenesis of pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) in acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients from a microbiome perspective, to provide better strategies for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of PCP.

The use of Bcl-2 inhibitor Venetoclax (VEN) combined with hypomethylating agents or chemotherapy has shown efficacy in treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML) as frontline treatment and for relapse, allowing more patients to bridge to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). However, the influence of VEN-based therapy on the prognosis of subsequent allogeneic HSCT remains unknown. We retrospectively collected data from patients who proceeded to allo-HSCT between November 2018 and November 2020 after VEN-based therapy at five transplant centers in Zhejiang Province, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Patients with bony ankylosed knees (BA-group) experienced significantly lower pain levels compared to those with non-bony ankylosed knees (Not-BA-group), as indicated by their visual analogue scale (VAS) scores.
  • The study involved collecting synovial samples during total knee arthroplasty from 52 end-stage haemophilic arthropathy cases, analyzing both pain sensation and histopathological differences.
  • Histopathological analysis revealed that Not-BA-group showed increased synovial thickness and higher expression levels of inflammatory markers compared to the BA-group, suggesting a link between joint stiffness and reduced pain perception.

Article Synopsis
  • Haemophilic arthropathy (HA) is a common complication in hemophilia patients, triggered by bleeding into the joints and resulting in severe pain and reduced quality of life.
  • Factor replacement therapy helps prevent joint bleeding in children, but many in developing countries still face HA due to limited access to treatment.
  • The condition's complex pathology involves inflammation, synovitis, and damage to bones and cartilage, highlighting the need for further research to understand and address these mechanisms.

[Risk factors analysis for steroid-resistant acute graft versus host disease after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation].

Zhonghua Xue Ye Xue Za Zhi

February 2020

Peking University People's Hospital, Peking University Institute of Hematology, National Clinical Research Center for Hematologic Disease, Beijing Key Laboratory of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation, Beijing 100044, China.

To analyze the risk factors of steroid resistant acute graft- versus-host disease (aGVHD) after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) . The clinical data of adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) /Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who developed aGVHD after haplo-HSCT in Peking University Institute of Hematology from January 1st, 2010 to December 31st, 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. A total of 85 patients were enrolled in the study, including 55 males and 30 females, with a median age of 30 (19-67) years.
