Clinical use and safety of empiric anticoagulation during diagnostic work-up for deep vein thrombosis
Previous studies suggest the safety of empiric anticoagulation administered to patients with suspected deep vein thrombosis (DVT) before the work-up is completed. However, the safety of such practice has not been thoroughly studied in the primary care setting.

Sepsis and organ failure are the major risks for allogeneic transplant patients in the post- or late- engraftment phase admitted to the ICU
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) can lead to complications, depending on the period of the transplantation. Our study aimed to evaluate the outcome and prognostic parameters for the survival of patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) in the post- or late-engraftment phase.
Epidemiological landscape of early-onset multiple myeloma: global burden, temporal trends, cross-country inequality, and projections to 2045
Early-onset multiple myeloma (MM), defined as being diagnosed before the age of 50, has become an increasing global concern. However, a systematic examination of the global epidemiological landscape of early-onset MM is still lacking.
Expert consensus definition of treatment intolerance in chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase
Chronic myeloid leukemia in the chronic phase (CML-CP) has undergone therapeutic transformation with the advent of BCR::ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), improving 10-year survival rates from 20% to ∼90%. These outcomes place increasing importance on maintaining quality of life (QoL), which can be compromised by adverse events (AEs) that may lead to decreased adherence or sub-therapeutic doses. Currently, there is no standardized definition of treatment intolerance, and treatment switches are based on individual physician practices.
Regulated expression of miR-99a and miR-100 relates clinical and prognostic parameters of acute myeloid leukemia
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a genetic disorder caused by translocations or mutations that disrupt hematopoietic function and lead to malignant transformation. In recent years, microRNA-99a and miR-100 have been found to exhibit abnormal expression in solid tumors, but their roles in AML remain unclear. This study aims to investigate the expression levels of these two microRNAs in AML and their prognostic significance.

EWSR1 as a candidate prognostic indicator in acute myeloid leukemia
Ewing sarcoma breakpoint region 1(EWSR1) rearrangements have been repeatedly observed in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the clinical impact of EWSR1 expression is still unclear in AML. Therefore, we explored the prognostic significance of EWSR1 in AML.
Construction of a deep learning model and identification of BSG, PPARD, and SLC16A8 expression as potential indicators in the context of strategies for precision therapy to acute myeloid leukemia
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) exhibits significant heterogeneity and aggressiveness. This study aimed to investigate T cell heterogeneity in the AML tumor microenvironment using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and identify potential biomarkers for prognosis and precision therapy.
Effect of metabolic syndrome on prognosis in patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma
Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is characterized by significant heterogeneity and poor prognosis, with its high mortality rate remaining an unresolved challenge in clinical treatment. Recent studies have established metabolic syndrome (MetS) as a prognostic factor in various malignancies, yet its association with PTCL remains unexplored. This study aims to evaluate the impact of MetS on the prognosis of PTCL patients.
Fusion gene in a middle-aged female with rapid MDS to secondary AML progression: a case report
fusion has been identified in glioblastoma but has never been documented in hematologic malignancies. We document the first presentation of the fusion in a myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with rapid transition into secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML).
Pretreatment hemoglobin, myeloma subtype, and induction regimens as independent prognostic factors for survival after autologous stem cell transplantation in multiple myeloma: a retrospective cohort study
Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) is standard for eligible multiple myeloma (MM) patients, yet outcomes are heterogeneous. Besides established markers like cytogenetics and ISS, the independent prognostic value of pretreatment hemoglobin (Hb), myeloma subtype, and induction regimen requires clarification. This study aimed to assess these factors to improve risk stratification.
Protein and gene levels of DNAJC21 and RNF5 as drug targets for immune thrombocytopenia: optimized post-GWAS insights
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by antibody-mediated platelet (PLT) destruction. Its clinical manifestations are highly heterogeneous, and the unclear pathogenesis poses significant challenges for effective treatment. The limited efficacy of current therapies underscores the need for novel therapeutic targets.
The efficacy of varying doses of venetoclax combined with azacitidine for newly diagnosed adult acute myeloid leukemia in real-world settings: a single-center retrospective analysis
The combination of venetoclax and azacitidine shows significant efficacy in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (ndAML) patients. In specific contexts, low-dose venetoclax may be preferred to optimize patient tolerance.
Treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia chronic phase patients in third-line setting and beyond: recommendations from a Belgian expert panel in 2025
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have revolutionized the therapy of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in chronic phase, opening up the perspective of a normal life expectancy for most patients and of treatment-free remission for some of them. However, intolerance or resistance may necessitate treatment modifications.
Association between RDW and in-hospital mortality among multiple myeloma patients: a retrospective investigation of the MIMIC-IV database
Red cell distribution width (RDW) has been acknowledged for its prognostic importance in multiple myeloma (MM) patients. However, the connection between RDW and mortality rates among MM patients who are admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is still not clear.
NPM1 mediated up - regulation of CXCR4 might drive bortezomib resistance in multiple Myeloma
Bortezomib (BTZ) containing regimens induces significant antitumor response in multiple myeloma (MM) and are considered as the first-line treatment. However, resistance is still one of the unsolved problems. This study aims to explore the mechanism underlying BTZ resistance in MM.
The effectiveness and safety of various treatments for hemophilia in China: a literature review and evidence mapping
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of treatments for hemophilia in China through a literature review and evidence mapping, we systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, and CBM. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis in this evidence mapping and the review concluded on 21 April 2025. Results were compiled in tabular or graphical form. This review included 49 studies (two RCTs and 47 observational studies), involving 2274 patients, 41 articles focusing on hemophilia A, seven on hemophilia B, and one on both. The average (mean or median) age of subjects within the individual studies ranged from 5.77 to 34.6 years. This study revealed a decrease in both annualized bleeding rate (ABR) and annualized joint bleeding rate (AJBR) following prophylaxis treatment and immune tolerance induction (ITI) treatment. The reduction in target joint count post-treatment aligns with previous research indicating successful hemostasis in most people with hemophilia after alternative therapies; long-term follow-up studies consistently showed improved imaging scores at various dosage levels, indicating disease amelioration. Additionally, our findings suggest enhanced quality of life for people with hemophilia following treatment. Alternative therapies, encompassing prophylaxis therapy, on-demand treatment, and ITI therapy, demonstrated both efficacy and safety in the management of hemophilia among Chinese people with hemophilia.
Title: allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation for Myeloid sarcoma: a single-center experience
Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a rare extramedullary manifestation of myeloid neoplasms and usually has poorer outcomes than acute myeloid leukemia without extramedullary disease. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the most effective consolidation, but evidence on allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (allo-PBSCT), especially from haploidentical donors, is limited.
