Outcome and prognostic indicators of patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplants admitted to the intensive care unit.

The prognosis of patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCTs) who require admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) has been regarded as extremely poor. We sought to re-evaluate recent outcomes and predictive factors in a retrospective cohort study. Among the 605 adult patients that received an HSCT between 2001 and 2006, 154 required admission to the ICU. Of these, 47% were discharged from the ICU, 36% were discharged from the hospital, and 19% survived 6 months. Allogeneic transplant, mechanical ventilation, vasopressor-use, and neutropenia were each associated with increased m

Patients' and caregivers' perspectives on preparedness for and experience with chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy.

BackgroundChimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cell therapy has improved survival, yet its toxic profile may impact on survivors' well-being. We examined patients' and caregivers' perspectives on the most common, severe, and distressing side effects across recovery (ie, first 60 days) and survivorship (ie, 60 days and onwards) and explored their perspectives on the education received to prepare for CAR-T.Materials and methodsWe conducted semi-structured interviews with patients and caregivers addressing (1) how they prepared for CAR-T, (2) the side effects experienced during the first-year post

Treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) is complex; however, with equal access to care, clinical outcomes for Black patients match those in other patient groups. To reveal and begin to address clinical practice barriers to equitable, patient-centered MM care, this quality improvement (QI) initiative assessed patient electronic medical records (EMRs) and surveyed patients and providers at two large hospital systems and four community-based practices. For the educational intervention, providers participated in feedback-focused grand rounds sessions to reflect on system barriers and develop action pla

Treatment of Psoriasis with Secukinumab in Challenging Patient Scenarios: A Review of the Available Evidence.

Psoriasis (PsO) is a common, systemic, chronic, inflammatory disease characterized by key clinical symptoms, including itching, pain, and scaling. PsO is associated with a high prevalence of comorbidities, including other autoimmune diseases and malignancies. Furthermore, special populations, such as pregnant, pediatric, and elderly patients, and those with erythrodermic PsO, are challenging to treat and require tightly monitored disease and treatment management. Because certain populations have demographic or clinical characteristics that can affect the presentation of PsO and complicate trea

Exploring First Responders' Use and Perceptions on Continuous Health and Environmental Monitoring.

First responders lose their lives in the line of duty each year, and many of these deaths result from strenuous physical exertion and exposure to harmful environmental agents. Continuous health monitoring may detect diseases and alert the first responder when vital signs are reaching critical levels. However, continuous monitoring must be acceptable to first responders. The purpose of this study was to discover first responders' current use of wearable technology, their perceptions of what health and environmental indicators should be monitored, and who should be permitted to monitor them. The

Systemic AL amyloidosis: current approach and future direction.

Systemic Light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a monoclonal plasma cell proliferative disorder characterized by deposition of amyloidogenic monoclonal light chain fragments causing organ dysfunction. It is a fatal disease and if not diagnosed and treated early can lead to organ failure and potentially death. The renal system along with the cardiovascular system are the most common organs involved but other organs such as gut and liver can be involved as well. The initial evaluation of patients requires confirming the diagnosis with tissue biopsy and staining with Congo red followed by confirmatory t

Hematologic malignancies magnify the effect of body mass index on insulin resistance in cancer survivors.

Cancer survivors are at increased risk of type 2 diabetes, which usually develops from obesity and insulin resistance. Whether diabetes susceptibility is due to shared risk factors for cancer and insulin resistance or directly related to cancer and its treatment is unknown. We investigated effect modification between malignancy and body mass index (BMI) as determinants of insulin sensitivity in patients with hematologic malignancies and controls without cancer. In a cross-sectional study of 43 individuals without diabetes (20 patients with treated hematologic malignancies; 23 controls without

Может ли дополнение антиоксидантами улучшить когнитивные функции у пациентов с множественным склерозом? Обзор литературы.

Множественный склероз (MS) — хроническое нервно-воспалительное и нейродегенеративное заболевание центральной нервной системы (CNS), имеющее сложную и многофакторную патофизиологию. Хотя эти механизмы еще не полностью прояснились, установлено, что окислительный стресс (ОС) играет ключевую роль в вождении нейродегенерации в MS. Эти патологические механизмы способствуют возникновению широкого круга симптомов, включая моторные и сенсорные расстройства, а также когнитивное расстройство. Дефекты когнитивных функций могут создавать для этих пациентов тяжелое бремя и существенно влиять на качество их

Outcome Prediction of Hematologic Malignancy in Critically Sick People.

People with hematologic malignancies (HM) frequently postulate intensive care unit (ICU) hospitalization due to organ damage caused by the disease process or treatment-related consequences. This study is aimed at looking at mortality and sign factors in adult patients with hematologic malignancy (HM) who have been hospitalized in the ICU. Death was one quality indicator; researchers used a machine learning approach to find determinants of death. As per the study, there have been 206 patients hospitalized in the ICU (mean age: 51.3 ± 13.6 years; 60% male). The average length of stay was three d
