Outpatients with haematological cancer may be in contact with the treatment centre over long periods and could be particularly affected. This study aimed to identify haematological cancer patients' perceptions of supportive design elements in the hospital they attended and associations with self-reported mood or well-being. Outpatients from three large metropolitan hospitals in Australia were mailed a self-report questionnaire and responded to statements about the treatment centr

What Cardiologists Should Know About Amyloidosis.

Background: Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is an increasingly recognized but historically underdiagnosed cause of restrictive cardiomyopathy and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). It results from the extracellular deposition of misfolded protein fibrils, most commonly transthyretin (ATTR) or immunoglobulin light chains (AL), leading to progressive myocardial dysfunction and multi-organ involvement. Objective: This review provides a comprehensive, cardiology-centered overview of cardiac amyloidosis, with an emphasis on early recognition, diagnostic strategies, subtype differentia

Sensitivity of multi-parametric quantitative magnetic resonance imaging for multiple sclerosis pathology.

BACKGROUND: In recent years, quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) made progress towards clinical applicability mainly through advances in acceleration techniques. In patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), objective quantitative MRI-based characterization of subtle pathological alterations in lesions, perilesion (PL), as well as normal-appearing (NA) white matter (NAWM) and grey matter (NAGM) would revolutionize clinical assessment. While numerous quantitative techniques have been applied in studies of MS patients, their diagnostic significance especially for individual patients with r

How histone modifications influence cellular radiosensitivity: Pharmaceutically targeting epigenetic regulators as a promising avenue to overcome radioresistance.

Cancer remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Radiotherapy (RT), a cornerstone of oncological treatment for over a century, has achieved great success in various cancers. However, radioresistance remains the primary factor leading to the failure of radiotherapy. Histone modifications in cancer cells are known to play a pivotal role in regulating radiosensitivity by modulating chromatin structure, either by loosening or tightening it. Here, we provide a comprehensive summary of the link between aberrant histone modifications and radiation resistance across various cancer and normal t

Diagnosis and treatment of cardiac amyloidosis: an interdisciplinary consensus statement.

The prevalence and significance of cardiac amyloidosis have been considerably underestimated in the past; however, the number of patients diagnosed with cardiac amyloidosis has increased significantly recently due to growing awareness of the disease, improved diagnostic capabilities and demographic trends. Specific therapies that improve patient prognosis have become available for certain types of cardiac amyloidosis. Thus, the earliest possible referral of patients with suspicion of cardiac amyloidosis to an experienced center is crucial to ensure rapid diagnosis, early initiation of treatmen

Targeted Drug Delivery and Theranostic Strategies in Malignant Lymphomas.

Malignant lymphomas represent the most common type of hematologic malignancies. The first clinically approved TDD modalities in lymphoma patients were anti-CD20 radioimmunoconjugates (RIT) 131I-tositumomab and 90Y-ibritumomab-tiuxetan. The later clinical success of the first approved antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) for the treatment of lymphomas, anti-CD30 brentuximab vedotin, paved the path for the preclinical development and clinical testing of several other ADCs, including polatuzumab vedotin and loncastuximab tesirine. Other modalities of TDD are based on new formulations of "old" cytostatic

Cardiac amyloidosis and aortic stenosis: a state-of-the-art review.

Cardiac amyloidosis is caused by the extracellular deposition of amyloid fibrils in the heart, involving not only the myocardium but also any cardiovascular structure. Indeed, this progressive infiltrative disease also involves the cardiac valves and, specifically, shows a high prevalence with aortic stenosis. Misfolded protein infiltration in the aortic valve leads to tissue damage resulting in the onset or worsening of valve stenosis. Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis and aortic stenosis coexist in patients > 65 years in about 4-16% of cases, especially in those undergoing transcatheter aort

Серые вопросы при множественном склерозе: когнитивное обесценение и структурное МРТ

Множественный склероз (MS) — иммунное заболевание, затрагивающее центральную нервную систему (CNS). Хотя MS классически считается заболеванием белого вещества (WM), участие серых веществ (GM) в патогенном процессе было подтверждено патологическими исследованиями и МРТ. Обесценение таких когнитивных областей, как память, скорость умственной обработки, внимание и исполнительная функция, может происходить с ранней стадии заболевания и, как правило, усугубляться с течением времени, несмотря на устойчивые физические симптомы. Демиелинация WM имеет умеренную корреляцию с CI, что говорит о том, что,
