Article Abstract
The present study describes the case of an 18-year-old adolescent male exhibiting acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), complicated by the onset of the symptom of sacroiliitis mimicking spondyloarthritis. Atypical features including an enlarged spleen, poor effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug therapy, low levels of hemoglobin, a low platelet count, a low neutrophil count and increased levels of monocytes, indicated the possibility of hematological malignancy. Bone marrow examination confirmed the diagnosis of ALL. The patient received chemotherapy and the symptoms were dramatically relieved. To the best of our knowledge, the current study reports the second published case of a patient with ALL presenting with sacroiliitis. Sacroiliitis as an onset manifestation of ALL may result in misdiagnosis, therefore, a differential diagnosis is essential when atypical features are present.

Fulminant myocarditis: outcome predictors in an international cohort study.
Eur Heart J
September 2025
Medizinische Klinik und Poliklinik II, Universitätsklinikum Bonn, Venusberg-Campus 1, Bonn 53127, Germany.
Background And Aims: Fulminant myocarditis (FM) is a complex clinical syndrome characterized by acute myocardial inflammation and cardiogenic shock. Evidence on long-term outcomes, mortality risk factors, and targeted treatment options remains limited.
Methods: This retrospective analysis included consecutive adult patients admitted for FM between January 2012 and November 2022 at 26 European tertiary centres.
Successful remission induction therapy with azacitidine and venetoclax for a treatment-naive elderly patient with ETP/myeloid mixed-phenotype acute leukemia: a case report.

Department Hematopathology, Shenzhen Hospital of Southern Medical University, Shenzhen, China.
Background: Mixed-phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL) is a rare acute leukemia for which data are currently not available to guide therapy. It has a poor outcome, particularly in elderly patients.
Case Presentation: We report the successful use of venetoclax/azacitidine as treatment for a treatment-naive elderly patient with early T-cell precursor (ETP)/myeloid MPAL.
Association Between the Hemoglobin, Albumin, Lymphocyte, and Platelet (HALP) Score and Adverse Outcomes in Critically Ill Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Retrospective Study and Machine Learning Analysis.
Rev Cardiovasc Med
August 2025
Department of Cardiology, Xiamen Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, 361015 Xiamen, Fujian, China.
Background: The hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte, and platelet (HALP) score represents a meaningful predictor in many cardiovascular diseases. However, the predictive utility of this score for the outcome of patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has yet to be fully elucidated.
Methods: Information from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-IV v3.
A Novel CART-Driven Decision Tree Combining NLR and CRP for Early Prognostication of Severe Acute Pancreatitis: A Prospective Vietnamese Cohort Study.

Department of Internal Medicine, School of Medicine, University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Cho Minh City, Vietnam.
Background: Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a life-threatening condition requiring early risk stratification. While the Bedside Index for Severity in Acute Pancreatitis (BISAP) is widely used, its reliance on complex parameters limits its applicability in resource-constrained settings. This study introduces a decision tree model based on Classification and Regression Tree (CART) analysis, utilizing Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and C-reactive Protein (CRP), as a simpler alternative for early SAP prediction.

Background: Following SARS-CoV-2 infection, ~10-35% of COVID-19 patients experience long COVID (LC), in which debilitating symptoms persist for at least three months. Elucidating biologic underpinnings of LC could identify therapeutic opportunities.
Methods: We utilized machine learning methods on biologic analytes provided over 12-months after hospital discharge from >500 COVID-19 patients in the IMPACC cohort to identify a multi-omics "recovery factor", trained on patient-reported physical function survey scores.
