Article Abstract

Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment methods of patients with myeloid sarcoma(MS). Methods: The clinical data, laboratory examination, clinical pathology and treatment methods of 15 patients with MS treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College from June 2012 to January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.

Results: Among the 15 cases of MS, including eight males and seven females, the middle age of patients were 53(19 to 72). Among the 15 patients with MS, 4 showed solitary MS, while 11 showed secondary MS. Immunohistochemical results showed that MPO(12/15)、CD68(3/6)、Lys(3/3)、CD34(6/14)、TdT(0/9)、CD43(13/13)、CD117(6/10)、CD15(7/10)、CD3(1/15)、CD20(0/15). 6 of 13 patients were survival till follow-up date.The median overall survival (OS) time was 16 months (1-88 months).Conclusion: Myeloid sarcoma is rare and often secondary from acute myeloid leukemia(AML) and chronic myeogenous leukemia(CML). Isolated MS can easily be misdiagnosed as lymphoma. Treatment response should be evaluated in combination with bone marrow examination, PET/CT and other imagines.Systematic chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are the main method to treat MS.

Germline DDX41 mutations (DDX41mut) are identified in approximately 5% of myeloid malignancies with excess of blasts, representing a distinct MDS/AML entity. The disease is associated with better outcomes compared to DDX41 wild-type (DDX41WT), but patients who do not undergo allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) may experience late relapse. Due to the recent identification of DDX41mut, data on post-HSCT outcomes remain limited.

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.

Background: Nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) mutations represent one of the most frequent genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the prognostic significance of concurrent molecular abnormalities and clinical features in NPM1-mutated AML remains to be fully elucidated.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 73 adult AML patients with NPM1 mutations.

Background: This study aimed to identify the diagnostic and prognostic ability of serum miR-411-3p in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Methods: Blood samples were collected from 60 AML patients and 60 healthy controls to measure serum miR-411-3p and thereafter discuss its potential clinical value.

Results: Serum miR-411-3p was decreased in AML patients and was even lower in those with M4/M5 subtypes or high white blood cell count or adverse cytogenetic risk.

Background: Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is a rare and aggressive form of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, accounting for 1 - 2% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Diagnosis is challenging, and there is no established standard first-line treatment. This case report highlights a rare progression from AITL to therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (AML-pCT) following cytotoxic chemotherapy.
