... group at 1-year (36.4% vs. 62.9%, p < 0.001) and 2-year (40.0% vs. 65.7%, p < 0.001) post-HSCT. The mortality due to GVHD was higher in the control (18.5%) than the ATG group (4.3%; p = 0.024). The severe GVHD-relapse-free survival was higher in the ATG group (36.4%) than the control (12.9%; p...

... electronic health record (EHR)-derived de-identified database was utilized that included patients diagnosed with CLL from 2013 to 2022 who received systemic therapy for their disease. Use of cBTKi therapy, time to next treatment or death (TTNT-D), and overall survival (OS) were compared by race in unadjusted...

... pairs of cases were successfully identified for the final analysis. We assessed response rates, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and factors affecting response and survival. Results: Haematological improvement (HI) was observed in 35 (70%) patients treated with CSA and in 25 (50...

..., depression was correlated with shorter accumulating event-free survival ( p = 0.012) and overall survival ( p = 0.041) in AML patients, whereas anxiety was not. Conclusions: Anxiety and depression are prevalent, among which depression is associated with poor survival profile, but anxiety is not; moreover...

... and multivariable analysis adjusting for age, sex, cytogenetics and molecular testing, and performance status. There was no significant difference in overall survival by distance from center on univariate and multivariable analysis. Conclusion: In conclusion, geographic distance from treatment center does...

... Prognostic Index (IPI) ( p < 0.001), and older age ( p = 0.060). High-intermediate/high-risk IPI, high proportion of CD3 + CD4 + Th cells, and extranodal site ≥2 correlated with unfavorable prognostic factors for survival. High proportion of Th cells was associated with fewer cytotoxic T cells and NK...

... of the underlying clonal disease as evaluated by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization even have predictive value, enabling an appropriate treatment selection. Derived from the most frequently involved organs in AL, heart and kidney, this review focuses on overall survival and renal survival...

...Tali Siegal; Osnat Bairey Primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma is an aggressive brain tumor sensitive to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Its incidence has increased in the elderly, and they account for the majority of patients. The median survival of patients older than 70 years did...

... (HD) have no proven survival benefit. Methods: We studied survival differences among patients with HD after auto-HCT whose recurrences were detected on clinical history and exam, versus those detected on routine surveillance scan. Results: Among the 98 patients with HD that underwent auto-HCT from...

...). The purpose of this study is to provide a review and a meta-analysis of the current literature regarding the prognostic value of MVD in the overall survival (OS) of MM patients. Methods: MEDLINE was screened for studies evaluating the OS of MM patients with regard to their MVD count in BM trephine. The pooled...

Methods: A retrospective study...

... included in this meta-analysis, with a total of 2,478 patients accrued. There were 8 studies providing data on single nucleotide polymorphism at position 309 (SNP309) and risk of leukemia and 7 studies providing data on SNP309 and overall survival. Our analysis showed that patients having G/G mutations had...

... (49%) had noncardiac amyloidosis (NCA). The median follow-up time was 12.7 months (0.3-90.8), and 38 (60%) patients died during follow-up. The median overall survival (OS) was 29 months (95% CI 12.1-57.2) and the OS was not significantly lower for patients with CA compared to NCA (log-rank = 0.21...

... Scoring System (IPSS). We conducted a retrospective study of 173 adult MDS patients who had not received disease-altering treatment. Using the Cox hazard method, we found the IPSS-R to be a significant predictor of survival (p < 0.001, hazard ratio, HR = 1.82, 95% confidence interval, CI 1.57-2.12...

.... Contrast-enhanced 18 F-FDG PET/CT scans were performed before and after 1 month of RIT. Tumor sizes and maximum standardized uptake values (SUV max ) of scans were measured. Results: Four of the 24 patients survived. High SUV max in a pretreatment scan was found to be related to poorer overall survival (OS...

...Vilma Gabutti; Antonio Piga The improvement in survival and quality of life of iron-overloaded patients achieved by regular subcutaneous chelation has been extensively documented over the years. A review of the long-term results allows one to establish the following points: (1) with regular...

... the survival of β-thalassemia major and development of complications among patients with different parameters. Fifteen deaths were reported. The most common cause of death was heart failure (60%). Patients with a ferritin level of 3,000 ng/ml showed better survival than those with a level >3,000 ng/ml (p...

... months (9–300 months), the overall or event-free survival of EBV-negative patients was more favorable than that of EBV-positive patients, although the difference was not significant (p = 0.16 and p = 0.24, respectively).
