Long-term neurocognitive and quality of life outcomes in survivors of pediatric hematopoietic cell transplant
ConclusionsAlthough long-term survivors of pediatric HCT reported higher rates of impairment in specific neurocognitive domains, cognitive quality of life was perceived as similar to the general population. Subsets of survivors with certain co-morbidities had substantially worse neurocognitive outcomes.Implications for Cancer SurvivorsWhile the long-term impact of pediatric HCT can include neurocognitive deficits, survivors report average cognitive quality of life.

Molecules, Vol. 26, Pages 3943: CD47 in the Brain and Neurodegeneration: An Update on the Role in Neuroinflammatory Pathways
in Sahebkar CD47 is a receptor belonging to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily and broadly expressed on cell membranes. Through interactions with ligands such as SIRPα, TSP-1, integrins, and SH2-domain bearing protein tyrosine phosphatase substrate-1 (SHPS-1), CD47 regulates numerous functions like cell adhesion, proliferation, apoptosis, migration, homeostasis, and the immune system. In this aspect, previous research has shown that CD47 modulates phagocytosis via macrophages, the transmigration of neutrophils, and the activation of T-cells, dendritic cells, and B-cells. Moreover, several studies have reported the in...

The Clinical Impact of Methotrexate-Induced Stroke-Like Neurotoxicity in Paediatric Departments: An Italian Multi-Centre Case-Series
ConclusionsSLS is a rare, well-characterized complication of MTX administration. Despite the small sample, we have been able to confirm some of the previous findings in literature. We also identified a linear correlation between age and severity of the disease, which could improve the future clinical management.

CLL-390 Persistence and Time to Next Treatment With Ibrutinib Treatment in Patients With Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma Including Patients at High Risk for Atrial Fibrillation or Stroke: A Real-World Study
Context: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a recognized adverse consequence associated with all Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors used to treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL); however, real-world time to discontinuation (TTD) and time to next treatment (TTNT) of CLL/SLL patients with a high baseline AF risk remain unknown. Objective: To describe TTNT and TTD for CLL/SLL patients who initiated a first-line (1L) or second-or-later-line (2L+) therapy with ibrutinib or other regimens, in all patients and for subsets of patients with high baseline risk of AF/AF-related events.
