We want to test the most up-to-date age-group-specific survival differences in five hematological malignancies, Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), multiple myeloma (MM), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myeloproliferative diseases (MPD) in Sweden (SE) and compared these to Denmark, Finland and Norway. For analysis we apply a recently published metric for comparing and visualizing age-group-specific relative survival differences using data from the NORDCAN database between 1972 and 2021. Periodic changes in age-related deviation in SE survival showed increasing differences for AML and MM while for the other HMs the differences declined in the course of time. Country-specific differences were observed, for Finnish male CLL and female MPD deviations were larger than those for the other countries, both of which were explained by the deviant survival of the oldest patients. Age-related deviations in 5-year survival increased for AML and MM for which survival improvements have been achieved through intense treatment regimens but these are not offered to old patients because of risk of complications. Paradoxically, improving overall survival in AML and MM has contributed to the widening of the age gaps. For the remaining HMs, age-related deviations declined with time as even old patients benefitted from the survival improvements; most notably female MPD and CLL patients had hardly any age gaps. Age disparities are an issue in hematological malignancies, and an intense search for novel treatments also includes old patients with an example of success as a novel drug venetoclax.</p>","PeriodicalId":8068,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Hematology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143565856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

SAs are categorized into acquired and congenital forms. Acquired, secondary, and clonal, SA is rare in pediatric populations. Congenital SA (CSA) is classified into syndromic and non-syndromic forms. Herein, we describe three cases of pediatric patients with SA. The diagnosis of SA was based on the presence of type 3 sideroblasts on BM aspirate smear (greater than 15%) and genetic tests. In the first case, the diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome with ring sideroblasts (MDS-RS) with somatic SF3B1 mutation was made at the age of 11 years. A whole exome sequencing did not reveal any germinal predisposition for MDS. A wait-and-see strategy was adopted. After one year- of follow-up, no blood transfusion was needed and no further cytopenia occurred. The two other children had presented anemia at an early age and were diagnosed with CSA. The first case was a girl with SCL25A38 gene mutation. For the second one, the diagnosis of aminolevulinic acid synthase 2 deficiency was considered the most plausible given the family history and the favourable response to pyridoxine. Iron overload occurred in both patients with CSA, requiring chelation therapy. In conclusion, Perls' stain remains a valuable tool for guiding the diagnosis of unexplained anemia in pediatric patients. Genetic testing is crucial for the characterization of congenital sideroblastic anemias. The incidence of myeloid neoplasms with ring sideroblasts is exceptional in children, and the long-term prognosis remains undefined.</p>","PeriodicalId":8068,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Hematology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143555436","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our study was conducted using a retrospective cohort from the National Inpatient Sample (NIS), spanning 5 years from 2016 to 2020. Patients were carefully divided into two cohorts for comparison: those admitted with ACS and a history of asthma and those with ACS without a history of asthma. The primary endpoint was all-cause inpatient mortality, and we built a robust multivariate regression model adjusting for confounders. We also thoroughly examined secondary endpoints, including a comparison of length of stay (LOS), hospital, transfusion rates, mechanical ventilation (MV) rates, Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT), and rates of hemodialysis (HD) for acute kidney injury (AKI). Our analysis of LOS and total cost was conducted using a multivariate linear regression model adjusted for confounders, ensuring the thoroughness and validity of our results. Additionally, genotypes, demographics, and common comorbidities were described. Categorical variables required Chi-square (X2), and continuous variables required a Student t-test for hypothesis testing. A two-tailed P-value of &lt; 0.05 was considered statistically significant. We utilized the National Inpatient Database (NIS). A total of 26,280 hospitalizations met the inclusion criteria:5,685 had ACS with a history of asthma, and 20,622 without ACS. Patients with ACS and Asthma were younger (mean age, 28 years vs. 32 years; p &lt; 0.001), and females represented a higher proportion (53.03% vs. 47.56%; p = 0.940). Patients admitted with ACS and Asthma did not have higher odds of dying than those admitted with ACS without asthma (p = 0.176). The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) was the only predictor of mortality. (aOR 1.52; p &lt; 0.001). ACS with Asthma was a predictive factor for LOS (coefficient -0.65; p = 0.009). Conversely, female patients had a higher likelihood of experiencing a more extended hospital stay (coefficient, 0.61; p = 0.001). Additionally, ACS with Asthma significantly affected the total cost (coefficient: -15,201; p &lt; 0.001), resulting in a lower cost than ACS patients without asthma. Finally, patients with ACS with Asthma did not have higher rates of transfusions, MV, CRRT, or HD due to AKI than those without asthma. Asthma did not increase the risk of in-hospital mortality in this large retrospective cohort study of patients admitted for Acute Chest Syndrome (ACS). While patients with ACS and a history of asthma were younger and had a lower total cost of care, their length of stay was shorter, and they did not experience higher rates of transfusion, mechanical ventilation, or acute kidney injury requiring dialysis.

Parameters analyzed include lymphocyte count (L), platelet count (PLT), total protein (TP), albumin (ALB), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT). Machine learning (ML) approaches, including LASSO, random forest (RF), and support vector machine (SVM), were employed alongside meta-analysis and sensitivity analysis to validate the prognostic potential of these indicators. A retrospective analysis of 151 HLH patients was conducted to identify key predictive variables. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, Kaplan-Meier (K-M) survival curves, and Cox regression analysis were used to evaluate the predictive capabilities of these parameters. ML algorithms determined optimal cut-off values to classify patients into high-risk and low-risk groups. A survival nomogram and risk scoring system were developed to provide individualized prognostic assessments. Meta-analysis aggregated data from existing literature to further validate differences in PLT, ALB, and APTT between deceased and surviving patients. Older age, low L, low PLT, low ALB, elevated BUN, and prolonged APTT were strongly associated with higher 30-day mortality risk in HLH patients. Six key indicators-TP, L, APTT, BUN, ALB, and PLT-were identified as critical predictors. ROC and K-M survival analyses highlighted the significance of these parameters. The survival nomogram and risk scoring system demonstrated high accuracy in predicting individualized mortality risk. Meta-analysis confirmed significant differences in PLT, ALB, and APTT between deceased and surviving patients, reinforcing the clinical value of these indicators. This study underscores the prognostic importance of specific clinical and biochemical parameters in predicting 30-day mortality in HLH patients.
