Open Disparities Narrowing Among Patients Undergoing Blood Stem Cell Transplant, Roswell Park Study Reveals configuration options Historically, some patients with blood cancers have been less likely than others to receive stem cell transplant, also known as bone marrow transplant.
UAlbany researchers have identified a genetic mechanism that allows antimicrobial resistance to spread among Klebsiella pneumoniae — the third leading cause of blood infections globally.
Hunter doesn’t remember much from his time at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, but more than a decade later, one small moment has stuck with him in multiple ways.A blonde woman asks him: “She’d hold up an array of ChapSticks,” Hunter explains, “blueberry, strawberry, green apple, root beer float and chocolate.”
CLEVELAND: A clinical trial has demonstrated that the cancer drug pomalidomide is safe and effective in treating hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), a rare bleeding disorder that impacts more than 1 in 5,000 people worldwide.
Reporters are invited to this live event on Obesity Management and Kidney Health. Experts from the American Society of Nephrology will take questions on the inaugural Kidney Health Guidance on managing obesity in kidney disease patients
A significant number of multiple myeloma patients may have an inherited but previously unrecognized risk of developing the disease, a new study led by Roswell Park Chief of Clinical Genomics Kenan Onel, MD, PhD, reveals.
Doctors and pharmacists treating people with blood thinners can reduce the rate of inappropriate dosing — as well as blood clots and strokes that can result from it — using an electronic patient management system, a study suggests. Direct oral anticoagulants can be incorrectly prescribed up to 20% of the time.
Pessoas com uma superabundância de glóbulos brancos clonados, ou linfócitos, que prejudicam o seu sistema imunológico — uma condição chamada linfocitose monoclonal de células B (LMB) — podem apresentar um risco elevado de desenvolver várias complicações de saúde, incluindo o melanoma, uma forma de câncer de pele.

Rutgers Health researchers will enroll primary or secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (p-MS) patients to see if an engineered immune cell therapy can halt the progression of the autoimmune disease.
September is National Sickle Cell Awareness Month. Experts from Johns Hopkins Medicine who specialize in sickle cell disease are available to discuss health equity issues related to sickle cell disease.
Argon Medical Devices, a leading provider of medical device solutions for Interventional Radiology, Vascular Surgery, Interventional Cardiology, and Oncology procedures, announced the launch of the CLEANER Vac™ Thrombectomy System for the removal of blood clot from the peripheral venous vasculature.
The discovery of a new blood group, MAL, has solved a 50- year-old mystery. The findings allow identification and treatment of rare patients lacking this blood group.
High blood pressure disrupts natural day-and-night blood pressure dipping patterns in males and females, according to a new study from Tulane University School of Medicine.
An Iowa State University research team has discovered when and why inflammatory signaling affects the formation of blood stem cells in embryos, which will benefit efforts to develop lab-grown, patient-derived stem cell transfusions to treat blood disorders. The promising advancement in regenerative medicine could eliminate the need for bone marrow transplants.
A four-year, $1.2 million grant from the National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health to Wayne State University may help researchers find new clues to the interplay between Down syndrome and myeloid leukemia.
For many students, summer break represents an opportunity for relaxation and carefree vacations. But for the medical students taking part in the USC/CHLA Summer Oncology Research Fellowship (SORF) Program, summer means something more
