Abstract

The Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS) is classified based on the presence of both clinical and laboratory criteria. Both sets of criteria are subject to much review and intense research as it is becoming increasingly clear that no single test is specific for defining this autoimmune disorder. A number of leading international bodies have released guidelines in an attempt to improve the laboratory testing and reporting. The current review is an appraisal of some of the literature pertaining to the laboratory testing.

Welche Krebserkrankungen bei Zöliakie häufiger auftreten

Eine große Kohortenstudie hat den Zusammenhang zwischen Zöliakie und gastrointestinalen Krebserkrankungen und inflammatorischen Krankheiten untersucht. Neben gastrointestinalen Tumoren ist auch ein nicht solider Krebs häufiger.

Adjuvanter PD-L1-Hemmer verhindert Rezidive bei Hochrisiko-Urothelkarzinom

Sind Menschen mit muskelinvasivem Urothelkarzinom für die neoadjuvante platinbasierte Therapie nicht geeignet oder sprechen sie darauf nicht gut an, ist Pembrolizumab eine adjuvante Alternative: Die krankheitsfreie Lebenszeit wird dadurch mehr als verdoppelt.

Duale Checkpointhemmung gegen Melanome verlängert langfristig das Leben

Im Vergleich zu den Überlebenschancen vor der Einführung von Immuncheckpointhemmern (ICI) ist der Fortschritt durch eine ICI-Kombination mit unterschiedlichen Tagets bei fortgeschrittenem Melanom erstaunlich. Das belegen die finalen Ergebnisse der CheckMate-067-Studie und geben Betroffenen "Hoffnung auf Heilung".

Knochenmarktransplantat als Chance für ältere AML-Patienten

Lange Zeit ist die Transplantation von hämatopoetischen Stammzellen nur bei jüngeren Patienten mit akuter myeloischer Leukämie praktiziert worden. Inzwischen profitieren auch Ältere davon. Ergebnisse einer Studie unterstützen dieses Vorgehen.
