Immunoglobulin heavy chain variable is an important prognostic biomarker in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, but the authors of a new review say its role has yet to be fully understood.

The causes of financial hardship among people with rheumatoid arthritis are not necessarily based on the cost of disease-modifying therapies, according to new research.

Only about 2% of cases of rhabdomyosarcoma primarily arise from the chest wall, and such cases require careful planning.

Though patients with type 2 diabetes or chronic kidney disease (CKD) face a greater risk of heart failure (HF) following acute myocardial infarction (AMI), patients without those comorbidities also benefit from empagliflozin.

Real-world data suggest metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease is also associated with higher all-cause mortality.

Previous research has evaluated PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy in patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC), but research in the setting of limited-stage disease is sparse.

Radiomic assessment has been used to distinguish multiple sclerosis from similar disorders, and it might also be useful in identifying MS stages and subtypes.

A new analysis suggests links between ZRSR2 loss and JAK2 V617R disease progression are indirect and complex.

Cardiac adverse events were lower among patients taking zanubrutinib compared with ibrutinib in the real-world setting.

A Mendelian randomization study suggests Actinomyces plays a role in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, mediated by circulating inflammatory proteins.

Nanopore sequencing of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) may be a particularly good fit in under-resourced areas due to its lower cost and smaller laboratory footprint.

Early research has identified several antigens that could help facilitate the use of chimeric antigen receptor T cells in small cell lung cancer.

The class of diabetes drug has a protective effect on the kidneys for reasons beyond glucose control.

New treatment options are needed for patients with accelerated-phase or blast-phase myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) ineligible for standard care.
