Management of rare hematological disorders pose unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to unusual occurrence and limited treatment options. We retrospectively identified 45 patients receiving matched related donor transplant for rare hematological disorders from 2006 to 2019. Patients were divided into two groups (1) malignant and (2) non malignant. The malignant disorder group included four patients while the nonmalignant group included 41 patients divided into immune dysregulation (n = 23), bone marrow failure (n = 10), metabolic (n = 5), and bleeding diathesis (n = 3). Twenty-six (57.8%) patients received myeloablative conditioning (MAC) and 16 (35.6%) received reduced intensity conditioning (RIC), while 3 (6.6%) patients with severe combined immunodeficiency received stem cell infusion alone without conditioning. The cumulative incidence (CI) of grade II-IV acute GVHD (aGVHD) was 39.1% (n = 18) and chronic GVHD (cGVHD) 15.2% (n = 7). There was no primary graft failure while CI of secondary graft failure was 9%. Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) was 82.2% and 77.8% respectively. Group wise OS was 75% in the malignant group, 82.6% in the immune dysregulation group, 80% in patients with metabolic disorders and bone marrow failure, while 100% in patients with bleeding diathesis. This retrospective analysis shows that hematopoietic stem cell transplant can be a feasible treatment option for rare hematological disorders.

The severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spread rapidly all over the world in late 2019 and caused critical illness and death in some infected patients. This study aimed at examining several laboratory factors, especially inflammatory and immunological mediators, to identify severity and mortality associated biomarkers. Ninety-three hospitalized patients with confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) were classified based on disease severity. Read More

The calcium phosphate component and surface topology of a scaffold are considered the two main factors that influence osteogenic differentiation. This research reports a one-step but effective scaffold preparation method that can regulate the morphology of nanofibers and control the distribution and release behavior of calcium phosphate nanoparticles (CaPs). Two beaded-on-string CaPs-loaded electrospun scaffolds (PT7. Read More

Objective: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a common infertility-related complication that affects approximately 1-3 % of women worldwide. Known causes of etiology are found in approximately half the cases but the other half remain unexplained. It is estimated that several thousands of genes contribute to reproductive success in mammals and the genetic causes of RPL cannot be fully addressed through targeted genetic tests. Read More
