Brain MRI Findings in Children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Background: Patients with leukemia are facing more complications in order to achieve longer survival. We aimed to evaluate the frequency of central nervous system abnormalities (CNS) on MRI of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Methods: Sixty-six children with diagnosis of ALL aged 2-18 years were recruited. Non-contrast sequences of brain MRI in addition to diffusion weighted i...
متن کاملWhole Exome Sequencing for Mutation Screening in Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis
Background: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an immune system disorder characterized by uncontrolled hyper-inflammation owing to hypercytokinemia from the activated but ineffective cytotoxic cells. Establishing a correct diagnosis for HLH patients due to the similarity of this disease with other conditions like malignant lymphoma and leukemia and similarity among its two forms is dif...
متن کاملAssociation of serum leptin level with obesity in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Background Obesity is a medical problem in survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Obesity is associated with many complications, so it is important to investigate the respective etiology. Leptin is a protein synthesized in the fatty tissue and is effective in the control of obesity. Survey of leptin in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) survivors could be helpful in controlling ob...
متن کاملWhole-exome sequencing identifies somatic mutations of BCOR in acute myeloid leukemia with normal karyotype.
Among acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with a normal karyotype (CN-AML), NPM1 and CEBPA mutations define World Health Organization 2008 provisional entities accounting for approximately 60% of patients, but the remaining 40% are molecularly poorly characterized. Using whole-exome sequencing of one CN-AML patient lacking mutations in NPM1, CEBPA, FLT3-ITD, IDH1, and MLL-PTD, we newly identi...
متن کاملOsteonecrosis in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
The morbidity and toxicity associated with current intensive treatment protocols for acute lymphoblastic leukemia in childhood become even more important as the vast majority of children can be cured and become long-term survivors. Osteonecrosis is one of the most common therapy-related and debilitating side effects of anti-leukemic treatment and can adversely affect long-term quality of life. ...
