We analyzed the effects of T-cell depletion on the outcome of HLA-identical sibling bone marrow transplants for leukemia by comparing 731 T-cell-depleted transplants with 2,480 non-T-cell-depleted transplants. T-cell depletion decreased acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (relative risk [RR] 0.45; P less than .0001) and chronic (GVHD) (RR 0.56; P less than .0001). However, it increased graft...

PURPOSE We examined the relationship between human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matching and the development of cyclosporine (CyA) neurotoxicity in patients undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation, and determined the frequency and imaging characteristics of CyA neurotoxicity in these patients. METHODS Records of 87 patients who underwent allogeneic bone marrow transplantation were review...

AIM To examine temporal changes in the indications for liver transplantation (LT) and characteristics of patients transplanted for alcoholic liver disease (ALD). METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort analysis of trends in the indication for LT using the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) database between 2002 and 2015.

BACKGROUND Innovations in hematology spread rapidly. Factors affecting the speed of introduction, international diffusion, and durability of use of innovations are, however, poorly understood. DESIGN AND METHODS We used data on 251,106 hematopoietic stem cell transplants from 591 teams in 36 European countries to analyze the increase and decrease in such transplants for breast cancer and chro...

Leptin has profound effects on adipose tissue metabolism. However, it remains unclear whether direct leptin signaling in adipocytes is involved. We addressed this question by transplanting inguinal adipose tissue stromal vascular cells (SVCs) from 4- to 5-wk-old wild-type (WT) and leptin receptor-deficient [Lepr(db/db) (db)] mice to inguinal and sternal subcutaneous sites in Ncr nude mice. Both...
