Role of consolidative radiotherapy in preventing relapses and subsequent salvage ASCT in early-stage classic Hodgkin lymphoma - PubMed

The role of consolidative radiotherapy (RT) in the upfront management of patients with early-stage classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) is a subject of debate. Particularly, its impact on preventing relapses and the subsequent necessity of salvage autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). We analyzed i …

Benji's sudden burst of playing on Thurs has been followed by two bad days, and a very bad night last night.
I'm wondering if the stress from me being out for hours yesterday morning made it worse - he has abandonment issues.
Today he is mostly sleeping but is eating at least.

Hoje é um dia muito emocionante pra mim. Já faz 13 anos que recebi um transplante de medula óssea; tenho muita sorte de estar viva. Quando o meu cancro recidivou, só tinha 20% de hipóteses de sobreviver. Feliz dia do meu renascimento! Fuck cancer

I'm reminded when I see the Common Periwinkle - Vinca Major of a related plant, the Madagascar Periwinkle - Vinca Rosea. It's the source of Vincristine, a #chemotherapy drug that those of us who have #Lymphoma behind us are grateful for.

The #EPA first classified #EthyleneOxide as a human #carcinogen in 2016. The agency based the determination on studies showing that the gas was 60 times more toxic to children & 30 times more toxic to adults than previously thought.

Real-world outcomes for CD19‑directed CAR T‑cell therapy (lisocabtagene maraleucel) in patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell #lymphoma

Eligible patients (N=1116) received liso-cel and had ≥1 effectiveness and safety assessment after infusion, including 195 in the second-line setting, 71 with sCNS, and 257 with transformed LBCL. Median age was 71.1 years (range, 21.5‒91.2), with 72.3% ≥65 years.

Today is Rare Disease Day.

I've got two of those.  

First is familial hypercholesterolemia. This is not your run--of-the-mill hypercholesterolemia. No. This cannot be just treated with diet and exercise. Even the statins aren't great at treating it. The state of the art is a PCSK9 inhibitor. This, this does wonders.

Then, there's the PCNS lymphoma. Lymphomas are already considered rare. The PCNS form is even rarer. I'm over 5 years in remission and doing fine.

May we eradicate all diseases, from the commonest to the rarest.
