Abstract Background Peripheral and mucosal eosinophilia may be associated with more aggressive disease in inflammatory bowel (IBD) patients. Vedolizumab blocks T lymphocytes, eosinophil adhesion, extravasation the gastrointestinal tract. It is not known if a predictor for therapeutic efficacy of vedolizumab. Methods This was retrospective cohort study IBD patients ileal or colonic biopsies who were off steroids before starting Biopsies rereviewed by pathologists, mean density quantified....
There are no clinical trials involving patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in sub-Saharan Africa since antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV became widely available this region. We aimed to establish the safety and efficacy of rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone (R-CHOP) DLBCL Malawi.
Access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) led epidemiological changes in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) associated lymphoma high-income countries such as reductions diffuse large B-cell (DLBCL) and stable or increased Hodgkin (HL) Burkitt (BL). In 2016, Malawi implemented a universal ART (UART) policy, expanding eligibility all persons living with HIV (PLWH). We compare the distribution of subtypes baseline prognostic characteristics for patients before after implementation UART. enrolled...
Introduction: Endoscopic ultrasound guided liver biopsy (EUS-LB) is effective and safe for parenchymal sampling, however no data are available in post-orthotropic transplantation (OLT) patients. In this series we aimed to examine efficacy safety of EUS-LB post-OLT Methods: All patients who had a history OLT underwent at single tertiary academic medical center were identified. The majority performed by 1 advanced endoscopist using 19G fork-tipped needle multiple actuations per pass, mostly...
The distinction between hepatocellular adenoma and carcinoma can be challenging. Many histologic features are proposed to indicative of including pseudoglandular formation with positive keratin staining. We hereby report two cases neoplasms the same histopathologic that received discrepant diagnoses thus different clinical management follow-up. Our raises consideration whether a generally accepted pattern, positivity, is truly associated malignant transformation neoplasm where put its...
PURPOSE We evaluated the concordance of lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD) diagnoses made initially at Kamuzu Central Hospital (KCH) with a limited immunohistochemistry panel and telepathology consultation University North Carolina (UNC) Chapel Hill second review UNC an extensive available. METHODS The prospective KCH Lymphoma Study in Lilongwe has been enrolling patients LPDs since 2013. Diagnoses are by pathologists Malawi supported US Malawian clinicians weekly conferences.
