Mashup Score: 0Rates of Influenza and Pneumococcal Vaccination and Correlation With Survival in Multiple Myeloma Patients - 1 year(s) ago
MicroabstractWe analyzed vaccination rates and associated outcomes of patients with multiple myelom in the INSIGHT MM study. Influenza vaccination in the prior 2 years and pneumococcal vaccination in the prior 5 years impacted overall survival versus no vaccination. Additionally, deaths due to infections were lower among vaccinated versus non-vaccinated patients. Vaccination status should be…

Mashup Score: 2State of the Art Updates and Next Questions: Treatment of Lower Risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes - 1 year(s) ago
MDS is a clonal stem cell neoplasm with a spectrum from lower risk disease to short term life threatening higher risk disease. The disease risk is dictated by clinical and molecular features. Majority of MDS patients including lower risk disease unfortunately succumb from disease related complications namely cytopenia. While cytopenias may be mild early upon diagnosis and can be surveilled,…
