Bleeding complications in bcr-abl-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN): A retrospective single-center study of 829 MPN patients

Kai Wille et al.

Summary: This retrospective study on bleeding complications in MPN patients found that antiplatelet and anticoagulation therapies significantly increase the risk of bleeding without affecting mortality, but there is no reason to refrain from guideline-conform anticoagulation in MPN patients.

Changes in the incidence and overall survival of patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms between 2002 and 2016 in the United States

Srdan Verstovsek et al.

Summary: This study analyzed trends in incidence and survival of myeloproliferative neoplasms in US adults, showing a rising incidence of essential thrombocythemia without concurrent improvements in survival, highlighting the need for more effective therapies. Improved survival over time was observed for polycythemia vera and primary myelofibrosis.

Advances in Risk Stratification and Treatment of Polycythemia Vera and Essential Thrombocythemia

Ivan Krecak et al.

Summary: This review highlights the importance of estimating and modifying thrombotic risk in the care of patients with polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocythemia (ET). It discusses recent developments in risk stratification, updated results of clinical trials with ruxolitinib and interferon, new approaches in antiplatelet and anticoagulant treatment, as well as early trials of novel agents and emerging therapeutic concepts for PV and ET.

Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis on the Associations of Polypharmacy and Potentially Inappropriate Medication With Adverse Outcomes in Older Cancer Patients

Li-Ju Chen et al.

Summary: The study found an association between polypharmacy and several adverse outcomes, as well as between PIM use and all-cause mortality in older cancer patients. However, caution is needed in interpreting these results as the majority of studies did not adjust for comorbidity and may be susceptible to confounding by indication.

Primary myelofibrosis: 2021 update on diagnosis, risk-stratification and management

Ayalew Tefferi

Summary: Primary myelofibrosis (PMF) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by stem cell-derived clonal myeloproliferation, with common features including bone marrow fibrosis, abnormal inflammatory cytokine expression, anemia, hepatosplenomegaly, etc. Diagnosis is primarily based on bone marrow morphology. Treatment strategies can vary based on risk stratification, with options such as observation, drug therapy, or hematopoietic stem cell transplant.

Quality of Life in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms Symptoms and Management Implications

Ruben Mesa et al.

Summary: MPN, including ET, PV, and MF, share biological underpinnings with somatic mutation-driven myeloproliferation, risk of thrombotic and hemorrhagic events, potential splenomegaly, cytopenias, progression to MF or AML blast phase. Patients with MPN also experience disease-related symptoms such as fatigue and vascular symptoms.

Beneficial effect of ACE inhibitors on kidney function in polycythemia vera

Ivan Krecak et al.

Summary: Reduced kidney function is associated with worse outcomes in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms. This study found that statins, ACE-i, male sex, and absence of chronic kidney disease were significantly associated with improved eGFR in polycythemia vera patients. Further research is needed to explore the potential effects of these drugs on other MPN-related outcomes.
