Abstract: Introduction: Little is known about the clinical characteristics of women at increased risk for abnormal uterine bleeding (UB) during anticoagulation for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Methods: We used the RIETE registry to identify the baseline characteristics of women developing abnormal UB during anticoagulation. We used logistic regression analysis to identify independent predictors for abnormal UB. Then, we built a prognostic score to identify at-risk women. Results: From March 2001 through October 2022, there were 54,372 women with VTE. During anticoagulation (median, 181 days), 318 (0.6%) developed abnormal UB (major bleeding = 88, clinically relevant non-major (CRNM) = 230). On multivariable analysis, women aged 70 kg, with uterine cancer, recent UB, anemia, estrogen-related VTE, or receiving rivaroxaban or apixaban were at increased risk for abnormal UB. Using the prognostic score, 42,273 women (78%) were at low-risk, 8,828 (16%) intermediate-, and 3,271 (6.1%) at high-risk for abnormal UB. Their rates of abnormal UB were: 0.28 (95%CI: 0.23–0.35), 1.32 (95%CI: 1.07–1.61) and 7.12 (95%CI: 5.98–8.41) bleeds per 100 patient-years, respectively. The c-statistic was 0.80 (95%CI: 0.77–0.83). The rates of major UB were: 0.06 (95%CI: 0.04–0.09), 0.43 (95%CI: 0.30–0.60) and 1.85 (95%CI: 1.31–2.53) per 100 patient-years, respectively (c-statistic: 0.84; 95%CI: 0.80–0.89). The rates of CRNM uterine bleeding were: 0.21 (95%CI: 0.17–0.26), 0.85 (95%CI: 0.65–1.08), and 5.02 (95%CI: 4.09–6.10) bleeds per 100 patient-years, respectively (c-statistic: 0.78; 95%CI: 0.75–0.82). Conclusions: Using 7 variables easily available at admission, we built a prognostic score that reliably identified women with VTE at increased risk for abnormal UB during anticoagulation.

12. Increased serum level of alpha-2 macroglobulin and its production by B-lymphocytes in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Author: Regina Michelis, Lama Milhem, Evleen Galouk, Galia Stemer, Ariel Aviv, Tamar Tadmor, Mona Shehadeh, Lev Shvidel, Masad Barhoum, and Andrei Braester
Subjects: alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2M), B-lymphocytes, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, complement system, classical pathway of complement, Immunologic diseases. Allergy, RC581-607
Abstract: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), the most common adult’s leukemia in the western world, is caused in 95% of the cases by uncontrolled proliferation of monoclonal B-lymphocytes. The complement system in CLL is chronically activated at a low level via the classical pathway (CP). This chronic activation is induced by IgG-hexamers, which are formed after binding to alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2M). The study investigated for the first time the serum levels of A2M in CLL patients, their association with the disease severity, and A2M production by the malignant B-lymphocytes. Blood samples were collected from 65 CLL patients and 30 normal controls (NC) subjects, and used for quantifications of the A2M levels, the complement activation marker (sC5b-9), the complement components C2, C3 and C4, and clinical biochemistry and hematology parameters. The production of A2M was studied in B-lymphocytes isolated from blood samples as well as in CLL and non-CLL cell lines.The serum A2M levels were significantly higher in CLL patients vs NCs, showing values of 3.62 ± 0.22 and 1.97 ± 0.10 mg/ml, respectively. Within the CLL group, A2M levels correlated significantly with the disease stage, with sC5b-9, and with clinical indicators of the disease severity. Increased A2M production was showed in three out of four CLL B-lymphocytic lines that were studied, as compared to non-CLL lines, to a non-lymphocytic line, and to blood-derived primary B-lymphocytes. A2M production was further increased both in primary cells and in the CLL cell-line after incubation with CLL sera, compared to NC sera. This study shows for the first time that serum A2M levels in CLL are significantly increased, likely due to A2M production by the malignant B-lymphocytes, and are correlated with the disease severity and with chronic complement activation. The moderate change in A2M production after incubation with NC sera in-vitro supports the hypothesis that inhibition of excess A2M production can be achieved, and that this may potentially down-regulate the IgG-hexamerization and the resulting chronic CP activation. This may also help restore complement system activity, and eventually improve complement activity and immunotherapy outcomes in CLL.

16. The Effect of Oral Iron Chelator Deferiprone on Iron Overload and Oxidative Stress in Patients with Myelodysplastic Syndromes: A Study by the Israeli MDS Working Group.

Author: Merkel, Drorit, Soffer, Shelly, Filanovsky, Kalman, Braester, Andrei, Fibach, Eitan, Dana, Mutaz, Ofran, Yishai, Greenbaum, Uri, Nagler, Arnon, Amitai, Irina, and Mittelman, Moshe
Subjects: IRON overload, POISONS, IRON chelates, ERYTHROCYTES, OXIDATIVE stress, AGRANULOCYTOSIS
Abstract: Background: Most patients with lower risk myelodysplastic neoplasms or syndromes (MDSs) become RBC transfusion-dependent, resulting in iron overload, which is associated with an increased oxidative stress state. Iron-chelation therapy is applied to attenuate the toxic effects of this state. Deferiprone (DFP) is an oral iron chelator, which is not commonly used in this patient population, due to safety concerns, mainly agranulocytosis. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of DFP, on oxidative stress parameters in iron-overloaded RBC transfusion-dependent patients with lower risk MDSs. Methods: Adult lower risk MDS patients with a cumulative transfusion burden of >20 red blood cell units and evidence of iron overload (serum ferritin >1,000 ng/mL) were included in this study. DFP was administered (100 mg/kg/day) for 4 months. Blood samples for oxidative stress parameters and iron overload parameters were done at baseline and monthly: reactive oxygen species (ROS), phosphatidylserine, reduced glutathione, membrane lipid peroxidation, serum ferritin, and cellular labile iron pool. The primary efficacy variable was ROS. Tolerability and side effects were recorded as well. A paired t test was applied for statistical analyses. Results: Eighteen patients were treated with DFP. ROS significantly decreased in all cell lineages: median decrease of 58.6% in RBC, 33.3% in PMN, and 39.8% in platelets (p < 0.01 for all). Other oxidative stress markers improved: phosphatidylserine decreased by 57.95%, lipid peroxidase decreased by 141.3%, and reduced gluthathione increased by 72.8% (p < 0.01 for all). The iron-overload marker and cellular labile iron pool decreased by 35% in RBCs, 44.3% in PMN, and 46.3% in platelets (p < 0.01 for all). No significant changes were observed in SF levels. There were no events of agranulocytosis. All AEs were grades 1–2. Conclusions: Herein, we showed preliminary evidence that DFP decreases iron-induced oxidative stress in MDS patients with a good tolerability profile (albeit a short follow-up period). No cases of severe neutropenia or agranulocytosis were reported. The future challenge is to prove that reduction in iron toxicity will eventually be translated into a clinically meaningful improvement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Abstract Background Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a frequent complication in patients with cancer and a leading cause of morbidity and death. Objectives The objective of the RIETECAT study was to compare the long‐term effectiveness and safety of enoxaparin versus dalteparin or tinzaparin for the secondary prevention of VTE in adults with active cancer. Methods We used the data from the multicenter, multinational RIETE registry to compare the rates of VTE recurrences, major bleeding, or death over 6 months in patients with active cancer and acute VTE using full doses of enoxaparin versus dalteparin or tinzaparin, and a multivariable Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze the primary end point. Results From January 2009 to June 2018, 4451 patients with active cancer received full doses of the study drugs: enoxaparin, 3526 patients; and dalteparin or tinzaparin, 925 (754 + 171) patients. There was limited difference in VTE recurrences (2.0% vs 2.5%) and mortality rate (19% vs 17%) between the enoxaparin and dalteparin or tinzaparin subgroups. However, there was a slight numerical increase in major bleeding (3.1% vs 1.9%). Propensity score matching confirmed that there were no differences in the risk for VTE recurrences (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.81; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.48‐1.38), major bleeding (aHR, 1.40; 95% CI, 0.80‐2.46), or death (aHR, 1.07; 95% CI, 0.88‐1.30) between subgroups. Conclusions In RIETECAT, in patients with cancer and VTE receiving full‐dose enoxaparin or dalteparin or tinzaparin, no statistically significant differences were observed regarding effectiveness and safety outcomes over a 6‐month period.

Abstract: Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) have a suboptimal humoral response to vaccination. Recently, BNT162b2, an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine with a high efficacy of 95% in immunocompetent individuals, was introduced. We investigated the safety and efficacy of the BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine in patients with CLL from nine medical centers in Israel, Overall 400 patients were included, of whom 373 were found to be eligible for the analysis of antibody response. The vaccine appeared to be safe and only grade 1-2 adverse events were seen in 50% of the patients. Following the second dose, an antibody response was detected in 43% of the cohort. Among these CLL patients, 61% of the treatment-na ve patients responded to the vaccine, while responses developed in only 18% of those with ongoing disease, 37% of those previously treated with a BTK inhibitor and 5% of those recently given an anti-CD20 antibody. Among patients treated with BCL2 as monotherapy or in combination with anti-CD20, 62% and 14%, respectively, developed an immune response. There was a high concordance between neutralizing antibodies and positive serological response to spike protein. Based on our findings we developed a simple seven-factor score including timing of any treatment with anti-CD20, age, treatment status, and IgG, IgA, IgM and hemoglobin levels. The sum of all the above parameters can serve as a possible estimate to predict whether a given CLL patient will develop sufficient antibodies. In conclusion, the BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine was found to be safe in patients with CLL, but its efficacy is limited, particularly in treated patients.

Abstract: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common leukemia in adults in the western world. One of the treatments offered for CLL is immunotherapy. These treatments activate various cellular and biochemical mechanisms, using the complement system. Recently it was shown that the complement system in CLL patients is persistently activated at a low level through the classical pathway (CP). The mechanism of chronic CP activation involves the formation of IgG-hexamers (IgG-aggregates). According to recent studies, formation of ordered IgG-hexamers occurs on cell surfaces via specific interactions between Fc regions of the IgG monomers, which occur after antigen binding. The present study investigated the formation of IgG-hexamers in CLL patients and normal (non-malignant) controls (NC), their ability to activate complement, their incidence as cell-free and cell-bound forms and the identity of the antigen causing their formation. Sera from 30 patients and 12 NC were used for separation of IgG- aggregates. The obtained IgG- aggregates were measured and used for assessment of CP activation. For evaluation of the presence of IgG- aggregates on blood cells, whole blood samples were stained and assessed by flow cytometry. Serum levels of IgG- aggregates were higher in CLL and they activated the complement system to a higher extent than in NC. Alpha 2 macroglobulin (A2M) was identified as the antigen causing the hexamerization/aggregation of IgG, and was found to be part of the hexamer structure by mass spectrometry, Western blot and flow cytometry analysis. The presence of A2M-IgG-hexamers on B-cells suggests that it may be formed on B cells surface and then be detached to become cell-free. Alternatively, it may form in the plasma and then attach to the cell surface. The exact time course of A2M-IgG-hexamers formation in CLL should be further studied. The results in this study may be useful for improvement of current immunotherapy regimens.

Abstract: Background: The use of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) for long-term therapy of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients without cancer has not been consistently evaluated. Methods: We used the data in the RIETE registry to compare the 3-month outcomes (VTE recurrences, major bleeding or death) in non-cancer patients with VTE, according to long-term therapy with LMWH or vitamin K antagonists (VKAs). Results: As of March 2018, 14,582 non-cancer patients with VTE had received initial therapy with LMWH and then switched to VKAs, while 9151 were prescribed LMWH for initial and long-term therapy. Overall, 11,494 had initially presented with pulmonary embolism (PE) and 12,239 with isolated deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Among 11,494 patients initially presenting with PE, 84 had VTE recurrences, 204 major bleeding and 406 died. Among 12,239 patients with isolated DVT, 133 developed VTE recurrences, 137 bled and 289 died. On propensity score analysis, PE patients on long-term LMWH therapy were at increased risk for PE recurrences (OR: 3.30; 95%CI: 1.67–6.48), major bleeding (OR: 1.68; 95%CI: 1.21–2.32) or death (OR: 3.16; 95%CI: 2.43–4.09) compared with those receiving VKAs. In patients with DVT, those on long-term LMWH also were at increased risk for PE recurrences (OR: 2.31; 95%CI: 1.13–4.73), major bleeding (OR 2.28; 95%CI: 1.51–3.44) or death (OR: 2.32; 95%CI: 1.54–3.51). Conclusions: In the RIETE non-cancer patients with VTE, long-term therapy with VKAs was associated with a lower risk for recurrences, major bleeding or death.

Abstract: Structural mitochondrial abnormalities as well as genetic aberrations in mitochondrial proteins have been known in Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) , yet there is currently little data regarding the metabolic properties and energy production of MDS cells. In the current study we used state-of-the-art methods to assess OXPHOS in peripheral blood cells obtained from MDS patients and healthy controls We then assessed the effect of food supplements- Coenzyme Q10 and carnitine on mitochondrial function and hematological response .We show here for the first time that in low risk MDS there is a significant impairment of mitochondrial respiration in peripheral blood cells and this can be improved with food supplements. We also show that such myelodysplastic syndrome, mitochondria, oxidative phosphorylation, coenzyme Q10, seahorse XF analyzer. supplements lead to improvement in cytopenia's and quality of life.

35. Cell-free IgG-aggregates in plasma of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia cause chronic activation of the classical complement pathway.

Subjects: Medicine, Science
Abstract: Therapy regimens for Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) commonly include chemotherapy and immunotherapy, which act through complement-mediated-cytotoxicity (CDC) and other mechanisms. CDC depends on several factors, including the availability and activity of the complement classical pathway (CP). Recently, a significant decrease in CP activity was shown to be associated with an immunoglobulin-C5a complex (Ig-C5a) and other markers of chronic CP activation in 40% of the patients. The study focused on the involvement of IgG-hexamers, an established CP activator, in the mechanism of chronic CP activation in CLL. Sera from 51 naïve CLL patients and 20 normal controls were collected. CP and alternative pathway (AP) activities were followed by the complement activity marker sC5b-9. Serum high molecular weight (HMW) proteins were collected by gel-filtration chromatography and their complement activation capacity was assessed. The levels of IgM, another established CP activator, were measured. Data were associated with the presence of Ig-C5a. Baseline levels of activation markers negatively correlated with CP and the AP activities, supporting chronic complement activation. In patients with Ig-C5a, HMW proteins that are not IgM, activated the complement. HMW proteins were identified as IgG-aggregates by affinity binding assays and Western blot analysis. The data indicate chronic CP activation, mediated by cell-free IgG-hexamers as a cause of decreased CP activity in part of the CLL population. This mechanism may affect immunotherapy outcomes due to compromised CP activity and CDC.

Subjects: venous thromboembolism, COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, vaccination, Microbiology, QR1-502
Abstract: Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE)—including deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST)—may occur early after vaccination against the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). We sought to describe the site, clinical characteristics, and outcomes of VTE after vaccination against SARS-CoV-2. Methods: In a prospective study using the Registro Informatizado de Enfermedad TromboEmbólica (RIETE) platform, patients with VTE 4–30 days after vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 (1 February 2021 through 30 April 2021) were included. VTE patients recruited from the same centers into RIETE in the same months in 2018–2019 were selected as the reference group. All-cause mortality and major bleeding were the main study outcomes. Results: As of 30 April 2020, 102 patients with post-vaccination VTEs had been identified (28 after adenovirus-based vaccination [ChAdOx1 nCov-19; AstraZeneca] and 74 after mRNA-based vaccination [mRNA-1273; Moderna, and BNT162b2; Pfizer]). Compared with 911 historical controls, patients with VTE after adenovirus-based vaccination more frequently had CVST (10.7% vs. 0.4%, p < 0.001) or thrombosis at multiple sites (17.9% vs. 1.3%, p < 0.001), more frequently had thrombocytopenia (40.7% vs. 14.7%, p < 0.001), and had higher 14-day mortality (14.3% vs. 0.7%; odds ratio [OR]: 25.1; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 6.7–94.9) and major bleeding rates (10.3% vs. 1.0%, OR: 12.03, 95% CI: 3.07–47.13). The site of thrombosis, accompanying thrombocytopenia, and 14-day mortality rates were not significantly different for patients with VTE after mRNA-based vaccination, compared with historical controls. Conclusions: Compared with historical controls, VTE after adenovirus-based vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 is accompanied by thrombocytopenia, occurs in unusual sites, and is associated with worse clinical outcomes.

Author: Roni Rahav Koren, Celia Suriu, Orly Yakir, Luiza Akria, Masad Barhoum, and Andrei Braester
Subjects: Red blood cell transfusion, Knowledge, Medical overuse, Medicine (General), R5-920, Public aspects of medicine, RA1-1270
Abstract: Abstract Background A significant percentage of red blood cell transfusions are inappropriately overused. This study investigated physicians from the western Galilee in terms of their knowledge of transfusion medicine as a potential reason for red blood cell overuse, and assessed the influence of personal background characteristics on their knowledge. Methods Data were collected via anonymous questionnaires. The questionnaires included a personal background section and a professional section. Study participants were grouped according to field of specialty, seniority, and location of medical school graduation, in order to correlate participant characteristics with knowledge. Results Scores were calculated on a 0–100 scale. The overall knowledge of the study population was low (mean score 47.8 ± 18.6). Knowledge regarding basic physiology of red blood cell transfusion was also low. Internal medicine physicians and senior physicians had significantly greater overall knowledge scores and were more familiar with a restrictive blood management policy than were surgeons and residents, respectively. Comparing knowledge scores, no difference was found regarding indications for transfusion. Conclusion General and fundamental knowledge in transfusion medicine is lacking among physicians in the non-operating room setting, which may play a role in red blood cell transfusion overuse. Field of specialty and professional status influenced knowledge of transfusion medicine. Educational programs and increased physicians’ awareness might help decrease unnecessary transfusions. Trial registration Not applicable.

Subjects: *APPENDICITIS diagnosis, *BIOMARKERS, *PREOPERATIVE care, *APPENDECTOMY, *PLATELET lymphocyte ratio, *PREDICTIVE tests, *INFLAMMATION, *APPENDICITIS, *RETROSPECTIVE studies, *ACQUISITION of data, *MANN Whitney U Test, *SURGERY, *PATIENTS, *COMPARATIVE studies, *NEUTROPHIL lymphocyte ratio, *T-test (Statistics), *QUALITY assurance, *MEDICAL records, *CHI-squared test, *COMPUTED tomography, *ACUTE diseases, *MONOCYTE lymphocyte ratio, *MEAN platelet volume
Abstract: Introduction: Acute appendicitis (AA) requires a prompt diagnosis. According to postoperative pathological results, a significant number of appendectomies are performed on a normal appendix (NA). The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of preoperative inflammatory markers in supporting and improving the clinical diagnosis of AA, extracting more information from CBC parameters. Methods: The study is a retrospective one. The histopathological results of operated appendix from 102 patients, who underwent appendectomy for clinically suspected AA, were extracted from the Galilee Medical Center systems. Two patient groups (NA and true AA) were compared for neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR) and mean platelet volume (MPV). The obtained data were statistically analyzed, using the independent sample t test and Mann–Whitney test. Category data have been compared among groups with the chi‐squared test. The primary endpoint of our research was to assess the predictive power of blood biomarkers. Results: Patients with suspected AA, based on clinical picture and contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT), and with MLR‐value ≥0.3357 were 5.25 times more likely than normal to have AA. Patients with NLR‐value ≥3.2223 were 7 times more likely than normal to have AA. The differences in PLR and MPV values were not statistically significant. Conclusions: The NLR and MLR biomarkers can assist in diagnosis of AA. This can be particularly helpful in cases where CECT is contraindicated, as in pregnant women or children.

Abstract: Background: The association between heart rate (HR) and pulmonary embolism (PE) outcomes has not been well studied. Furthermore, optimal cutoffs to identify low-risk and intermediate- to high-risk patients are not well known. Research Question: Does an association exist between baseline HR and PE outcome across the continuum of HR values? Study Design and Methods: The current study included 44,331 consecutive nonhypotensive patients with symptomatic PE from the Registro Informatizado de la Enfermedad TromboEmbólica registry between 2001 and 2021. Outcomes included 30-day all-cause and PE-specific mortality. We used hierarchical logistic regression to assess the association between admission HR and outcomes. Results: A positive relationship was found between admission HR and 30-day all-cause and PE-related mortality. Considering an HR of 80 to 99 beats/min as a reference, patients in the higher HR strata showed higher rates of all-cause death (adjusted OR, 1.5 for HR of 100-109 beats/min; adjusted OR, 1.7 for HR of 110-119 beats/min; adjusted OR, 1.9 for HR of 120-139 beats/min; and adjusted OR, 2.4 for HR of ≥ 140 beats/min). Patients in the lower strata of HR showed significantly lower rates of 30-day all-cause mortality compared with the same reference group (adjusted OR, 0.6 for HR of 60-79 beats/min; and adjusted OR, 0.5 for HR of < 60 beats/min). The findings for 30-day PE-related mortality were similar. For identification of low-risk patients, a cutoff value of 80 beats/min (vs 110 beats/min) increased the sensitivity of the simplified Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index (sPESI) from 93.4% to 98.8%. For identification of intermediate- to high-risk patients, a cutoff value of 140 beats/min (vs 110 beats/min) increased the specificity of the Bova score from 93.2% to 98.0%. Interpretation: In nonhypotensive patients with acute symptomatic PE, a high HR portends an increased risk of all-cause and PE-related mortality. Modifying the HR cutoff in the sPESI and the Bova score improves prognostication of patients with PE.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Elotuzumab plus lenalidomide and dexamethasone has shown improved progression-free and overall survival versus lenalidomide and dexamethasone in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. We aimed to assess these regimens in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are ineligible for haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT). METHODS: ELOQUENT-1 is an open-label, multicentre, randomised, phase 3 trial conducted at 185 hospitals, oncology practices, and research centres in 19 countries. Eligible patients were aged 18 years or older with newly diagnosed, untreated, symptomatic myeloma and not candidates for high-dose therapy plus HSCT, and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 2 or lower. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive elotuzumab plus lenalidomide and dexamethasone or lenalidomide and dexamethasone using an interactive voice response system, stratified by the International Staging System (ISS; stage I-II vs III), age (
