Question: Context: The independent prognostic value of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) has been questioned, and consequently we decided to investigate whether hsCRP was associated with subclinical cardiovascular (CV) damage independently of traditional CV risk factors.', 'In a population-based sample of 2028 apparently healthy individuals without prior stroke or myocardial infarction not receiving any CV, anti-diabetic or lipid-lowering treatment, aged 41, 51, 61 or 71 years, we measured in 1993 serum hsCRP, traditional CV risk factors (lifestyle, metabolic and hemodynamic) and assessed subclinical CV damage [atherosclerotic plaques in the carotid arteries, pulse wave velocity (PWV), urine albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR), left ventricular (LV) mass and ejection fraction].', 'Adjusting for age and gender in multiple regression analyses, higher log(hsCRP) was associated with higher logPWV (beta = 0.15) and log(left ventricular mass index) (LVMI) (beta = 0.09, both P < 0.001), LV relative wall thickness (beta = 0.07, P < 0.01), logUACR (beta = 0.04, P = 0.06) and more atherosclerotic plaques (beta = 0.06, P < 0.05). However, higher log(hsCRP) was only weakly associated with higher logPWV(beta = 0.06, P < 0.05) and more atherosclerotic plaques (beta = 0.04, P = 0.06) when adjusting for other significant CV risk factors, such as daily smoking (beta = 0.18), female gender (beta = -0.17), older age (beta = 0.11), lower log(high density lipoprotein cholesterol) (beta = -0.11, all P < 0.001); wider waist (beta = 0.17), higher body mass index (beta = 0.14), higher heart rate (beta = 0.06, all P < 0.01); and higher log(plasma glucose) (beta = 0.05, P < 0.05) (adj. R2 = 0.19, P < 0.001).
Answer: After adjustment for traditional CV risk factors hsCRP was only associated with PWV and atherosclerotic plaques, indicating a possible effect of low-grade inflammation on macrovascular damage. The close relationship between traditional CV risk factors and hsCRP suggested that hsCRP was an integrated CV risk marker early in the development of atherosclerosis.

Answer: Is high-sensitivity C-reactive protein only weakly related to cardiovascular damage after adjustment for traditional cardiovascular risk factors?

Question: Context: The authors previously described the complete regression of established neuroblastoma (NB) by the adoptive transfer of syngeneic interleukin-12 transduced dendritic cells (DC) from naive mice. However, some malignancies, like NB, abrogate DC immunostimulation. The authors hypothesize that IL-12 transduction of DC from NB-bearing mice will have the same antitumor properties.', 'A/J mice (n = 32) with established NB received peritumoral injection of 1 x 10(6) DC (DC, IL-12 DC, day 7 IL-12 DC or day 14 IL-12 DC) on day 7. Tumor growth, phenotype, and ability to induce NK and T cell activity were measured.', 'Vaccination with naive admIL-12 DC resulted in 100% tumor regression and prolonged survival. Transduced DC induced only partial responses in 75% (day 7) and 25% (day 14) of animals. No differences in phenotype or effector cell activation were noted between admIL-12DC in tumor-bearing or naive mice.
Answer: IL-12 DC from tumor-bearing animals have a decreased ability to induce antitumor activity against established murine NB. This decreased capacity appears to be related to the duration of exposure to tumor because day 14 transduced DC had less of an effect than day 7 DC, despite similar phenotypes and ability to activate immune effector cells.

Answer: Does advanced neuroblastoma impair dendritic cell function in adoptive immunotherapy?

Question: Context: Many patients with psoriasis have developed acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) whereas few reports on psoriasis-associated APL were found in the published literature. This study was aimed to study the etiology, clinical characteristics, and prognosis of psoriasis-associated APL and to map a suitable treatment regime for this condition.', 'This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 17 patients with psoriasis-associated APL diagnosed and treated in our hospital in the past decade.', 'The 17 patients accounted for 8.3% of the total patients diagnosed with de novo APL during the same period in our hospital. Their clinical characteristics of APL were similar to those of general APL. Four patients had a definite history of taking bimolane. All patients received arsenic trioxide (ATO)-based remission induction and postremission treatment. After induction, 15 patients (88%) achieved hematologic complete remission. With a median follow-up of 27 months, the 3-year estimates of overall survival were 77.2%12.4% and the 3-year estimates of event-free survival were 70.6%13.5%. In addition, the ATO-based remission induction and postremission treatment significantly improved psoriasis symptoms in 83 and 85.7% of patients, respectively. Through the final follow-up, no chronic arsenicosis or secondary malignancy was observed.
Answer: Psoriasis patients are at high risk for APL. The increased risk is most likely associated with the genetic background and bimolane treatment. The ATO-based therapy is especially suitable for patients with psoriasis-associated APL. Our study also brings a new treatment option for psoriasis.

Answer:
Is arsenic trioxide-based therapy suitable for patients with psoriasis-associated acute promyelocytic leukemia - A retrospective clinical study?
