In this webinar, we will examine how immune recognition after allogeneic HCT can influence leukemia relapse and disease progression. The session will highlight the clinical relevance of HLA loss of heterozygosity (LOH), approaches used for its detection, and how LOH findings may support transplant strategies, including considerations for donor selection in subsequent transplantation.

Webinar presenter Alberto Cardoso Martins Lima, PhD, Clinical consulting scientist in histocompatibility,
specializing in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) at IGEN/AFIP São Paulo and CHC/UFPR in Curitiba, Brazil

2014 Issues

Guidance aims for safer use of lab data in EHRs

March 2014—A wide-ranging set of recommended health information technology safety practices recently issued by the Department of Health and Human Services is likely to accentuate the essential role that pathologists and laboratory leaders play in minimizing the adverse consequences of health IT.

Q&A Column, 3/14

March 2014—Q. What are the actionable mutations in melanoma that warrant routine molecular testing? Who should be tested, and what specimen should be tested? Is there a role for stat BRAF testing and for next-generation sequencing?

Put It on the Board, 3/14

March 2014—Patient-access rule creates opportunities, costs for labs: A long-awaited Department of Health and Human Services rule that requires laboratories to provide completed test reports to patients upon request may strengthen the relationship patients have with their pathologists, but also will pose another compliance burden for labs in many states.

In urinalysis, automated microscopy making the difference

March 2014—Traditional urinalysis is messy. It’s tedious. It’s prone to variability. It’s nicknamed the “ugly stepchild” of the laboratory. Many are quick to note that it’s just a screening tool—with an emphasis on “just.” But in recent years, urinalysis has been quietly tiptoeing into a new era.

With lab informatics, better to give than to receive

March 2014—If you had a colleague who was brilliant, experienced, and insightful, but who for some reason didn’t volunteer helpful information, you might agree with the assessment of Michael Laposata, MD, PhD: “If you only wait for people to ask you a question, that’s crazy.”

Diabetes debate: HbA1c or glucose?

February 2014—If it were a boxing match, the debate over whether hemoglobin should be used to diagnose diabetes would place the odds-on favorite in the “Yes” corner. In the “No” corner would be the underdog. At least based on the mainstream consensus since 2010, HbA1c for diagnosis is well established as an alternative to measuring glucose.

Clinical Pathology Selected Abstracts, 2/14

February 2014—Comorbidity-adjusted life expectancy: a new tool to aid cancer screening strategies: Controversy surrounds how best to use cancer screening tests in the elderly and at what age to stop screening. The benefits of early cancer diagnosis and treatment decline with age because many elderly people are more likely to die of a comorbid condition or other cause than of cancer. This impacts the survival benefits of early cancer detection. One must also consider the harms of screening, including complications of further testing and treatment for a disease that may not be symptomatic in a patient’s lifetime.

Newsbytes, 2/14

February 2014—Orchard Software collaborates with Memorial Sloan-Kettering: Orchard Software has entered into a long-term agreement with Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center under which Orchard will supply the cancer center with its Orchard Harvest lab information system while working with Memorial Sloan-Kettering to enhance and further develop its lab informatics products.

Saving time on HLA testing’s final compatibility check

February 2014—What would you give for a little more time? Take a vital task that you do every day, every week, or every month, and do it about three times faster—with no effect on the quality of the outcome. No, this is not another comfort-food recipe from Rachael Ray’s best-selling series of 30-Minute Meals cookbooks.
