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

Cytopathology in Focus: Paris System: a new paradigm for urinary cytology

May 2016—The Paris System Working Group has proposed and published a standardized reporting system that redefines the primary purpose of urinary cytology: the detection of high-grade urothelial carcinoma (HGUC).1 A program to address standardization of urine cytology reporting was conceived at the 18th International Congress of Cytology in Paris in May 2013 where a number of people of like interest assembled and formed the Paris System Working Group.

Cytopathology + More | Assessing needle core biopsy adequacy—survey of practices

May 2016—In the era of personalized medicine1 it is paramount to collect samples that will have sufficient material not only for an accurate diagnosis but also in many cases for prognostication or eligibility for targeted therapy or both. This may involve use of immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, microbiological culture studies, and molecular studies. Fine needle aspiration and needle core biopsies (NCB) are used routinely for diagnosis of mass lesions from various sites in the body, and both FNA and/or cell blocks and NCB have been used successfully for these purposes.

May 2016—Platelet transfusion: a clinical practice guideline from the AABB: The AABB recently developed guidelines on the appropriate use of platelet transfusions in adults. The guidelines are based on a systematic review of randomized clinical trials and observational studies from 1900 to September 2014 that reported clinical outcomes on patients who received either prophylactic or therapeutic platelet transfusions.

Q&A column, 5/16

May 2016—What laboratory test should be used to monitor the effect of the heart failure medication Entresto (sacubitril/valsartan)? After getting a consultation report, I usually issue an addendum without changing my own diagnosis. Some of my colleagues use an amended report with their own diagnosis changed. They say this will help clinicians with patient management. I do not feel confident about many of these difficult cases, so I do not want to change my diagnosis. We would like to establish a department policy to address this. Can you provide guidance?
