In case of negativity of 4 antineutrophils autoantibody tests, after having excluded ethnic, postinfection, drug induced, or congenital neutropenia, according to the Italian guidelines the patients will be defined as affected by &quot;idiopathic neutropenia&quot; (IN). We describe the characteristics of 85 IN patients enrolled in the Italian neutropenia registry: they were compared with 336 children affected by AIN. The 2 groups were clinically very similar and the main differences were detection age (later in IN), length of disease (longer in IN) and, among recovered patients, age of spontaneous recovery: the median age at resolution was 2.13 years in AINs and 3.03 years in INs (P = .00002). At bivariate analysis among AIN patients earlier detection age (P = .00013), male sex (P = .000748), absence of leucopenia (P = .0045), and absence of monocytosis (P = .0419) were significantly associated with earlier recovery; in the IN group only detection age (P = .013) and absence of monocytosis (P = .0333) were significant. At multivariate analysis detection age and absence of monocytosis were independently significant (P = 6.7e-05 and 4.4e-03, respectively) in the AIN group, whereas in the IN group only detection age stayed significant (P = .013).&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30456824?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Farruggia, Piero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Puccio, Giuseppe</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fioredda, Francesca</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lanza, Tiziana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Porretti, Laura</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ramenghi, Ugo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barone, Angelica</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bonanomi, Sonia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Finocchi, Andrea</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ghilardi, Roberta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ladogana, Saverio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Marra, Nicoletta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martire, Baldassare</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Notarangelo, Lucia Dora</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Onofrillo, Daniela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pillon, Marta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Russo, Giovanna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lo Valvo, Laura</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Serafinelli, Jessica</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tucci, Fabio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zunica, Fiammetta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Verzegnassi, Federico</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dufour, Carlo</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Autoimmune neutropenia of childhood secondary to other autoimmune disorders: Data from the Italian neutropenia registry.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Am J Hematol</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Am.

We explored the significance of these markers in a large population of 769 affected children.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;PATIENTS AND METHODS: &lt;/b&gt;By using the database of patients enrolled in A.I.E.O.P. (Associazione Italiana di Emato-Oncologia Pediatrica) trial LH2004 for paediatric HL, we identified 769 consecutive patients treated with curative intent from 1st June 2004 to 1st April 2014 with ABVD (doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine), or hybrid COPP/ABV (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone, procarbazine, doxorubicin, bleomycin and vinblastine) regimens.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;On multivariate analysis with categorical forms, the 5-year freedom from progression survival was significantly lower in patients with stage IV or elevated value of platelets, eosinophils and ferritin at diagnosis. Furthermore, stage IV and eosinophils seem to maintain their predictive value independently of interim (after IV cycles of chemotherapy) positron emission tomography.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;Using the combination of four simple markers such as stage IV and elevated levels of platelets, ferritin and eosinophils, it is possible to classify the patients into subgroups with very different outcomes.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26630532?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Svahn, Johanna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bagnasco, Francesca</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cappelli, Enrico</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Onofrillo, Daniela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Caruso, Silvia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Corsolini, Fabio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">De Rocco, Daniela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Savoia, Anna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Longoni, Daniela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pillon, Marta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Marra, Nicoletta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ramenghi, Ugo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Farruggia, Piero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Locasciulli, Anna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Addari, Carmen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cerri, Carla</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mastrodicasa, Elena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Casazza, Gabriella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Verzegnassi, Federico</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Riccardi, Francesca</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Haupt, Riccardo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barone, Angelica</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cesaro, Simone</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cugno, Chiara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dufour, Carlo</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Somatic, hematologic phenotype, long-term outcome, and effect of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Seventy-two patients belonged to complementation group A. Eighty percent of patients presented with mild/moderate somatic phenotype and most with cytopenia. No correlation was seen between somatic/hematologic phenotype and number of missense mutations of FANCA alleles. Over follow-up, 33% of patients improved or maintained mild/moderate cytopenia or normal blood count, whereas remaining worsened cytopenia. Eleven patients developed a hematological adverse event (MDS, AML, pathological cytogenetics) and three developed solid tumors. 10 years cumulative risk of death of the whole cohort was 25.6% with median follow-up 5.8 years. In patients eligible to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation because of moderate cytopenia, mortality was significantly higher in subjects transplanted from matched unrelated donor over nontransplanted subjects, whereas there was no significant difference between matched sibling donor transplants and nontransplanted patients. In patients eligible to transplant because of severe cytopenia and clonal disease, mortality risk was not significantly different in transplanted from matched unrelated versus matched sibling donor versus nontransplanted subjects. The decision to transplant should rely on various elements including, type of donor, HLA matching, patient comorbidities, impairment, and clonal evolution of hematopoiesis. Am. J.

Between 1998 and 2011, 1574 consecutive children underwent allogeneic HSCT in 9 Italian centers. Thirty-three children (2.1%) developed AHDs: 15 autoimmune hemolytic anemia (45%), 10 immune thrombocytopenia (30%), 5 Evans' syndrome (15%), 2 pure red cell aplasia (6%), and 1 immune neutropenia (3%). The 10-year cumulative incidence of AHDs was 2.5% (95% confidence interval, 1.7 to 3.6). In a multivariate analysis, the use of alternative donor and nonmalignant disease was statistically associated with AHDs. Most patients with AHDs (64%) did not respond to steroids. Sustained complete remission was achieved in 87% of cases with the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (rituximab). Four patients (9%) (1 autoimmune hemolytic anemia, 1 Evans' syndrome, 2 immune thrombocytopenia) died at a median of 87 days after AHD diagnosis as a direct or indirect consequence of their disorder. Our data suggest that AHDs are a relatively rare complication occurring after HSCT that usually respond to treatment with rituximab.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal"

an inherited disease characterized by congenital malformations, pancytopenia, cancer predisposition, and sensitivity to cross-linking agents. The molecular diagnosis of Fanconi anemia is relatively complex for several aspects including genetic heterogeneity with mutations in at least 16 different genes. In this paper, we report the mutations identified in 100 unrelated probands enrolled into the National Network of the Italian Association of Pediatric Hematoly and Oncology. In approximately half of these cases, mutational screening was carried out after retroviral complementation analyses or protein analysis. In the other half, the analysis was performed on the most frequently mutated genes or using a next generation sequencing approach. We identified 108 distinct variants of the FANCA, FANCG, FANCC, FANCD2, and FANCB genes in 85, 9, 3, 2, and 1 families, respectively. Despite the relatively high number of private mutations, 45 of which are novel Fanconi anemia alleles, 26% of the FANCA alleles are due to 5 distinct mutations. Most of the mutations are large genomic deletions and nonsense or frameshift mutations, although we identified a series of missense mutations, whose pathogenetic role was not always certain. The molecular diagnosis of Fanconi anemia is still a tiered procedure that requires identifying candidate genes to avoid useless sequencing. Introduction of next generation sequencing strategies will greatly improve the diagnostic process, allowing a rapid analysis of all the genes.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal"

parenthood in a cohort of childhood cancer survivors included in the Off-Therapy Registry maintained by the Italian Association of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;DESIGN AND METHODS: &lt;/b&gt;We analyzed a cohort of 6,044 patients diagnosed with cancer between 1960 and 1998, while aged 0 to 14 years and who were 18 years old or older by December 2003. They were followed up through the regional vital statistics registers until death or the end of follow up (October 30, 2006), whichever occurred first, and their marital status and date of birth of their children were recorded. The cumulative probabilities of being married and having a first child were computed by gender and compared by tumor type within the cohort. Marriage and fertility rates (the latter defined as the number of live births per woman-year) were compared with those of the Italian population of the same age, gender, area of residence and calendar period by means of the observed to expected (O/E) ratios.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;During the follow-up period, 4,633 (77%) subjects had not married. The marriage O/E ratios were 0.56 (95% CI: 0.51-0.61) and 0.70 (95% CI: 0.65-0.76) among men and women, respectively. Overall, 263 men had 367 liveborn children, and 473 women had 697 liveborn children. The female fertility O/E ratio was 0.57 (95% CI: 0.53-0.62) overall, and 1.08 (95% CI: 0.99-1.17) when analyses were restricted to married/cohabiting women&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSIONS: &lt;/b&gt;Childhood cancer survivors are less likely to marry and to have children than the general population, confirming the life-long impact of their previous disease on their social behavior and choices. The inclusion of counseling in the strategies of management and long-term surveillance of childhood cancer patients could be beneficial to survivors as they approach adulthood.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21228031?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
