Vacancies in the L1 shell of atoms and molecules can decay non-radiatively via Coster-Kronig decay whereby the vacancy is filled by an electron from the L2,3 shell while a second electron is emitted into the ionization continuum. This process is akin to Auger decay, but in contrast to Auger electrons, Coster-Kronig electrons have rather low kinetic...
Introduction: Hairy-cell leukemia (HCL) is a rare B-cell chronic lymphoproliferative disorder (B-CLPD), whose favorable prognosis has changed with the use of purine nucleoside analogs (PNAs), such as cladribine (CDA) or pentostatin (P). However, some patients eventually relapse and over time HCL becomes resistant to chemotherapy. Many discoveries h...

In this study, we aim to explore the outcomes of Covid-19 infection in patients with Hairy cell leukemia (HCL). The cohort is based on data obtained from electronic medical records. It includes 218 consecutive patients diagnosed with HCL between 16 June 1998, and 20 September 2022, out of which the coronavirus has infected 85 patients during the Om...
AIM: To systematically assess the impact of commercially available hybrid closed loop (HCL) systems on psychological outcomes in youths with type 1 diabetes and their parents. METHODS: We performed a systematic review including studies published in the last 10 years. PICOS framework was used in the selection process and evidence was assessed using ...

Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) is an incurable, rare lymphoproliferative hematological malignancy of mature B cAlthough first line therapy with purine analogues leads to positive results, almost half of HCL patients relapse after 5-10 years, and standard treatment may not be an option due to intolerance or refractoriness. Proliferation and survival of H...

Technological advances offer the opportunity to improve glycemic control and reduce the risk of complications and burden of type 1 diabetes while improving patient quality of life. Closed-loop insulin delivery systems take the technology to a larger scale by integrating CGM systems with an insulin pump and an algorithm that automates insulin delive...

Hairy cell leukemia commonly presents with pancytopenia, indolent course, and predisposition as infectious complications. Current first-line therapeutic options are purine analogues, particularly cladribine, with a high percentage of complete responses and durable remissions. However, their use is poorly investigated in patients affected by severe ...

In the category of mature B-cell neoplasms, splenic B-cell lymphoma and leukemia were clearly identified and include four distinct entities: hairy cell leukemia (HCL), splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL), splenic diffuse red pulp lymphoma (SDRPL) and the new entity named splenic B-cell lymphoma/leukemia with prominent nucleoli (SBLPN). The BRAFV6...
