Following parathyroidectomy, the patient's hemoglobin and hematocrit levels normalized without further treatment, suggesting remission of PV. This case report and literature review highlight a possible relationship between the calcium-parathyroid hormone axis and hematopoiesis, providing insight into potential shared pathophysiological mechanisms.
The highly specific eosin-5'-maleimide binding assay demonstrated a reduced mean fluorescence intensity of 25.73%. The patient was managed with aspirin and ruxolitinib and continued to be monitored through follow-up evaluations.
Mutation profiles, along with cytogenetic, histopathologic, and clinical data, are used to categorize patients by risk for thrombosis, survival, and progression to secondary leukemia. The identification of a molecular enhanced scoring system for secondary myelofibrosis and clinically relevant co-mutation patterns capable to predict specific outcomes are under investigation.
This case underscores the crucial role of both bone marrow and peripheral blood morphological criteria in diagnosing CEL. This rare disease manifests at an advanced stage with complex clinical features but responds well to cytarabine.

PDGFRA (Platelet Derived Growth Factor Receptor Alpha) • FIP1L1 (Factor Interacting With PAPOLA And CPSF1)
Targeted mRNA sequencing can effectively detect fusion gene and has potential clinical application value in diagnosis and classificatation in hematologic diseases.
Multivariable logistic regression models identified male sex (OR = 8.993, p = 0.001) and the presence of JAK2 mutation (OR = 5.021, p = 0.002) as independent risk factors for HFpEF in this population. Patients with chronic MPNs, particularly males and those with JAK2 mutations, are at an increased risk of HFpEF, highlighting the importance of routine cardiologic assessment to improve outcomes in this patient population.
Cutaneous vasculitis is a rare but significant manifestation of essential thrombocythemia.Leukocytoclastic vasculitis may present with urticarial lesions resistant to standard therapy.Janus kinase (JAK) inhibition with ruxolitinib can achieve both haematologic and dermatologic remission in refractory cases.
It underscores the importance of using multiple complementary molecular diagnostic techniques when evaluating disease progression in myeloproliferative neoplasms. Early recognition of such atypical transformations is essential, as it can open the door to targeted therapies that may significantly alter the patient's prognosis and clinical trajectory.

ABL1 (ABL proto-oncogene 1) • BCR (BCR Activator Of RhoGEF And GTPase)
Despite treatment with a combination of mefloquine and mirtazapine, the patient died on the 102nd day due to disease progression. RA with non-drug related immune abnormalities should be considered a potential underlying cause of PML.
P=N/A, N=153, Active, not recruiting, City of Hope Medical Center | Completed --> Active, not recruiting | Trial completion date: Dec 2013 --> Dec 2025
The patient was treated with anticoagulation and cytoreductive therapy, resulting in clinical improvement. This case highlights the importance of early recognition of thrombotic complications in patients with ET, even when they are receiving ongoing treatment.
