Mediastinal Gray Zone Lymphomas: Diagnostic Challenges, Clinicopathologic Overlap, and Emerging Management Strategies. (PubMed, Hematol Rep)
Immune-based therapies, including brentuximab vedotin and PD-1 inhibitors, have shown promising activity, particularly in combination. MGZL remains a diagnostically challenging and therapeutically complex lymphoma with inferior outcomes compared with related mediastinal lymphomas. Advances in molecular profiling and immunotherapy offer promising avenues toward more personalized treatment; however, prospective clinical trials and international collaboration are urgently needed to establish evidence-based management strategies for this rare entity.

Puerarin-loaded injectable hydrogel mitigates skeletal muscle wasting in colorectal cancer cachexia by targeting inflammatory signaling and improving protein homeostasis. (PubMed, Mater Today Bio)
Experimental analysis showed that the CPO/PUE hydrogel could achieve sustained release of PUE, regulate the expression of muscle apoptosis-related proteins, inhibit the activation of the JAK2-STAT3 and NF-κB inflammatory pathways, and alleviate the suppression of the AKT-mTOR pathway. This delivery system effectively mitigates local muscle atrophy at the injection site in cancer cachexia, demonstrating a highly promising and significant therapeutic strategy.

The dual crisis of coronary thrombosis and sepsis in JAK2-mutated essential thrombocytosis: A clinical case report. (PubMed, Medicine (Baltimore))
This case suggests that JAK2 gene testing should be conducted for unexplained thrombocytosis; occult infection must be investigated when myeloproliferative neoplasm patients develop leukocytosis; maintaining therapeutic balance is crucial in the dual crisis of thrombosis and sepsis.

Pediatric Essential Thrombocythemia: A Case of a JAK2-Mutated Adolescent With Microvascular Symptoms. (PubMed, Cureus)
She was initially treated with low-dose acetylsalicylic acid, with partial improvement, but microvascular symptoms persisted, and platelet counts remained >1,000 × 10⁹/L. Hydroxyurea was initiated, leading to progressive platelet reduction and marked clinical benefit...Cytoreductive therapy may be indicated in cases with extreme thrombocytosis or refractory symptoms, and long-term follow-up is crucial to monitor disease evolution and treatment outcomes. This case highlights the need for multicenter studies and international registries to have pediatric-specific evidence that can better inform diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Evaluating inflammatory markers in distinguishing polycythemia Vera from secondary polycythemia: a prospect for novel diagnostic marker. (PubMed, Ann Hematol)
Each of these tests showed sensitivities and specificities over 85% and an area under the curve of more than 0.9. SII, NLR, and PLR were all higher in PV than SP, suggesting that these biomarkers, particularly SII, might be helpful in the diagnosis of PV.

A case report and a literature review of Myeloid/Lymphoid Neoplasm with Eosinophilia and PCM1::JAK2 rearrangement representing as B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia B-ALL. (PubMed, Ann Hematol)
The case highlights the importance of distinguishing de novo lymphoid malignancies from MLN-eo-TK, especially when JAK2 rearrangements are detected. Recognition of the clonal myeloid component during or after lymphoid-directed therapy has important diagnostic and therapeutic implications, supporting the use of targeted JAK2 inhibition in addition to standard chemotherapy.

Deep Cerebral Vein Thrombosis Triggered by Contraceptive Use in a Woman with Non-Overt Essential Thrombocythemia. (PubMed, J Nippon Med Sch)
The JAK2 V617F mutation is a valuable target for MPNs screening. Clinicians can choose a more appropriate course of treatment and lower the risk of recurrent thrombosis if they promptly detect other prothrombotic states in the patient.
