Why we need to register and report the results of all clinical trials
schwit1 writes in Slashdot: [i]"The requirement that medical researchers register in detail the methods they intend to use in their clinical trials, both to record their data as well as document their outcomes, caused a significant drop in trials producing positive results. From Nature: http://www.nature.com

LIKE A PHOENIX. . . . .
Hello Peops I have an update on my MF. . . . I'm sorry to say that after a year or so my Ruxo Golden Ticket Has left me on a very sticky wicket, My oversize spleen remains the same It simply hasn't played the game, The fibrosis is present within my bones And to be honest I fear these 'undertones'.

In the beginning...
...There was smoking, and obesity and .... well you know the rest. A trip down AML lane led to a bone marrow transplant and all seemed well until COPD came along. So, if the one doesn't get you the other one will - only slower! I am late in years now. Started out as a journalist (sorry people) and then

Transplant coming soon!
I have been fighting cll/stage 4 for seven years with little success. Have had all standard chemo and have been in two clinical trials (ibrutnib and ABT199). The ibrutnib worked great for about a year and a half. When it failed it was fast! Then I tried ABT199 which helped save my life, but was short

Going off Ibrutinib: should we be worried?
Hi everyone. My husband was due to go in for a stem cell transplant this week but it has been delayed as he wasn't well on the day. Due to a theatre being unavailable for the donor (for taking cells from bone marrow), it's been put back two weeks. This means my husband will now be off Ibrutinib for

CAR - T and safer Bone Marrow Transplants
Haemagological Times has this month published a couple of research articles examining ways to improve control of Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD), the potentially deadly risk associated with bone marrow transplants, where T-Lymphocytes produced from the donor's transplanted bone marrow attack the transplant

Child with sickle cell
I have a question my daughter is 4 and had sickle cell trait, about every two to three weeks she says that her stomach is hurting. She still eats and plays but all day long she says her stomach is hurting. Later on in the day she throws up everywhere. She does this about 3 times and then after that
