“…Those with t(8;21) and t(15;17) or absence of cytogenetic abnormalities had a lower recurrence and death rate as compared with those with unfavorable cytogenetic abnormalities (P = 0.007 and P = 0.002 respectively). White blood cell count was significantly lower in patients with numerical cytogenetic abnormalities than those without.Conclusion: Cytogenetic abnormalities were rather common in pediatric AML. …”

Calprotectin and Calgranulin C as Biomarkers of Pancreatic Tumors: Baseline Levels and Level Changes after Surgery by Michal Holub, Eva Bartáková, Alžběta Stráníková, Eva Koblihová, Simona Arientová, Marie Blahutová, Jan Máca, Miroslav Ryska

“…Moreover, the serum levels of calprotectin and calgranulin C demonstrated a significant predictive value for the development of POPF; the predictive values of these two proteins were better than those of the serum level of C-reactive protein and the white blood cell count. Taken together, the results of this study suggest that calprotectin and calgranulin C serum levels are potential biomarkers for pancreatic tumors, surgical injury to the pancreatic tissue and the development of POPFs.…”
