Interaural time difference (ITD) is a cue to the location of sounds containing low frequencies and is represented in the inferior colliculus (IC) by cells that respond maximally at a particular best delay (BD). Previous studies have demonstrated that single ITD-sensitive cells contain sufficient information in their discharge patterns to account for ITD acuity on the midline (ITD = 0). If ITD d...

Acute myeloid leukemia is a malignant disease results from mutation in multipotent haemopoietic stemcell. The study aimed to investigate NPM1 and FLT3-ITD mutations Iraqi patients with AML correlateresults other clinical laboratory findings. Fifty-eight patients, admitted Baghdad TeachingHospital October 2019 till March 2020 addition 25 normal controls, were included the study.A detailed histor...

Activating mutations in FLT3 (Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3) by internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutations are found in approximately 30% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and are associated with poor outcome in this patient population. Numerous FLT3 inhibitors have been tested for the treatment of AML, but these inhibitors have shown variable responses that were attributed to heterog...

Objective: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by leukemic blasts that are not limited to the bone marrow or peripheral blood, may be presented with granulocytic sarcoma, and cells outside of blood called extramedullary involvement (EMI). Skin, bone, lymph nodes most prevalent locations illness. Granulocytic sarcoma (GS) should considered in differential diagnosis nodules, pustules, p...

Abstract Background Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a special type of acute myeloid Thrombosis at increased risk complication in patients with this disease. However, the factors thrombosis related to Chinese APL are not fully understood. Methods In study, clinical and laboratory data 44 consecutively were collected analyzed. Results One arterial 6 venous occurred patients, including 22 ma...

Wilms tumor 1 (WT1) mutations have recently been identified in approximately 10% of adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with normal cytogenetics (CN-AML) and are associated with poor outcome. Using array-based comparative genome hybridization in pediatric CN-AML samples, we detected a WT1 deletion in one sample. The other WT1 allele was mutated. This prompted us to further investigate the role o...

Background. We hereby describe what we believe to be the first reported case of t (14; 15) (q32; q13) associated with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Methods. PubMed, Embase, and OVID search engines were used to review the related literature and similar published cases. Case. A47-year-old female presented in December 2011 with AML (acute myelomonocytic leukemia) with normal cytogenetics; molecula...

BACKGROUND De novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with concurrent DNMT3A, FLT3 and NPM1 mutations (AML DNMT3A/FLT3/NPM1 ) has been suggested to represent a unique AML subset on the basis of integrative genomic analysis, but the clinical features of such patients have not been characterized systematically. METHODS We assessed the features of patients (n = 178) harboring mutations in DNMT3A, FLT3...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Recurrent balanced translocations are generally recognized to be a major parameter for prognostication in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). The chromosomal translocation t(15;17) results in PML/RARalpha fusion gene, t(8;21) results in AML1/ETO fusion gene and Inv 16 generates CBFbeta/MYH11 fusion gene. Patients with these mutations have a good prognosis unlike abnormalities ...
