21. Diagnostic and clinical aspects of invasive fungal disease after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
Abstract : In paper I, 99 patients who received reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) were followed with weekly fungal PCR during the first 100 days after HSCT. Patients with a positive fungal PCR result were randomized to either treatment with liposomal amphotericin B or no treatment. READ MORE

22. The methodology and significance of minimal residual disease detection after allogeneic stem cell transplantation
Abstract : Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) is the choice of therapy for leukemia patients who respond poorly to conventional chemotherapy. Despite high remission rates after SCT, relapse of the underlying disease remains one of the most frequent causes of treatment failure. READ MORE

24. Outcome after allogeneic stem cell transplantation with special reference to non-malignant disorders, chimerism and graft cell composition
Abstract : The outcome for patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), a treatment for several severe malignant and non-malignant disorders with hematopoietic origin, is a balancing act between beneficiary effects and risk factors. Treatment success is still limited by excessive immune response, such as graft-versus-host–disease (GVHD) and graft failure (GF), or the lack thereof as in malignancy relapse or severe infections.

25. Health-related quality of life during and after stem cell transplantation
Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an established treatment for a variety of malignant diseases, as well as a small proportion of non-malignant disorders. The treatment before the HSCT (called conditioning) can be either myeloablative (MAC) or given with reduced intensity (RIC). READ MORE
