An individualized nomogram for predicting progression-free survival in systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma: a multicenter, retrospective, and internally validated study.

OBJECTIVES: To develop an individualized nomogram for predicting disease progression risk in systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma (sALCL). METHODS: Independent predictors of progression-free survival (PFS) were identified using Cox regression in a multicenter retrospective cohort of 109 sALCL patients (2010-2022). These were incorporated into a three-factor nomogram, evaluated via bootstrapped internal validation (1000 resamples), ROC analysis, C-index, decision curve analysis (DCA), and clinical impact curve (CIC). RESULTS: A total of 29 PFS events occurred during a median follow-up of 31 months. Multivariable modelling selected serum β2-microglobulin elevation, extranodal disease, and front-line chemotherapy choice (CHOP versus CHOPE or BV+CHP) as autonomous progression drivers. Upon internal bootstrap validation, the nomogram yielded strong prognostic accuracy, achieving AUCs of 0.81, 0.85 and 0.87 for 1-, 3- and 5-year progression-free survival, alongside a corrected C-index of 0.779 (95% CI: 0.699 - 0.861). Calibration plots showed close agreement between predicted and observed outcomes, while DCA confirmed superior net clinical benefit versus conventional IPI or Ann Arbor stratification across multiple decision thresholds. CONCLUSION: This first sALCL-specific nomogram integrates clinical and treatment variables to provide personalized PFS risk estimation. While internally validated, this exploratory, observation-based tool requires external validation and recalibration in prospective cohorts before clinical implementation.

Clinical accuracy and short-term outcomes of intraoral photogrammetry for complete-arch implant rehabilitation: A retrospective multicentre study on 35 patients.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the clinical accuracy and short-term outcomes of complete-arch implant-supported fixed dental prostheses (ISFDPs) fabricated using an intraoral photogrammetry (IPG) based digital workflow in completely edentulous patients. METHODS: This multicenter retrospective clinical study included 35 patients rehabilitated with 52 complete-arch ISFDPs (10 FP1, 18 FP2 and 24 FP3 restorations) supported by 221 implants. All definitive prostheses were designed and fabricated using a fully digital workflow initiated by IPG acquisition with the Aoralscan Elite IPG® (SHINING 3D). The primary outcome was clinical accuracy, assessed at definitive prosthesis delivery through evaluation of passive fit using the Sheffield test and radiographic verification. Secondary outcomes included biologic and prosthetic complications, as well as implant and prosthesis survival rates during the follow-up. RESULTS: Passive fit was achieved in all definitive restorations (100%). Radiographic evaluation confirmed accurate marginal adaptation at the implant-prosthesis interface in all cases. No statistically significant differences in clinical accuracy were observed according to treated arch, number of supporting implants, or prosthetic design (P > .05). During a mean follow-up period of 12.1 ± 3.5 months, biologic and prosthetic complications were limited and generally minor. Implant survival was 99.5%, and prosthesis survival was 100%. CONCLUSIONS: Within the limitations of this retrospective clinical study, the IPG based workflow demonstrated high clinical accuracy and predictable short-term outcomes for complete-arch implant rehabilitation, consistently enabling passive fit and favorable prosthetic performance. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: IPG may represent a clinically reliable and predictable approach for complete-arch digital implant impression acquisition. The high rates of passive fit, together with the low incidence of biologic and prosthetic complications observed in this multicenter clinical study, support the use of IPG based workflows for the fabrication of complete-arch ISFDPs.

Triazole resistance in clinical Aspergillus fumigatus isolates in India, a multicenter surveillance study.

BACKGROUND: Triazole resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus is a global public health concern associated with treatment failure, notably in invasive aspergillosis. However, population-level data on triazole resistance from India remain limited, with most reports originating from single-center studies. METHODS: We conducted a multicenter surveillance study to assess the prevalence of triazole resistance among clinical A. fumigatus isolates across India. Antifungal susceptibility testing was performed using the CLSI broth microdilution method (M38-Ed3), and molecular characterization was conducted on resistant isolates. A total of 518 isolates were analyzed: 115 prospectively collected from 13 tertiary-care hospitals from 2015-2020, and 403 archived isolates obtained from the National Culture Collection of Pathogenic Fungi (1994-2020). RESULTS: The overall pooled prevalence of non-wildtype isolates was 4.1% for itraconazole (95% CI: 2.54-6.17%), 3.9% for posaconazole (95% CI: 2.39-5.94%), while 1.4% were resistant to voriconazole (95% CI: 0.55-2.77%). One multi-azole-resistant isolate from an immunocompromised, mold-active triazole-na&#xef;ve patient carried the TR34/L98H mutation, suggesting environmental acquisition. Prevalence of resistance did not differ significantly across geographic regions or between public and private sector hospitals. Linear regression analysis revealed a significant temporal increase in median MICs of all three licensed triazoles between 1994 and 2020. Approximately 29% of isolates exhibited amphotericin B MICs exceeding the epidemiological cutoff value; however, the clinical significance of this finding remains uncertain. CONCLUSIONS: Azole resistance among clinical A. fumigatus isolates in India remains uncommon (<5%), supporting the continued use of triazoles as first-line therapy. However, the observed temporal increase in triazole MICs underscores the need for sustained national surveillance to detect emerging resistance trends.
