Incidence, Diagnosis, and Outcome of Acquired Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (aTTP): A Nationwide Survey By the Spanish Apheresis Group
2019
Introduction: Acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (aTTP) is a rare disease characterized by a severe deficiency of the enzymatic activity of ADAMTS13 caused by autoantibodies, with an incidence of 3-4 x106inhabitants per year according to the few published data available. Accurate estimates of the incidence of aTTP are important to assess the resources required for current treatments and to anticipate the need to develop new treatments. The aim of this study was to determine the actualincidence of aTTP in Spain, as well as its diagnosis, management, and associated complications. Material and methods:A cross-sectional surveywascarried out among hematologists working in Spanish hospi…
Clinico-biological characteristics of patients with myelofibrosis: an analysis of 1,000 cases from the Spanish Registry of Myelofibrosis
2020
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE MYELOFIBROSIS: is an infrequent chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm. We aimed to describe the clinico-biological characteristics, treatment, and evolutive course of myelofibrosis patients in Spain.; MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 1,000 patients from the Spanish Registry of Myelofibrosis diagnosed with primary (n=641) or secondary (n=359) myelofibrosis were analysed.; RESULTS: Median age was 68 years. The frequency of constitutional symptoms, moderate to severe anaemia (Hb<10g/dL), and symptomatic splenomegaly was 35%, 36%, and 17%, respectively. The rate of thrombosis and haemorrhage was 1.96 and 1.6 events per 100 patient-years, respectively. The cumulative incid…
