    Abstract Asciminib is a novel tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that specifically targets the myristoyl pocket. It has increased selectivity and potent activity against BCR-ABL1 and the mutants that most frequently prevent the activity of the ATPbinding competitive inhibitors. Results for clinical trials in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia that have received two or more TKI (randomized against bosutinib) or who have a T315I mutation (single arm study) have shown high levels of activity and a favorable toxicity profile. Its approval has offered new options for patients with these disease features. There are, however, a number of unanswered questions that remain to be defined, including the optimal dose, understanding the mechanisms of resistance, and, importantly, how it compares to ponatinib in these patient populations for whom we now have these two options available. Ultimately, a randomized trial is needed to answer questions to which we currently offer speculative informed guesses. The novelty of its mechanism of action and the exciting early data offer the potential for asciminib to address some of the remaining needs in the management of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia, including second-line therapy after resistance to a front-line second-generation TKI and improving successful treatment-free remission. Multiple studies are ongoing in these areas, and one can only hope that the desired randomized trial comparing asciminib to ponatinib will be conducted soon.

    Abstract Background: Sleep disturbances in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are common and more prevalent than in the general population. This study aims to assess the demographic and clinical risk factors for the diagnosis of sleep disorders in ESRD patients.
    Methods: This study is a retrospective analysis of the United States Renal Data System (USRDS) to evaluate risk factors for the diagnosis of sleep disorders, including hypersomnolence, insomnia, restless leg syndrome (RLS), or obstructive or central sleep apnea (OSA/CSA). All ESRD subjects enrolled in the USRDS between 2004-2015 were eligible for inclusion. The risk factors analyzed were age, race, sex, ethnicity, access type, dialysis modality, and the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI). All statistical analysis was performed using SAS 9.4, and statistical significance was assessed using an alpha level of 0.05. Descriptive statistics on all variables overall and by each sleep diagnosis were determined.
    Results: Increasing age, black race, other race, and Hispanic ethnicity were associated with decreased risk of each sleep diagnosis while CCI was associated with increased risk. Females were at increased risk of RLS and insomnia while males were at increased risk of OSA/CSA. Catheter and graft access decreased risk of RLS but increased risk of insomnia compared to AVF access. Catheter access increased risk of OSA/CSA compared to graft access. Hemodialysis increased risk of OSA/CSA compared to peritoneal dialysis.
    Conclusions: Some ESRD patients are at an increased risk for diagnosis of sleep disorders based on age, race, sex, comorbid health conditions, and dialysis modality.

    Abstract Background: Previous research in the general population suggests that the inflammatory skin disease psoriasis is associated with an increased risk of vascular events, such as stroke. Thus, psoriasis may also represent a risk factor for stroke in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients.
    Methods: We queried the United States Renal Data System for incident dialysis patients between 2004 and 2015. Psoriasis was defined as having at least two international classification of disease (ICD)-9 or ICD-10 diagnosis codes. ICD codes were also used to query the outcome of interest, stroke, as well as other clinical risk factors. Logistic regression was used to examine the association of psoriasis and other risk factors with stroke.
    Results: Of 966,399 ESRD patients, we identified 89,700 (9.3%) subjects with stroke and 6,286 (0.7%) with psoriasis. Of these psoriasis patients, 796 (0.9%) also had a stroke. Psoriasis was associated with an increased risk of stroke in an unadjusted model [odds ratio (OR)=1.16; 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.08-1.25]. However, after controlling for demographic and clinical risk factors, the final adjusted model showed that psoriasis was not associated with stroke (OR=0.96, CI=0.88-1.04). Congestive heart failure [adjusted OR of 1.79 (CI=1.75-1.83)] was a confounder of the association of psoriasis with stroke.
    Conclusions: Contrary to prior research in the general population, psoriasis in ESRD patients was not associated with the risk of stroke after controlling for various demographic and clinical parameters. Our finding emphasizes the importance of controlling for a variety of factors in population studies examining associations of diseases and risk factors.

    Abstract In the general population, abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is synonymous with vascular disease and associated with increased mortality. Vascular disease is common in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on dialysis, but there is limited information on AAA in this population. To address this issue, we queried the United States Renal Data System for risk factors associated with a diagnosis of AAA as well as the impact of AAA on ESRD patient survival. Incident dialysis patients from 2005 to 2014 with AAA and other clinical comorbidities were identified using ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes. Time to death was defined using the time from the start of dialysis to the date of death or to December 31, 2015. Cox proportional hazards (CPH) modeling was used to determine the adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for death. From a total cohort of 820,826, we identified 21,631 subjects with a diagnosis of AAA. When compared to patients without AAA, AAA patients were older and more likely to be of white race and male gender, have a higher mean Charlson comorbidity index (CCI), have hypertension as the ESRD etiology, and use tobacco. Although a bivariate CPH model showed that AAA patients had an increased mortality risk compared to patients without the diagnosis, in the final CPH model, AAA patients had a decreased risk of mortality (aHR = 0.83, 95% CI 0.81-0.84) due to confounding with age. These results suggest that AAA is not associated with increased risk of death in ESRD patients after controlling for various demographic and clinical risk factors.

    Abstract Drug-induced autoimmunity occurs when exposure to a causative agent leads to serologic or clinical autoimmune responses. Syndromes that may be associated with drug-induced autoimmunity include antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis (AAV) and drug-induced lupus (DIL). When drug-induced autoimmunity involves the kidney, histological patterns of injury include pauci-immune glomerulonephritis (GN), which occurs with AAV, and immune complex-mediated GN, which is associated with DIL. We present a case of hydralazine-induced dual ANCA-positive vasculitis and nephritis.

    Abstract Spinal cord tumors are sporadic and account for around 2%-4% of central nervous system neoplasms. Ependymoma is one of the most common spinal cord neoplasms and can present with different neurological signs and symptoms. They commonly present with neck or back pain and associated neurological involvement, with sensory symptoms usually antedating the motor symptoms. We now present a rare case of spinal ependymoma in a 26-year-old female who presented with isolated neck pain and the absence of other neurological symptoms. Attention to peculiar characteristics like isolated neck pain might be an essential key to early diagnosis and better prognosis.

    Abstract Choledochoduodenal fistula (CDF) is an abnormal communication between the common bile duct and the duodenum. It accounts for about 5% to 25% of the total biliary fistulas and is usually due to a perforated duodenal ulcer, choledocholithiasis, and complications secondary to tuberculosis or could be iatrogenic. Primary intrabilliary tumors usually cause obstructive jaundice and rarely biliary metastasis arising from other organs like colon, breast, and lungs can cause obstructive jaundice. There has been a case report of metastasis from ovarian cancer to the major papilla of the duodenum but no reported cases of it causing a CDF. We report a rare case of an 83-year-old female with ovarian cancer who developed a metastatic lesion to the duodenum eventually resulting in a CDF.
