    Abstract BACKGROUND: Hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is well established as a corrective treatment for many inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) presenting in childhood. Due to improved techniques, more transplants are undertaken and patients are living longer. However, long-term complications can significantly affect future health and quality of life. Previous research has focused on short-term medical outcomes and little is known about health or psychosocial outcomes in adulthood. OBJECTIVE: This project aimed to ascertain the long-term social and psychological outcomes for adults who underwent HSCT for IEI during childhood. METHODS: Adult patients, who had all undergone HSCT for IEI during childhood at two specialist immunology services at least 5 years previously, were invited to participate in the study. Questionnaires and practical tasks assessed their current functioning and circumstances. Information was also gathered from medical notes. Data was compared with population norms and a control group of participant-nominated siblings or friends. RESULTS: Eighty-three patients and 46 matched controls participated in the study. Patients reported significantly better physical health-related quality of life than the general population norm, but significantly worse than matched controls. Patient’s self-reported physical health status and the perceived impact of their physical health on everyday life were worse than matched controls and patients reported higher levels of anxiety and lower mood than the general population. For those where their IEI diagnosis was not associated with a learning disability, cognitive function was generally within the normal range. CONCLUSIONS: Patients who have had a HSCT in childhood report mixed psychosocial outcomes in adulthood. More research is needed to establish screening protocols and targeted interventions to maximize holistic outcomes. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Screening for holistic needs and common mental health difficulties should be part of routine follow-up. Information should be provided to patients and families in order to support decision-making regarding progression to transplant and the early identification of any difficulties.

    Abstract Background: Although previous studies showed that frail older adults are more susceptible to develop cardiovascular diseases, the underlying effect of frailty on heart rate dynamics is still unclear. The goal of the current study was to measure heart rate changes due to normal speed and rapid walking among non-frail and pre-frail/frail older adults, and to implement heart rate dynamic measures to identify frailty status.
    Methods: Eighty-eight older adults (≥65 years) were recruited and stratified into frailty groups based on the five-component Fried frailty phenotype. While performing gait tests, heart rate was recorded using a wearable ECG and accelerometer sensors. Groups consisted of 27 non-frail (age = 78.70 ± 7.32) and 61 pre-frail/frail individuals (age = 81.00 ± 8.14). The parameters of interest included baseline heart rate measures (mean heart rate and heart rate variability), and heart rate dynamics due to walking (percentage change in heart rate and required time to reach the maximum heart rate).
    Results: Respectively for normal and rapid walking conditions, pre-frail/frail participants had 46% and 44% less increase in heart rate, and 49% and 27% slower occurrence of heart rate peak, when compared to non-frail older adults (p < 0.04, effect size = 0.71 ± 0.12). Measures of heart rate dynamics showed stronger associations with frailty status compared to baseline resting-state measures (sensitivity = 0.75 and specificity = 0.65 using heart rate dynamics measures, compared to sensitivity = 0.64 and specificity = 0.62 using baseline parameters).
    Conclusions: These findings suggest that measures of heart rate dynamics in response to daily activities may provide meaningful markers for frailty screening.

    Abstract We present five cases of cytomegalovirus (CMV) pneumonitis occurring in patients after recent T cell deplete allogeneic stem cell transplantation (AlloHSCT). These cases were complicated by an organising pneumonia (during the recovery period) with a predominantly central peribronchial pattern. All patients presented with evidence of active CMV pneumonitis which was treated successfully with anti-viral therapy but was followed by persistent severe dyspnoea, cough and hypoxia. High resolution computed tomography (HRCT) imaging showed widespread central peribronchial consolidation with traction bronchiectasis. There was a marked clinical and physiological improvement after treatment with systemic corticosteroids. However, in all patients the lung function remained abnormal and in some cases imaging revealed a fibrosing lung disease. These cases represent a previously undescribed central peribronchial pattern of organising pneumonia complicating CMV pneumonitis that can result in chronic lung damage.

    Abstract The optimum management approach for patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma remains uncertain. Autologous stem cell transplantation (autoSCT) is considered a standard option in suitable, younger patients with relapsed follicular lymphoma. AutoSCT is associated with very durable remissions in a minority of subjects, but also with significant, well-established toxicities. Although positron emission tomography (PET) status prior to autoSCT is an established prognostic factor in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and Hodgkin lymphoma, no data exist in follicular lymphoma. We describe survival outcomes according to pre-transplant PET status, classified by the Lugano criteria into complete metabolic remission (CMR) versus non-CMR, in 172 patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma within a national, multicenter, retrospective British Society of Blood and Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy registry study. The median number of lines of therapy prior to SCT was three (range, 1-6). The median follow-up after SCT was 27 months (range, 3-70). The median progression-free survival for all patients after autoSCT was 28 months (interquartile range, 23- 36). There was no interaction between age at transplantation, sex, number of months since last relapse, Karnofsky performance status or comorbidity index and achieving CMR prior to autoSCT. Superior progression-free survival was observed in 115 (67%) patients obtaining CMR versus 57 (33%) non-CMR patients (3-year progression-free survival 50% vs. 22%, P=0.011) and by pre-SCT Deauville score (continuous variable 1-5, hazard ratio [HR]=1.32, P=0.049). PET status was independently associated with progression-free status (non-CMR HR=2.02, P=0.003), overall survival (non-CMR HR=3.08, P=0.010) and risk of relapse (non-CMR HR=1.64, P=0.046) after autoSCT by multivariable analysis. Our data suggest that pre- SCT PET status is of clear prognostic value and may help to improve the selection of patients for autoSCT.
