Abstract
This study investigates the interaction between endothelial activation, indirectly measured using EASIX, and the probability of presenting cardiac adverse events (CAE) during the first year after allo-HCT. The 437 consecutive adults undergoing PB allo-HCT from 2012 and 2021 were included. EASIX was retrospectively calculated before and during the first 6 months after allo-HCT and transformed to log2-base to conduct the statistical analysis. The median age was 53, 46 (10.5%) patients had previous history of cardiac disease, MAC allo-HCTs were performed in 186 (42.6%) patients, and PTCY was administered in 242 (55.5%). The 1-year incidence of CAE was 12.6% (n = 55). The most prevalent cardiac events were heart failure and arrhythmias, 32.7% and 23.6% respectively, and the day +100 mortality rate of these patients was 40.5%. During the first 6 months after allo-HCT, EASIX trends were significantly higher in patients who developed CAE. Regression analyses confirmed that higher log2-EASIX values were predictors for higher risk for CAE during the first year after allo-HCT. This analysis identifies a significant association between higher endothelial activation, indirectly measured using EASIX, and higher risk for cardiac toxicity diagnosed during the first year after allo-HCT and extends the applicability of EASIX for identifying patients at risk for CAE.

Abstract
Limited data regarding elevation of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in mobilized donors with G-CSF is available. We extended these findings by examining serum NT-proBNP in a cohort study including 35 healthy donors and 69 patients who received G-CSF for CD34+ mobilization as well as 54 patients who did not receive G-CSF but who underwent collection of CD3+ cells for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell manufacturing. No donor in the three cohorts experienced significant cardiac adverse events. NT-proBNP levels were measured before and after G-CSF administration and after finishing apheresis procedure. NT-proBNP increase was observed in mobilized healthy donors after G-CSF administration, but was not observed in mobilized or non-mobilized patients. Only in the cohort of healthy donors, pairwise comparisons using Wilcoxon signed ranks test showed a significant increase between the mean serum NT-proBNP level after G-CSF administration and the mean serum NT-proBNP level measured before G-CSF administration (231.09 ± 156.15 pg/mL vs. 58.88 ± 26.84 pg/mL; P < .01). No correlation was observed between NT-proBNP increase and G-CSF dose (rs = 0.09; n = 32; P = .6) and no other variables contributing to predict serum NT-proBNP increase were detected. In conclusion, we observed a statistically, although not clinically, significant increase of NT-proBNP in healthy donors who received G-CSF as CD34+ cell mobilization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Clinical efficacy and safety of pathogen-reduced platelet concentrates (PR-PCs) concerning bleeding prevention are still debated despite conclusive real-world data from multiple countries where PR-PCs are transfused routinely. We performed a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the clinical efficacy and safety of conventional platelet components (PCs) and PR-PCs prepared with the amotosalen/ultraviolet A light (INTERCEPT platelet concentrate [I-PC]) or riboflavin/ultraviolet light (Mirasol platelet concentrate [M-PC]) technologies, transfused in thrombocytopenic adult patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS A literature search was conducted, and 10 RCTs met the criteria for inclusion in this meta-analysis. Summary odds ratios (ORs) of clinically significant bleeding (World Health Organization [WHO] bleeding grade ≥2), severe bleeding (WHO bleeding score ≥3) and all-cause mortality were calculated. RESULTS The use of I-PC was not associated with an increase in the OR of clinically significant bleeding when compared to non-treated PCs (OR, 1.12; 95% CI: 0.89-1.41; p = 0.33), whereas transfusions with M-PC showed an increase in clinically significant bleeding (OR, 1.34; 95% CI: 1.03-1.75; p = 0.03). The OR of severe bleeding did not increase with either I-PC or M-PC (OR 0.88; 95% CI: 0.59-1.31; p = 0.52 for I-PC; OR 1.25; 95% CI: 0.66-2.37; p = 0.49 for M-PC). In the case of all-cause mortality, compared to non-treated PC, I-PC showed an OR of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.36-1.04; p = 0.07), and M-PC showed an OR of 3.04 (95% CI: 0.81-11.47; p = 0.1). CONCLUSION No differences were observed concerning the clinical efficacy and safety of overall PR-PCs when compared to non-treated PCs. However, differences are evident when analysing platelets prepared with the two PR technologies independently.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current laboratory tests fail to evaluate the hemostatic function of platelets in patients with thrombocytopenia. We investigated the use of the Total Thrombus-Formation Analysis System (T-TAS® 01 [Fujimori Kogyo Co, Tokyo, Japan]) to evaluate hemostasis under conditions of experimental thrombocytopenia, and in patients before and after platelet transfusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS Specific T-TAS 01 chips, for thrombocytopenic conditions, were used. The area under the curve (AUC) and occlusion time (OT, min) were measured in: (i) experimentally induced thrombocytopenia (183±15 to 6.3±1.2×103 platelets/μL) in blood samples from healthy donors (No.=13), and (ii) blood from oncohematological thrombocytopenic patients (No.=48), before and after platelet transfusion. The influences of hematocrit and number of transfusions were analyzed in these patients. RESULTS Progressive reductions of AUC and prolongations of OT related significantly to decreasing platelet counts (p<0.05 for all) in experimental thrombocytopenia. In samples from thrombocytopenic patients, platelet counts, AUC and OT were, respectively, 10.8±0.6×103/μL, 175.2±59, and 27.2±1 min before transfusion; and 22±1.5×103/μL, 400.8±83 and 22.9±1.5 min after platelet transfusion (p<0.01 for all). A hematocrit below 25% or exposure to ten or more previous platelet transfusions had a negative impact on the T-TAS 01 performance in patients. In vitro correction of the hematocrit improved the hemostatic response in thrombocytopenic patients. DISCUSSION T-TAS 01 measurements were sensitive to low platelet counts in the experimental setting. The technology was sensitive to evaluate the hemostatic capacity of platelet transfusions. Exposure to multiple medications, repeated platelet transfusions and lower hematocrits may interfere with the hemostatic performance in oncohematological patients with thrombocytopenia.

Abstract
Varnimcabtagene autoleucel (var-cel) is an academic anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) product used for the treatment of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in the CART19-BE-01 trial. Here we report updated outcomes of patients with NHL treated with var-cel. B-cell recovery was compared with patients with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). Forty-five patients with NHL were treated. Cytokine release syndrome (any grade) occurred in 84% of patients (4% grade ≥3) and neurotoxicity in 7% (2% grade ≥3). The objective response rate was 73% at Day +100, and the 3-year duration of response was 56%. The 3-year progression-free and overall survival were 40% and 52% respectively. High lactate dehydrogenase was the only covariate with an impact on progression-free survival. The 3-year incidence of B-cell recovery was lower in patients with NHL compared to ALL (25% vs. 60%). In conclusion, in patients with NHL, the toxicity of var-cel was manageable, while B-cell recovery was significantly prolonged compared to ALL. This trial was registered as NCT03144583.

Abstract
This study compared the efficacy of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) and tacrolimus (Tac) versus other regimens in 272 adults undergoing peripheral blood (PB) allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) from HLA-matched donors. Of these 272 patients, 95 (34.9%) received PTCy/Tac. The times to neutrophil and platelet engraftment were longer in the PTCy/Tac group (20 days versus 16 days for neutrophils and 19 days versus 12 days for platelets). The day +30 cumulative incidence (CuI) of bacterial bloodstream infection was higher in the PTCy/Tac group (43.2% versus 13.0%; P < .001). The CuIs of grade II-IV and grade III-IV acute GVHD (aGVHD) at day +180 were 14.7% and 4.2%, and the CuI of moderate/severe cGVHD at 2 years was 2.4% in the PTCy/Tac group and 41.8% (hazard ratio [HR], .29; P < .001), 15.8%, (HR, .24; P = .007), and 47.0% (HR, .05; P < .001), respectively, in the no-PTCy group. The duration of immunosuppression was shorter in patients receiving PTCy/Tac (6.2 months versus 9.0 months; P < .001). PTCy/Tac patients had higher OS (2 years: 74.3% versus 60.9%; HR, .54; P = .012), lower NRM (2 years: 8.6% versus 15.8%; HR, .54; P = .11), comparable CuI of relapse (2 years: 26.0% versus 24.4%; HR, 1.03; P = .89), and higher GRFS (2 years: 59.1% versus 16.7%; HR, .32; P < .001). Using PTCy/Tac in HLA-matched PB allo-HCT improved transplantation outcomes at out institution compared with previous prophylactic regimens, including a higher probability of survival despite more delayed engraftment and a higher rate of bacterial infection.

Abstract
Caplacizumab prevents the interaction between von Willebrand factor and platelets, and is used to treat immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP). Its administration has been associated with a delay in ADAMTS13 activity restoration after plasma exchange (PEX) suspension. We analyzed the outcomes of 113 iTTP episodes, 75 of which were treated with caplacizumab, in 108 patients from the Spanish Registry of Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura. Caplacizumab shortened the time to platelet count normalization and reduced PEX requirement, exacerbations and relapses. There was no difference in the time to achieve ADAMTS13 activity ≥20% after PEX end between caplacizumab-treated and non-treated episodes (14.5 [7.7-27.2] vs. 13.0 [8.0-29.0] days, median [IQR], P=.653). However, considering the 36 episodes where caplacizumab started <=3 days after iTTP diagnosis, the time to ADAMTS13 restoration from PEX end was higher than in those episodes where caplacizumab started >3 days after iTTP diagnosis (20.0 [12.0-43.0] vs. 11.0 [3.5-20.0] days, P = .003), or than in non-caplacizumab-treated episodes (P=.033). This finding could be related to a significantly shorter duration of PEX in early caplacizumab-treated episodes than in late caplacizumab-treated episodes (5.5 [4.0-9.0] vs. 15.0 [11.0-21.5] days, P <.001) or non-caplacizumab-treated episodes (11.0 [6.0-26.0] days, P < .001). There were no differences in time to ADAMTS-13 restoration from PEX start (28.0 [17.2-47.5], 27.0 [19.0-37.5] and 29.5 [15.2-45.0] days in early caplacizumab-treated, late caplacizumab-treated and non-caplacizumab-treated episodes). Early administered caplacizumab does not prevent the requirement for immunosuppression but has beneficial effects by shortening PEX requirement without major safety concerns.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS Post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCY)-based prophylaxis is becoming widespread for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) performed independently of the selected donor source. In parallel, use of the Endothelial Activation and Stress Index (EASIX)-considered a surrogate parameter of endothelial activation-for predicting patient outcomes and clinical complications is gaining popularity in the allo-HCT setting. METHODS We first investigated whether the dynamics of EASIX after allo-HCT differ between patients receiving PTCY and patients receiving other prophylaxis. We then investigated whether the predictive capacity of EASIX persists in PTCY-based allo-HCT. A total of 328 patients transplanted between 2014 and 2020 were included, and 201 (61.2%) received PTCY. RESULTS EASIX trends differed significantly between the groups. Compared with patients receiving other prophylaxis, patients receiving PTCY had lower EASIX on day 0 and higher values between day 7 and day 100. In patients receiving PTCY, higher EASIX correlated significantly with higher non-relapse mortality (NRM) and lower overall survival (OS) when measured before and during the first 180 days after allo-HCT. In addition, higher EASIX scores measured at specific time points were predictors of veno-occlusive disease (VOD), transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA) and grade 2-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) risk. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates how EASIX trends vary during the first 180 days after allo-HCT in patients receiving PTCY and those not receiving PTCY and validates the utility of this index for predicting NRM, OS and risk of VOD, TA-TMA and grade 2-4 aGVHD in patients receiving PTCY.

Abstract
We investigated the predictive capacity of six prognostic indices [Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS), Hematopoietic Cell Transplant-Specific Comorbidity Index (HCT-CI), Disease Risk Index (DRI), European Bone Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) and Revised Pre-Transplantation Assessment of Mortality (rPAM) Scores and Endothelial Activation and Stress Index (EASIX)] in 205 adults undergoing post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy)-based allo-HCT. KPS, HCT-CI, DRI and EASIX grouped patients into higher and lower risk strata. KPS and EASIX maintained appropriate discrimination for OS prediction across the first 2 years after allo-HCT [receiver operating characteristic curve (area under the curve (AUC) > 55 %)]. The discriminative capacity of DRI and HCT-CI increased during the post-transplant period, with a peak of prediction at 2 years (AUC of 61.1 % and 61.8 %). The maximum rPAM discriminative capacity was at 1 year (1-year AUC of 58.2 %). The predictive capacity of the EBMT score was not demonstrated. This study validates the discrimination capacity for OS prediction of KPS, HCT-CI, DRI and EASIX in PTCy-based allo-HCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Bone marrow (BM) harvesting is one of the essential sources of stem cells for haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In 2019, commercial BM collection kits became unavailable in Europe. Consequently, we created an in-house BM collection kit as an alternative. MATERIALS AND METHODS We compared two groups of BM collections. The first collections were taken using an in-house kit from June 2022 through February 2023 and the second with a commercial kit from February 2021 through May 2022. These all took place at seven collection centres (CC). We analysed the harvest quality (cell blood count, CD34+ cells, viability, potency and sterility), the incidents occurring with each kit and the time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment in recipients. RESULTS A total of 23 donors underwent BM harvesting with the in-house kit and 23 with the commercial one. Both cohorts were comparable regarding donor characteristics, CC and time to procedure. No statistical differences were found in harvest quality between the in-house and commercial kits. A new transfusion set was required in three BM harvests (13%) with the in-house kit because of filter clogging. The median time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment was 21 days for both cohorts and 29 days (in-house) and 33 days (commercial), p = 0.284, respectively. CONCLUSION The in-house BM collection kit offers a real approach to solve the diminished supply of commercial kits. A higher risk of filter clogging was observed compared with commercial kits due to the lack of 850 and 500 μm filters.

Abstract
Introduction Bone marrow necrosis is a rare entity that can develop in context of a sickle cell disease vaso-occlusive crisis. Its physiopathology is related to an endothelial dysfunction taking place in bone marrow microvasculature. Case Presentation A 30-year-old patient with history of compound heterozygous sickle cell disease was admitted following SARS-CoV-2 infection with fever and diarrhea. After initial favorable evolution, he developed a severe vaso-occlusive crisis with intense hemolysis and multi-organ ischemic complications. Patient then developed high fever and hypoxemia. With the suspicion of acute thoracic syndrome, a red blood cell exchange was performed. Respiratory symptoms ceased but patient persisted febrile with very high levels of acute phase reactants, persistent pancytopenia, and leucoerythroblastic reaction. An infectious cause was ruled out. Afterward, bone marrow aspiration and bone marrow biopsy showed a picture of bone marrow necrosis, which is an extremely rare complication of vaso-occlusive crisis but, paradoxically, more frequent in milder heterozygote cases of sickle cell disease. Ultimately, large deposits of complement membrane attack complex (particles C5b-9) were demonstrated after incubation of laboratory endothelial cells with activated plasma from the patient. Discussion The clinical presentation and findings are consistent with a case of bone marrow necrosis. In this setting, the demonstration of complement as a potential cause of the endothelial dysfunction mimics the pattern of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome and other microangiopathic anemias. This dysregulation may be a potential therapeutic target for new complement activation blockers.

Abstract
Autologous chimeric antigen receptor-modified T-cells (CAR-T) provide meaningful benefit for otherwise refractory malignancies. As clinical indications for CAR-T cells are expanding, hospitals hitherto not active in the field of immune effector cell therapy will need to build capacity and expertise. The GoCART Coalition seeks to disseminate knowledge and skills to facilitate the introduction of CAR-T cells and to standardize management and documentation of CAR-T cell recipients, in order to optimize outcomes and to be able to benchmark clinical results against other centers. Apheresis generates the starting material for CAR-T cell manufacturing. This guide provides some initial suggestions for patient's apheresis readiness and performance to collect starting material and should thus facilitate the implementation of a CAR-T-starting material apheresis facility. It cannot replace, of course, the extensive training needed to perform qualitative apheresis collections in compliance with national and international regulations and assess their cellular composition and biological safety.

Abstract
Atrial biophysical simulations have the potential to enhance outcomes by enabling the simulation of pharmacological and ablative strategies. However, the high computational times associated with such simulations render them unsuitable for diagnostic purposes. To address this challenge, discrete models such as cellular automata (CA) have been developed, which consider a finite number of states, thus significantly reducing computational times. Yet, there is a pressing need to determine whether CA can replicate pathological simulations with accuracy. The analysis of simulations under different degrees of electrical remodeling shows an expected increase of Action Potential Duration (APD) with the previous Diastolic Interval (DI) interval, indicating short-term memory of atrial cardiomyocytes: shorter APD0 provoked shorter APD+1, and previous DI has a similar effect on APD+1. Independent prediction using both APD0 and DI was found to provide a far better estimation of APD+1 values, compared to relying on DI alone (p<<0.01). Finally, the CA models were able to replicate reentrant patterns and cycle lengths of different states of atrial remodeling with a high degree of accuracy when compared to biophysical simulations. Overall, the use of atrial CA with short-term memory allows accurate reproduction of arrhythmic behavior in pathological tissue within a clinically relevant timeframe.Clinical Relevance- Discrete electrophysiological models simulate pathological self-sustained arrhythmias in diagnostic times.

Abstract
Patients that have suffered a myocardial infarction are at high risk of developing ventricular tachycardia. Patient stratification is often determined by characterization of the underlying myocardial substrate by cardiac imaging methods. In this study, we show that computer modeling of cardiac electrophysiology based on personalized fast 3D simulations can help to assess patient risk to arrhythmia. We perform a large simulation study on 21 patient digital twins and reproduce successfully the clinical outcomes. In addition, we provide the sites which are prone to sustain ventricular tachycardias, i.e, onset sites around the scar region, and validate if they colocalize with exit sites from slow conduction channels.Clinical relevance- Fast electrophysiological simulations can provide advanced patient stratification indices and predict arrhythmic susceptibility to suffer from ventricular tachycardia in patients that have suffered a myocardial infarction.

Abstract
PURPOSE Caplacizumab was licensed for acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (aTTP) based on prospective controlled trials. Real-world evidence is crucial in rare diseases. We aim to describe a patient population with aTTP, receiving caplacizumab in a real-world setting, reporting their outcomes, including safety and tolerability, and contrasting them with a historical cohort from our center. METHODS We describe data collected retrospectively from 2012 to 2022 for 16 patients with aTTP (8 received caplacizumab and 8 the historical standard-of-care). Patients' characteristics and outcomes were compared between groups. RESULTS Patients' demographic and baseline characteristics were similar in both groups. Caplacizumab led to a rapid normalization of the platelet count of 3.5 (IQR, 2-6) versus 16 (IQR, 9.5-23.5) days in the historical cohort: (p = .002). The median number of plasma exchanges and the length of days requiring them, between the caplacizumab group versus the historical cohort, was 6 (IQR, 6-10) versus 19.5 (IQR, 12.5-29.5) plasma exchanges (p = .006); and 9 (IQR, 8.5-13.5) versus 22 (15-31) days (p = .049), respectively. There were no refractory cases in the caplacizumab group in comparison with 37.5 % in the historical cohort. None of patients treated with caplacizumab experienced a recurrence after 1081 (IQR, 511-3125) days of follow-up. Safety was in line with data reported in clinical trials, with mild adverse events (mostly grade≤2). CONCLUSION We provided real-world evidence in the treatment of aTTP, confirming the results obtained in clinical trials. Caplacizumab reduced the time to platelet count recovery and the number and length of plasma exchanges.

Abstract
Hemotherapy is the treatment of diseases by the use of blood or blood products from blood donation (by others of for oneself). It is clear that blood components transfusion represents the most important part of the activities of the professionals (doctors, nurses, technicians…) working in hemotherapy. But there are others forms of hemotherapy that are steadily growing, that we will discuss: plasma exchange, mononuclear cells collections for cellular therapies, extracorporeal photoapheresis, ABO antigen specific immunoadsorption and autologous platelet lysate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune check-point blockade (ICB) has shown clinical benefit in mismatch repair-deficient/microsatellite instability high metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) but not in mismatch repair-proficient/microsatellite stable patients. Cancer vaccines with autologous dendritic cells (ADC) could be a complementary therapeutic approach to ICB as this combination has the potential to achieve synergistic effects. METHODS This was a Phase I/II multicentric study with translational sub-studies, to evaluate the safety, pharmacodynamics and anti-tumor effects of Avelumab plus ADC vaccine in heavily pre-treated MSS mCRC patients. Primary objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose and the efficacy of the combination. The primary end-point was 40% progression-free survival at 6 months with a 2 Simon Stage. RESULTS A total of 28 patients were screened and 19 pts were included. Combined therapy was safe and well tolerated. An interim analysis (Simon design first-stage) recommended early termination because only 2/19 (11%) patients were disease free at 6 months. Median PFS was 3.1 months [2.1-5.3 months] and overall survival was 12.2 months [3.2-23.2 months]. Stimulation of immune system was observed in vitro but not clinically. The evaluation of basal RNA-seq noted significant changes between pre and post-therapy liver biopsies related to lipid metabolism and transport, inflammation and oxidative stress pathways. CONCLUSIONS The combination of Avelumab plus ADC vaccine is safe and well tolerated but exhibited modest clinical activity. Our study describes, for the first-time, a de novo post-therapy metabolic rewiring, that could represent novel immunotherapy-induced tumor vulnerabilities.

Food and feed contamination by nonlegislated mycotoxins beauvericin (BEA) and enniatin B (ENB) is a worldwide health concern in the present. The principal objective of this work is to assess some of the existing protocols to discover the single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in transcriptomic data obtained by RNA-seq from Jurkat cells in vitro samples individually exposed to BEA and ENB at three concentration levels (1.5, 3 and 5 µM). Moreover, previous transcriptomic results will be compared with new findings obtained using a different protocol. SNVs rs201003509 in BEA exposed cells and the rs36045790 in ENB were found in the differentially expressed genes in all doses compared to controls by means of the Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK) Best Practices workflow. SNV-RNA-seq complementary pipeline did not show any SNV. Concerning gene expression, discrepant results were found for 1.5 µM BEA exposed cells compared with previous findings. However, 354 overlapped differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in the three ENB concentrations used, with 147 matches with respect to the 245 DEGs found in the previous results. In conclusion, the two discovery SNVs protocols based on variant calling from RNA-seq used in this work displayed very different results and there were SNVs found manually not identified by any pipeline. Additionally, the new gene expression analysis reported comparable but non identical DEGs to the previous transcriptomic results obtained from these RNA-seq data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Data about collection efficiency 1 (CE1), which takes into account blood cell counts before and after collection, thus providing a more accurate estimate, in the collection of autologous T lymphocytes by apheresis for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells remain scarce. We evaluated donor- and procedure-related characteristics that might influence the CE1 of lymphocytes. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed all mononuclear cell (MNC) collections) performed for CAR T-cell manufacturing in our institution from May 2017 to June 2021 in adult patients. Age, gender, weight, total blood volume (TBV), prior haematopoietic cell transplant, diagnosis, days between last treatment and apheresis, pre-collection cell counts, duration of apheresis, TBV processed, vascular access, inlet flow and device type were analysed as potential factors affecting CE1 of lymphocytes. RESULTS A total of 127 autologous MNC collections were performed on 118 patients diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (n = 53, 45%), non-Hodgkin lymphoma (n = 40, 34%), multiple myeloma (n = 19, 16%), and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (n = 6, 5%). The median CE1 of lymphocytes was 47% (interquartile range: 32%-65%). In multiple regression analysis, Amicus device was associated with higher CE1 of lymphocytes (p = 0.01) and lower CE1 of platelets (p < 0.01) when compared with Optia device. CONCLUSION The knowledge of the MNC and lymphocyte CE1 of each apheresis device used to collect cells for CAR T therapy, together with the goal of the number of cells required, is essential to define the volume to be processed and to ensure the success of the collection.

Abstract
According to the literature, there are significant differences in the availability of education and training in transfusion medicine worldwide, with significant heterogeneity in the existing curricula. Recognising the need for education with the aim of achieving globally standardised competencies in transfusion medicine, a group of experts collaborating in the European and Mediterranean Initiative in Transfusion medicine (EMITm) proposed a process of incremental training and education. Subsequent to two previous papers published by this group on general education in transfusion medicine, this paper specifically refers to the field of education in haemovigilance. This topic is of particular importance when one considers the role of haemovigilance in improving the safety of transfusion practice, and the fact that this role can only be realised through the cooperation of all participants in the transfusion chain. In addition to promoting the importance of education in haemovigilance, this paper provides an overview of the available literature on this topic and proposes an education programme on haemovigilance for medical students and residents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Calculation of blood volume (BV) to be processed to achieve the target number of CD34+ cells can be accomplished by using collection efficiency 2 (CE2) formula. Our aim was to develop a BV web formula. MATERIALS AND METHODS We calculated CE2 from aphereses performed between January 2015 and March 2020 in allogeneic donors and patients. From May 2020 to May 2021, we validated a formula: BV = ((Target CD34+ cells in the product)/(CD34+ pre-apheresis cells × CE2)) × 100. Subsequently, we compared the outcome of the procedures carried out before formula implementation (pre-formula), when standard three total BV collection was performed. RESULTS CE2 was assessed in 384 apheresis procedures before formula implementation. CE2 was higher in allogeneic donors than in patients (53% ± 17% vs. 48% ± 15%, p = 0.008). CE2 was higher in multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma than Hodgkin's lymphoma (48% ± 15%, 48% ± 15% and 42% ± 13%, respectively; p = 0.008). Our formula (available on a website: Publisheet) was prospectively used in 54 individuals. The formula was very accurate: predicted versus observed CD34 + cells/kg collected had an r-value of 0.89 (p < 0.0001). We compared their results with 78 pre-formula individuals. In the post-formula group, a greater BV was processed in patients and less BV in allogeneic donors. Among individuals under 60 years of age, it was significantly less frequent than the need for more than one apheresis in the post-formula group. CONCLUSION Formula calculations were accurate. Formula implementation allowed the optimization of the procedures and reduced the rate of individuals in need of apheresis for more than 1 day.

Abstract
Since its emergence in the early 1990s, hemovigilance has gradually evolved from a blood safety concept focused on surveillance of adverse reactions and events in patients, to a well-defined system that monitors the entire transfusion chain and improves its safety. The importance of hemovigilance has been recognized globally in a relatively short time, but the level of its implementation varies significantly between countries. The cooperation of international organizations has significantly contributed to the promotion, implementation, and education in this field. Thanks to initiatives taken, the safety of transfusion practice has been improved in many segments, primarily related to the risks of adverse events in recipients of blood components. In parallel with changing transfusion practice, the hemovigilance process has also matured. In addition to the reduction of existing risks and the early detection of emerging risks, hemovigilance has also embraced the principles of patient blood management. Research in hemovigilance is more increasingly focused on specific categories of patients, specific blood components and methods of their preparation, rare reactions, and transfusion efficacy and efficiency. A proactive approach and use of big data can play an important role in achieving these goals. Additional and sustained efforts should be made to prevent underreporting of events and to improve data comparability through clear definitions and grading systems. This review provides a historical overview of hemovigilance and its achievements, current challenges, and future plans.

Abstract
Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) is an immunomodulatory therapy based on the infusion of autologous cellular products exposed to ultraviolet light (UV) in the presence of a photosensitizer. The study evaluates the ECP efficacy as induction therapy in a full-mismatch kidney transplant rat model. Dark Agouti to Lewis (DA-L) kidney transplant model has been established. ECP product was obtained from Lewis rat recipients after DA kidney graft transplantation (LewDA). Leukocytes of those LewDA rats were exposed to 8-methoxy psoralen, and illuminated with UV-A. The ECP doses assessed were 10 × 106 and 100 × 106 cells/time point. Lewis recipients received seven ECP infusions. DA-L model was characterized by the appearance of donor-specific antibodies (DSA) and kidney function deterioration from day three after kidney transplant. The dysfunction progressed rapidly until graft loss (6.1 ± 0.5 days). Tacrolimus at 0.25 mg/kg prolonged rat survival until 11.4 ± 0.7 days (p = 0.0004). In this context, the application of leukocytes from LewDA sensitized rats accelerated the rejection (8.7 ± 0.45, p = 0.0012), whereas ECP product at high dose extended kidney graft survival until 26.3 ± 7.3 days, reducing class I and II DSA in surviving rats. ECP treatment increases kidney graft survival in full-mismatch rat model of acute rejection and is a suitable immunomodulatory therapy to be explored in kidney transplantation.

Abstract
<b><i>Background:</i></b> The major drug regulatory agencies have approved chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells for the treatment of some B-cell lymphoproliferative diseases. Their use is expanding, and new indications will be approved. Efficient mononuclear cell collection by apheresis providing enough T cells is a critical step in further CAR T-cell manufacturing process. It is important that apheresis units are prepared for the collection of the required T cells for manufacturing with the highest efficiency and safety for the patient. <b><i>Summary:</i></b> Several series have studied different characteristics that could influence the collection efficiency of T cells for CAR T-cell manufacturing. Also, an effort has been made to identify predictors of the total number of target cells collected. Despite these publications and the large number of ongoing clinical trials, consensus protocols in apheresis are scarce. <b><i>Key Messages:</i></b> The aim of this review was to summarize the set of measures described to optimize apheresis and ensure patient safety. Moreover, we also propose, in a practical approach, a way to apply this knowledge to the daily routine in the apheresis unit.

This study investigates the incidence and predictors for bacterial bloodstream infection (BSI) in 330 adults undergoing allo-HCT, and explores the effect of post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCY) on the probability of presenting this complication. All patients received levofloxacin during the aplastic phase. Only the first episode of BSI was counted as an event. Patients were classified into 2 groups: PTCY-based (n = 200) versus other prophylaxis (n = 130). One hundred twenty-four patients were diagnosed with a first episode of BSI, most of them during the first 30 days (70.2%). Proportions of BSIs caused by Gram-positive bacteria were comparable to those caused by Gram-negative bacteria (48.3% versus 45.9%). The cumulative incidence of BSI was higher in patients receiving PTCY than in those receiving other prophylaxis (days 30 and 100: 35.0% and 37.0% versus 13.1% and 18.5%, P < .001). At day 30, the likelihood of BSI was 2.41 (P = .012) times higher in the PTCY group than in the non-PTCY group. The 30-day mortality rate in all patients with BSI was 8.0%, lower (P = .002) in the PTCY group (2.3%) than in the non-PTCY group (21.6%). Finally, the overall survival of patients receiving PTCY and diagnosed with BSI was similar to that of patients without presenting this complication. © 2023 American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation.

Abstract
This Guide for Living Donor Kidney Transplantation (LDKT) has been prepared with the sponsorship of the Spanish Society of Nephrology (SEN), the Spanish Transplant Society (SET), and the Spanish National Transplant Organization (ONT). It updates evidence to offer the best chronic renal failure treatment when a potential living donor is available. The core aim of this Guide is to supply clinicians who evaluate living donors and transplant recipients with the best decision-making tools, to optimise their outcomes. Moreover, the role of living donors in the current KT context should recover the level of importance it had until recently. To this end the new forms of incompatible HLA and/or ABO donation, as well as the paired donation which is possible in several hospitals with experience in LDKT, offer additional ways to treat renal patients with an incompatible donor. Good results in terms of patient and graft survival have expanded the range of circumstances under which living renal donors are accepted. Older donors are now accepted, as are others with factors that affect the decision, such as a borderline clinical history or alterations, which when evaluated may lead to an additional number of transplantations. This Guide does not forget that LDKT may lead to risk for the donor. Pre-donation evaluation has to centre on the problems which may arise over the short or long-term, and these have to be described to the potential donor so that they are able take them into account. Experience over recent years has led to progress in risk analysis, to protect donors' health. This aspect always has to be taken into account by LDKT programmes when evaluating potential donors. Finally, this Guide has been designed to aid decision-making, with recommendations and suggestions when uncertainties arise in pre-donation studies. Its overarching aim is to ensure that informed consent is based on high quality studies and information supplied to donors and recipients, offering the strongest possible guarantees.

Abstract
This work analyses the fatigue delamination and fracture stress behaviour under mode I of adhesive joints made on an epoxy matrix composite material with unidirectional carbon fibre reinforcement and a commercial epoxy-based adhesive. DCB type tests (for mode I) were used with the aim to quantify the influence of the period of exposure to a degradation process in a salt spray chamber, to which the tested samples were subjected, on their fatigue behaviour. For this purpose and after a previous static characterisation of the material in which the critical values of the energy release rate for different exposure periods were determined, the levels of the energy release rate to be applied in the fatigue tests and the exposure periods to be considered (no exposure, exposure during one week and twelve weeks) and a ratio of fatigue stress levels of R = Gmin/Gmax = 0.1 were defined. From this experimental data, the G-N fatigue initiation curves and the G-da/dN growth curves were obtained. The experimental data obtained, in the fatigue initiation phase of the delamination process, have been treated by means of a probabilistic model based on a Weibull distribution, the application of models of these characteristics has allowed a better interpretation of the experimental results obtained. The most relevant result of the work is that, in general, the fatigue limits obtained for the adhesive joint, under mode I fracture, when subjected to a degradation process in a saline environment, do not translate into a relevant loss of its resistance capacity against this fatigue delamination phenomenon, in its initiation phase. On the other hand, the crack growth rates of the material subjected to different periods of exposure to a saline environment are similar and higher than those obtained for the material without exposure.

Abstract
Autologous cell immunotherapy using B cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells is an effective novel treatment for multiple myeloma (MM). This therapy has only been used for relapsed and refractory patients, at which stage the endogenous T cells used to produce the CAR-T cells are affected by the immunosuppressive nature of advanced MM and/or side effects of previous therapies. An alternative pool of "fitter" T cells is found in leukocytoapheresis products that are routinely collected to obtain hematopoietic progenitor cells for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) early in the treatment of MM. However, to mobilize the progenitor cells, patients are dosed with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), which is reported to adversely affect T cell proliferation, function, and differentiation. Here, we aimed to first establish whether G-CSF treatment negatively influences T cell phenotype and to ascertain whether previous exposure of T cells to G-CSF is deleterious for anti-BCMA CAR-T cells. We observed that G-CSF had a minimal impact on T cell phenotype when added in vitro or administered to patients. Moreover, we found that CAR-T cell fitness and anti-tumor activity were unaffected when generated from G-CSF-exposed T cells. Overall, we showed that ASCT apheresis products are a suitable source of T cells for anti-BCMA CAR-T cell manufacture.

Abstract
The beneficial effect of fermented whey and pumpkin extract rich in carotenoids was evaluated in Jurkat cells against aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and ochratoxin A (OTA) cytotoxicity through a proteomic approach. The functional ingredients were added into mycotoxin contaminated bread formulation, which were digested in vitro in order to simulate human intestinal absorption. Cell cultures were exposed during 7 days to these mycotoxins dissolved in: (a) 0.1% organic solvent (DMSO), (b) an intestinal digest of bread with pumpkin individually (PID) and (c) an intestinal digest of bread with pumpkin mixed with fermented whey (PID+WF). Extracted proteins were subjected to reduction and alkylation and subsequently a tryptic digestion in order to be analysed by liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time of flight (LC/MS-Q-TOF). Results obtained highlighted the beneficial role of functional ingredients employed through the identification of proteins involved in several biological processes and metabolic pathways, mainly antioxidant activity, nucleosome assembly and secretory senescence phenotype. Among proteins involved in antioxidant activity, peroxiredoxin 1 and 2 stand out. Comparing the different conditions investigated, a remarkable change was observed in their expression, ranging from a repression using the standard (DMSO 0.1%), to an overexpression when treated with the functional ingredients. Similarly, after PID and PID+WF treatment, histones’ expression implicated in the metabolic pathway of nucleosome assembly, such as H2A, H2B, H2C, H3 and H4, was increased. Furthermore, the expression of protein cyclin A2, which downregulation is involved in limiting carcinogenic cells growth, was lower in presence of both functional ingredients. Based on these findings, functional ingredients can act as protectors against genomic stress caused by mycotoxins, preventing the loss of vital cell functions and paralysing the growth of carcinogenic cells.

Abstract
Cryopreservation was recommended to ensure continuity in allogeneic hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) transplantation during the COVID-19 pandemic. Several groups have shown no impact on clinical outcomes for patients who underwent HPC transplantation with cryopreserved products during the first months of this pandemic. However, concerns about quality control attributes after cryopreservation have been raised. We investigated, in 155 allogeneic peripheral blood cryopreserved HPC, leukocytapheresis characteristics influencing viable CD34+ and CD3+ cells, and CFU-GM recoveries after thawing. Collection characteristics such as volume, nucleated cells (NC)/mL and hematocrit correlated with viable CD34+ and CD3+ cells recoveries after thawing in univariate analysis but only CD3+ cells remained statistically significant in multivariate analysis (r2 = 0.376; P = < 0.001). Additionally, transit time also showed correlation with viable CD34+ (r2 = 0.186), CD3+ (r2 = 0.376) and CFU-GM recoveries (r2 = 0.212) in multivariate analysis. Thus, diluting leukocytapheresis below 200 × 106 NC/mL, avoiding red cells contamination above 2%, cryopreserving below 250 × 106 NC/mL and minimizing transit time below 36 h, prevented poor viable CD34+ and CD3+ cells, and CFU-GM recoveries. In summary, optimizing leukocytapheresis practices and minimizing transportation time may better preserve the quality attributes of HPC when cryopreservation is indicated.

Abstract
We evaluated outcomes of 18 patients with isolated extramedullary disease (iEMD) relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) treated with the CD19-directed CAR T cells ARI-0001 in two centers (adult and pediatric), including patients treated in the CART19-BE-01 trial and the consecutive compassionate use program. iEMD was detected by PET-CT in 78% (14/18), and/or by cerebrospinal fluid analysis in 28% (5/18). Patients received cyclophosphamide and fludarabine followed by 1 × 106 ARI-0001 cells/kg, initially as a single dose (first patient) and later split into three fractions (10%, 30%, and 60%). Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) occurred in 50% (9/18) of patients, with no cases of grade ≥3 CRS, and 1 case (6%) of grade 1 neurotoxicity. Tocilizumab was used in 6% of patients (1/18). Procedure-related mortality was 0% at 2 years. Objective responses were seen in 94% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 73%-99%) of patients, with complete responses (CR) seen in 78% (95% CI: 52%-94%) of them. Progression-free and overall survival were 49% (95% CI: 30%-79%) and 61% (95% CI: 40%-92%) at 2 years. In conclusion, the use of ARI-0001 cells in patients with R/R ALL and iEMD was associated with a safety and efficacy profile that is comparable with what is observed in patients with marrow involvement and in line with other CART19 products.

Abstract
The risk of mortality in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is largely related to an excessive immune response, resulting in a hyperinflammatory and hypercoagulable condition collectively referred to as cytokine storm syndrome (CSS). Management of critically ill patients with COVID-19 has included attempts to abate this process, prevent disease progression, and reduce mortality. In this context, therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) offers an approach to eliminate inflammatory factors and cytokines, offset the pathologic coagulopathy, and reduce the CSS effects. The aim of this review is to analyze available data on the use of TPE for the treatment of CSS in patients with COVID-19. Systematic searches of PubMed, Scopus and COVID-19 Research were conducted to identify articles published between March 1, 2020 and May 26, 2021 reporting the use of TPE for the treatment of COVID-19-induced CSS. A total of 34 peer-reviewed articles (1 randomized controlled trial, 4 matched case-control series, 15 single-group case series, and 14 case reports), including 267 patients, were selected. Despite the low evidence level of the available data, TPE appeared to be a safe intervention for critically ill patients with COVID-19-induced CSS. Although inconsistencies exist between studies, they showed a general trend for decreased interleukin-6, C-reactive protein, ferritin, D-dimer, and fibrinogen levels and increased lymphocyte counts following TPE, supporting the immunomodulatory effect of this treatment. Moreover, TPE was associated with improvements in clinical outcomes in critically ill patients with COVID-19. While TPE may offer a valuable option to treat patients with COVID-19-induced CSS, high-quality randomized controlled clinical trials are needed to confirm its potential clinical benefits, feasibility, and safety. Moreover, clear criteria should be established to identify patients with CSS who might benefit from TPE.

Abstract
CART19 cells are emerging as an alternative therapy for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Here we report the outcome of nine consecutive patients with CLL treated with ARI-0001 CART19 cells, six of them with Richter’s transformation (RT). One patient with RT never received therapy. The cytokine release syndrome rate was 87.5% (12.5% grade ≥3). Neurotoxicity was not observed in any patient. All patients experienced absolute B-cell aplasia, and seven (87.5%) responded to therapy. With a median follow-up of 5.6 months, two patients with RT experienced a CD19-negative relapse. In conclusion, ARI-0001 cell therapy was feasible, safe, and effective in patients with high-risk CLL or RT.

Abstract
The immunomodulatory effects of extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) have been used for the treatment of T-cell mediated disorders, such as rejection in organ transplantation. Currently, it is an established therapy for heart and lung rejection, but not for kidney transplantation (KT), where experience is limited. In addition, some data suggest that ECP could generate an immune response against infections, thus being an alternative for the treatment of rejection in case of active or high-risk of infection. In the present study, we analyze four cases of use of ECP as concomitant therapy in patients with KT and high risk of opportunistic infections due to the high burden of immunosuppression throughout their renal diseases. Two patients had concomitant viral infection (cytomegalovirus and BK virus, respectively) and three patients were on treatment for graft rejection. In the two patients with active viral infection, the infection was successfully controlled during ECP treatment. In all cases, ECP has been shown to be a safe procedure, without complications.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) remains incurable despite the number of novel therapies that have become available in recent years. Occasionally, a patient with MM will develop an amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis with organ dysfunction. Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CART) therapy has become a promising approach in treating hematological malignancies. Our institution has developed a second-generation B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)–CART which is currently being tested in a clinical trial for relapsed/refractory MM. We present the first reported case, to our knowledge, of a patient with AL amyloidosis and renal involvement in the course of an MM, successfully treated with CART therapy targeting BCMA. The patient received a fractioned dose of 3×106/kg BCMA–CARTs after lymphodepletion. At 3 months from infusion, the patient had already obtained a deep hematological response with negative measurable residual disease by flow cytometry in the bone marrow. After 12 months, the patient remains in hematological stringent complete remission and has achieved an organ renal response with a decrease of 70% of proteinuria. This case suggests that concomitant AL amyloidosis in the setting of MM can benefit from CART therapy, even in patients in which predominant symptoms at the time of treating are caused by AL amyloidosis.

Abstract
Background: Despite recent advances in immunosuppression treatment, antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) remains the leading cause of kidney graft loss. Information about prognostic markers and the efficacy of treatment is scarce. Methods: Retrospective study with kidney recipients diagnosed an active ABMR from January 1, 2004 to December 31, 2019 to explore the influence of persistent inflammation in follow-up biopsies on graft survival after ABMR treatment. Results: About 116 patients were included. Active ABMR were treated with a combination of plasma exchange (PE), intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg), rituximab, and steroids. At 6 months of treatment, 63 (54.3%) patients presented a stabilization or improvement in kidney-graft function. The effectiveness varied depending on the timepoint of the presentation between transplantation and rejection, which is lower for those with late ABMR (63 vs. 21% for early vs. late ABMR, respectively). Ninety patients (77%) underwent a control biopsy after ABMR treatment, from which 46 (51%) responded to the treatment. Microvascular inflammation (MVI) persisted in 64 (71%) biopsies, whereas tubulitis persisted in 17 (19%) biopsies. Death-censored graft survival at 1 year was significantly lower in patients with persistent MVI (86% vs. 95% without persistent MVI, P = 0.002), or with persistent tubulitis (44% vs. 66% without tubulitis, P = 0.02). In the Cox Regression analysis, the persistence of MVI [hazard ratio (HR), 4.50 (95%CI, 1.35–14.96), P = 0.01] and tubulitis [HR 2.88 95%CI (1.24–6.69), P = 0.01) in follow-up biopsies significantly increased the risk of graft failure. Conclusion: Persistent inflammation in follow-up biopsies after ABMR treatment was associated with an increased risk of graft loss, even without meeting Banff rejection criteria.

Abstract
Microbial fermentation with lactic acid bacteria (LAB) is a natural food biopreservation method. Yellow mustard and milk whey are optimum substrates for LAB fermentation. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the bioaccessibility and bioavailability of bioactive compounds from yellow mustard flour and milk whey both with and without LAB fermentation. All extracts were subjected to a simulated digestion process. Total polyphenols, DL-3-phenyllactic acid (PLA), lactic acid, and the antioxidant activity were determined in the studied matrices before and after simulated digestion. Yellow mustard flour was significantly richer in total polyphenols, whereas significantly higher concentrations of PLA and lactic acid were observed in milk whey. Similar antioxidant activity was determined in both ingredients being in all cases strongly reduced after in vitro digestion. Higher bioaccessibility was found for polyphenols and PLA in milk whey. Transepithelial transport of total polyphenols was higher in yellow mustard flour compared to milk whey, reaching bioavailability values between 3-7% and 1-2%, respectively. PLA transepithelial transport was only significant in both fermented matrices with bioavailability around 4-6%. Transepithelial transport of lactic acid reached values of 31-34% (bioavailability ∼ 22%) and 15-78% (bioavailability ∼ 3%) in milk whey and yellow mustard flour, respectively. LAB fermentation showed beneficial effects on enriching extracts with PLA, lactic acid, and antioxidant activity, as well as increasing bioaccessibility of these acids in yellow mustard flour and total polyphenol bioavailability in milk whey. Results pointed to yellow mustard flour and milk whey as natural preservative ingredients used in the food industry, especially when fermented with LAB.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Should we consider embryo quality as one of the most important criteria to follow when transferring a mosaic embryo?
Summary answer
Embryo quality is an implantation biomarker both for euploid and mosaic embryos, and also a determinant for selecting the most eligible mosaic for transfer.
What is known already
Several studies show the benefit of transferring mosaic embryos when there are no euploid embryos to transfer, and they still result in ongoing pregnancies and what is more important is that they result in healthy babies.
Studies and guidelines suggest prioritizing mosaic embryos based on maternal age, chromosomes impacted, percentage of aneuploidy, number of chromosomes involved, type of mosaic (simple vs complex, segmental vs complete, monosomy vs trisomy) but embryo quality is never part of these criteria.
Studies claim that mosaic implantation rate is lower than euploid embryos, but they never show if both populations are comparable in terms of quality.
Study design, size, duration
This is a retrospective observational study performed in a private centre between February 2018 and January 2020. The study includes the data analysis of 96 euploid blastocysts and 14 low risk mosaic blastocysts (defining low risk regarding chromosome syndromes and less than 50% level mosaicism). All transferred in single embryo transfer (SET) to 105 patients after PGT-A (mean maternal age 38,9 years).
The SET factor enables us to track the implantation outcome of all embryos.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
PGT-A with NGS technology was offered to patients of advanced maternal age and/or with repeated IVF failures. Trophectoderm biopsies were performed on day 5 and/or day 6 embryos, with laser assistance. Blastocyst morphology was scored in 3 groups: A: excellent (AA, AB, BA), B: good (BB), C: average and poor-quality embryos (BC, CB, CC). (Gardner-Schoolcraft classification)
Low risk mosaic embryo transfer was offered to patients with no euploid embryos to transfer.
Main results and the role of chance
We found no significant differences between both populations (euploid and mosaic embryos) in terms of embryo quality (Chi^2 p-value =0,0975) so we were able to compare the overall implantation of similar quality populations.
Despite euploid implantation being higher as described in most studies, no statistical differences (Chi^2 p-value = 0,4344) were found in terms of implantation rates between mosaic (57,0%) and euploid (67,6%) blastocysts during the same period. There are no differences between the mean age of both groups (39,7 vs 38,8 years, respectively).
The implantation rates for euploid blastocysts were 79,5% (n = 39), 62,7% (n = 51) and 33,3% (n = 6) in the A, B and C blastocyst quality groups, respectively, showing significative differences among the three groups.
The implantation rates of low-risk mosaic blastocysts were 100% (n = 3), 62,5% (n = 8) and 0,0% (n = 3) in the A, B and C blastocyst morphology groups, respectively, showing also still significant differences among the three groups despite the small population. (Chi^2 p-values according to implantation: Euploid =0,0434; Mosaic=0,0419)
We have also compared the three quality categories between both populations showing no significative differences (Chi^2 p-values according to quality: A = 0,4344; B = 0,9894; C = 0,2568), concluding that same quality embryos behave the same way despite being euploid or mosaic.
Limitations, reasons for caution
The study is limited by its retrospective nature and the low number of mosaic embryos transferred as they are the last option for transfer. Additionally, it is common to transfer more than one mosaic embryo to increase the chances of pregnancy, therefore losing implantation track.
Wider implications of the findings: Embryo quality has always been a strong biomarker predictable for implantation and this is also true for mosaic embryos as well. It is a simple concept, but we cannot compare implantation potential of euploid embryos with mosaic embryos without describing both populations in terms of quality.
