Safety of Biopsy in Pheochromocytoma and Paraganglioma: What a Global Study Found
This international study found that biopsy of pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma had low mortality and low serious complication rates, suggesting biopsy may be reasonable in carefully selected patients with expert management.

Early ctDNA MRD After Two Cycles Identifies Distinct Relapse Risk Groups in Advanced Hodgkin Lymphoma
In the GHSG HD21 trial, a validated ctDNA assay showed that MRD positivity after two treatment cycles strongly predicted inferior progression-free survival and improved early risk stratification, especially when combined with interim PET.

Why the cTnI/cTnT Ratio May Matter: A New Signal for Distinguishing Acute Necrotic From Chronic Myocardial Injury
A large multicohort and experimental study suggests the cTnI/cTnT ratio is biologically informative, separates acute from chronic myocardial injury, and modestly improves type 1 versus type 2 MI discrimination.

TP53 Multihit Does Not Fully Erase the Prognostic Advantage of Isolated del(5q) in Myelodysplastic Neoplasms
A multicenter retrospective study suggests that MDS with isolated del(5q) and TP53 multihit alterations has substantially better survival than other low-blast TP53-multihit MDS, challenging how this subgroup should be classified.

A Simple Five-Variable Index Helps Identify Excess Alcohol Use in Steatotic Liver Disease When PEth Testing Is Not Readily Available
A new five-component biomarker panel, MAPI, showed consistent AUROC performance of about 0.75 for detecting MetALD-ALD and may help triage confirmatory PEth testing in steatotic liver disease.

MRD Does Not Consistently Predict PFS Across Modern CLL Trials: Why Surrogacy Depends on Therapy, Duration, and Sample Source
A large meta-analysis shows MRD strongly predicts outcomes for individual patients with CLL, but is an inconsistent trial-level surrogate for progression-free survival, particularly with BTK inhibitor and venetoclax-based regimens.

Urinary Free Cortisol Thresholds Sharpen the Differential Diagnosis of ACTH-Dependent Cushing’s Syndrome
A Spanish multicenter validation study shows that urinary free cortisol expressed as multiples of the upper limit of normal can meaningfully stratify the likelihood of ectopic ACTH secretion versus Cushing’s disease.
