  Of note, the SM compartment is often involved in MC mediator-related symptoms such as recurrent syncope, headache, flushing, gastro-intestinal tract symptoms and, in severe cases, life-threatening anaphylactic shock. [orpha.net]

  The clinical signs of SIADH vary with the degree and rapidity of onset of hyponatremia, so that the patients can manifest nausea, anorexia, headache, fatigue, muscle cramps, lethargy, seizures, respiratory depression, coma [93]. [archivesofmedicine.com]

  Other toxicities that are associated with CAR T cell therapy include neurotoxicity, which can include headaches, confusion, hallucinations, dysphasia, ataxia, apraxia, facial nerve palsy, tremor, dysmetria, global encephalopathy, and even seizures [57 [jhoonline.biomedcentral.com]

The next step in the WHO classification is classifying recurrent genetic abnormalities seen in AML, because they correlate closely to prognosis The important ones are: • t(8;21) (q22;q22) [RUNX/RUNX1T1] o good prognosis • APML - t(15;17) (q22; q21) [PML [oneclass.com]

On this end, translocation t(12;21), in fact, is associated with a better prognosis, as most often seen in younger kids. This is a table looking at the types of chromosomes and the prognosis that they portend. [mdanderson.org]
