Impact of the histologic grade of acute gastrointestinal graft-versus-host disease on outcomes in pediatric patients treated with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Abstract: IntroductionAcute gastrointestinal graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a common life-threatening complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT). We aimed to investigate outcomes according to the clinical, endoscopic, and histologic severity of gastrointestinal GVHD in pediatric patients treated with allogeneic HCT.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study included pediatric patients who underwent sufficient endoscopic and histopathologic evaluation for clinically suspected acute gastrointestinal… Show more

“…Thus, further prospective multicentre studies are needed to better characterise the variables affecting these changes and address the influence of microbiota-based therapeutics on allo-HSCT recipients. Moreover, given that some studies suggest that gastrointestinal GVHD is challenging to diagnose solely based on clinical symptoms, [ 52 , 53 ] a comprehensive approach, incorporating endoscopic and histological evaluations with microbiota assessment, should be employed.…”
