Great start to 2021 for team @sehgalpathlab for having their B-MRD paper published today in @PHOJournal. Special thanks to Reviewer 2 for all his efforts in improving the article and taking it to the next level @DrGauravNarula
Very happy to share our paper published in PediatricHematologyOncologyJournal today on our experience of MRD detection in B-ALL.https://t.co/oaH24EGI0i We describe various factors which impact sensitivity of MRD assay & highlight the need for standardisation of B-MRD assay

Diabetes doesn’t always begin loudly.
Sometimes, your body whispers first.
Constant fatigue.
Unusual thirst.
Slow healing.
Frequent cravings.
The signs may seem small-until they aren’t.
Early testing can make all the difference.
Get tested. Stay ahead.

The greatest mom? Every mom.
We asked kids about their moms and realized one thing: different moms, same unconditional love.
At Neuberg, we believe best way to honour that love is by protecting their health. Happy Mother’s Day to the heartbeat of every home!

Many of us misunderstand KMT2A leukemia.
FDA says “translocation”—biology says fusion.
FISH ≠ partner. DNA panels miss it.
Only KMT2Ar responds.
Break-apart tells you that.
RNA tells you what.
Biology tells you if it matters.
TP53 in MDS is not binary.
It’s a spectrum.
And we’re oversimplifying it !
Large SCT dataset confirms:
• TP53-mut = adverse
• “Biallelic” = worst
Important work.
But the biology is more nuanced.
Monoallelic TP53?
Bad.
But how bad?
We all have long-term SCT survivors →
👉 suggests residual function / heterogeneity
True biallelic (multi-hit)?
• Functional TP53 loss
• Genomic instability
• Near chemo-resistant state
👉 Very difficult to rescue, even with SCT
But here’s the issue:
“Biallelic” often defined as VAF >50%
👉 Useful shortcut
👉 Not biology
VAF >50% ≠ biallelic
VAF reflects:
• Tumor purity
• Clonal dominance
• Copy number
A dominant monoallelic clone
can look like “50%”
More importantly:
👉 What if TP53 is a 10% subclone?
Different biology:
• Less genomic dominance
• Less clonal fitness
👉 GVL may still control this
So TP53-mut disease is not one entity:
• Monoallelic dominant
• True multi-hit
• Small subclonal TP53
➡️ Different biology
➡️ Different outcomes
Retrospective studies like this are critical
—but limited by simplified definitions
TP53 is a spectrum
VAF is not allelic state
True biallelic = genomic collapse
Subclonal TP53 → may be GVL-sensitive

Good health is built on small, everyday choices. So we asked our team to share the one habit they never skip. Because it’s these simple, consistent habits that quietly build long-term health and wellbeing.
Tell us one health habit you never skip in the comments below.
Instead of guessing online, let the right test guide you. Dr Prajwal explains why the Lipoprotein (a) test is important, especially for understanding inherited heart risk and taking timely preventive steps.
