Thank you very much, dear Birgitta, for the information. This is precious.
I also registrated as "medical writer". Isn`t that right, that we are watching the talks and studying the slides/studies for medical purposes?
Also i watched the talk of Sekeres on combination therapy and want to communicate it to MDS-patients i know. The slides origin from studies/articles which are worth extra reading..
Actually i read much concerning Vitamin B12. There is a korean study recently published having found out that patients who had been diagnosed with MDS (RA, RSMD) responded to vitamin B12 substitution and the cytopenias disappeared. I could copy this study from our Viennese Library (did not want to buy it from the web). But then i found a comment which was made to it,which i can read in Vienna only from beginning of November in paper form, because i also do not want to buy it. It seems interesting. Too expensive to me to buy all these articles... Perhaps you have got the access now.
It is:
Acta Haematol. 2011;125(4):198-201. Epub 2011 Jan 20.
Vitamin B(12)-responsive pancytopenia mimicking myelodysplastic syndrome.
