One of the #ASH24 reunions I was most looking forward to 🙏🏼 Catch ups with Dr. Abid are good for the soul & every time I leave learning something new 🤓 Always such great career & life advice ❤️ Thanks for always making the time! @ash-hematology.bsky.social

Wearing my brand new @ash-hematology.bsky.social #bowtie on Sunday of #ASH24 🩸🩸 s/o to fellow bow tie enthusiast Dr. Al Hadidi for letting me know these bowties are in the store! I bought both versions 😍🎀 #fASHion

What a great Career Development Lunch yesterday meeting colleagues from all around the globe! Japan, Brazil, Colombia, and Sweden! #ASH24 @ash-hematology.bsky.social

So great finally meeting @kellymezamd.bsky.social in person! Love all the important work she has been doing with @Florez_Lab 🤩 #ASH24 @ash-hematology.bsky.social

We need more studies to investigate the complex mechanisms driving outcome disparities by sex and race in #AYA #AML pts! #ASH24 @ash-hematology.bsky.social

Fin.

As expected 5 year OS was worse for Black pts (HR: 1.24, 53% vs 61%).

However, this survival disparity did not improve over time! #ASH24 @ash-hematology.bsky.social

5 year OS FOR #AYA #AML patients improved significantly over time (HR: 0.69, 55% vs 66%)!

5 year OS was better for females (HR: 0.87, 58% vs 62%)

Both sexes showed improved survival over time but greater improvement for females! #ASH24 @ash-hematology.bsky.social

Black & male patients have been shown to have worse outcomes, but what are the trends in #AYA #AML #ASH24 @ash-hematology.bsky.social

Slide on financial toxicity of cancer care

Staggering statistics at #ASH24 #TreatingFairly

Patients with cancer who go bankrupt are nearly 80% more likely to die regardless of disease status.

Our system quite literally kills people.

Got to nerd out about #financialtoxicity #healthservices #globalhealth research in malignant hematology w/ HIP Med Student awardee Rachelle Monteau at the #ASH24 Career Development Bfast! Residencies look out for this superstar! Check out her oral tonight! #ASHKudos #ASHTrainee
