Gastric cancer is one of the cancers most associated with thromboembolic phenomena. The objective of this article is to study if there is a correlation between thromboembolic phenomena in gastric cancer and tumor expression of PDL-1. ⋯ In conclusion, the expression of PDL-1, and with it, of an inhibitory factor of the cellular immune response, correlates with a decrease in thromboembolic events in patients with gastric cancer, which could indicate the crucial role of the immune response in which thromboembolic events occur.

Real life experience of tafamidis for the treatment of Spanish patients with Val30Met transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy.
Tafamidis is the only approved transthyretin stabiliser approved for the treatment of variant transthyretin amyloidosis (A-ATTRv) related polyneuropathy (PNP). The aim of this study is to analyse the effectiveness of tafamidis in a real-world setting in Spain. ⋯ Our results reinforce the tafamidis efficacy to treat A-ATTRv-PNP if started early in the disease course. Patients with the V30M variant, NIS<15 and PND I are the most appropriate subjects for this treatment.
