Inflammation and MPNs

This presentation by MPN specialist Dr Hans Hasselbalch from Denmark is of great interest to MPN patients.
Whilst the topic is inflammation, and the importance of reducing inflammation, Dr Hasselbalch’s talk is comprehensive.

He explains the latest MPN research findings, including the extraordinary discovery that 11.3% of stroke victims have the Jak2 mutation. He also reminds us of the huge numbers of undiagnosed MPN patients around the world and the possibility of targeting and eliminating the Jak2 mutation when it is in its early CHIP stage.
He explains about the risk of inflammatory bowel disease in MPN patients, the benefit of early intervention with interferon and even a potential role for statins for MPN patients, and so very much more.

His talk is available HERE.
