## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. The incidence of lymph node metastasis is high in patients who have pT3 gastric cancer. However, the impact of total retrieved lymph nodes (tLNs) on staging and survival of these patients is not clear. ## METHODS. For this study, the authors examined 1895 patients with
BACKGROUND: Pelvic lymph node metastasis (PLNM) is an important prognostic factor for patients with cervical carcinoma. The objective of this study was to identify a gene-expression signature that could predict PLNM in cervical carcinoma. METHODS: Eighty-eight women with cervical carcinoma with PLNM
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND: Log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS) is defined as the log of the ratio between the probability of being a positive lymph nodes and the probability of being a negative lymph nodes when one lymph node is retrieved. The value of LODDS staging system on prognostic asses
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Adjuvant therapy for women with T1โT2 breast carcinoma and 1โ3 positive lymph nodes is controversial due to discrepancies in reported baseline locoregional recurrence (LRR) risks. This inconsistency has been attributed to variations in lymph node staging techniques, which
We established gastric cancer-specific CD8 1 T-cell (T CD8 1) lines derived from different lymphocyte sources in the same patients by repeated stimulation with mitomycin-C-treated autologous tumor cells with low-dose interleukin-2, and we compared recognition patterns among the T CD8 1 derived from
