Studies of the association between physical activity and breast cancer have yielded inconsistent findings. These findings may be related to a true null association or an inability to measure physical activity with enough precision to measure a protective relation. The authors reviewed and critiqued

## Lymph node imprint cytology for the rapid assessment of axillary node metastases in breast cancer Lymph node imprint cytology was performed on 86 nodes from 13 consecutive patients with breast cancer undergoing simple mastectomy with axillary node sampling, and a prospective comparison with par
## Abstract Glucocorticoid receptors have been detected in 90 human breast tumors and tumorβlike conditions by the immunoperoxidase method using a specific antibody against the glucocorticoid receptor isolated from rat thymocytes. In some of the specimens the [^3^H]βdexamethasone binding assay was
The most important diagnostic advance in the detection of bone metastases is the development of bone scanning techniques utilizing 85Sr and shorter lived isotopes. The main value of bone scanning is its use in screening for suspected occult bone metastases. In addition, it can assist in the differen
Possible measures to decrease breast-cancer mortality include prevention and improved treatment. Although there may be some strategies that can now be adopted for prevention, their effect will probably be delayed in time. Prevention is also difficult, since it may entail changes in life-style that w
