TL;DR: FISH allows reliable detection of erbB-2 gene amplification on FNA biopsies, and was strongly associated with positive erb B-2 immunostaining.

TL;DR: There was no increased prevalence of genetic changes in contralateral bronchial washings from patients with lung cancer compared with the control group and the quantity of previous smoking had no effect on the prevalence of chromosomal changes.

TL;DR: The appearance of tenascin is neither an indicator of malignancy nor predictive of invasiveness or metastasis but that it is related to local inflammatory response, and a significantly higher reticular and periepithelialTenascin expression was noted in cases with increased stromal inflammatory reaction.

TL;DR: Test the ability of multitarget fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for dissecting equivocal respiratory cytology into reactive and malignant categories and suggest that multitarget FISH in conjunction with automated relocation is a powerful approach for the elucidation of equvocal lung cytology.

TL;DR: The investigated nuclear proteins were not associated with overall survival in patients with invasive carcinomas and Cox stepwise‐regression analysis revealed regional lymph node status and depth of invasion to be independent parameters.
