Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic significance of p53, angiogenesis, and other conventional features in operable breast cancer: subanalysis in node-positive and node-negative patients.

TL;DR: In the overall series p53 expression, IMD, nodal status, ER and PgR were statistically significant prognostic indicators for both relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in the final multivariate model.
Journal ArticleDOI

De-escalation of axillary surgery in early breast cancer

TL;DR: Indications for omission of completion axillary lymph node dissection in patients with two or fewer nodes containing macrometastases demand further clarification, together with the roles of preoperative imaging in defining axillary nodal burden, deselection of patients for sentinel lymph node biopsy, and provision of radiotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alteration of specific cytokine expression patterns in patients with breast cancer

TL;DR: A comprehensive analysis of 26 kinds of inflammatory cytokine expression patterns among 185 patients with breast cancer and 54 healthy volunteers followed by chemometric analysis identified the specific cytokine signature of metastatic patients compared to non-metastatic patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

High‐resolution imaging mass spectrometry reveals detailed spatial distribution of phosphatidylinositols in human breast cancer

TL;DR: This study documents a novel model for phospholipid analysis of breast cancer tissues by using high‐resolution MALDI IMS and identifies candidate PIs that can describe a specific phenotype of cancer cells.
