TL;DR: The combined use of measurements of TS and DPD mRNA levels using real-time RT-PCR analyses may provide an indication of the selective cytoxicity of 5-FU on thymoma.

TL;DR: The completely exclusive status of this mutation and others, including EGFR, Kas, erbB2 and NRF2L2, is likely to improve the selection of personalized therapy for lung cancer.

TL;DR: It is indicated that a T category upgrade is prognostically adequate for patients who are PLC-positive, which was significantly associated with a higher incidence of adenocarcinoma and advanced disease.

TL;DR: A 49-year-old female patient with obstructive respiratory problems demonstrated a true aneurysm with a diameter of 58 mm located at the right-sided aortic arch between the right carotid artery and right subclavian artery, the Kommerell's diverticulum, which is informative for consideration of the surgical approach toward aneurYSms of this entity.

TL;DR: The increased copy number of the Sox2 gene was analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction amplifications in 127 surgically treated non-small cell lung cancer cases from Nagoya City University Hospital, Japan and among the SCCs, the Sox1 copy number status was not significantly correlated with gender, smoking status, pathological stage or differentiation status.
