Sentence examples for for serous cases from inspiring English sources

The comparison of genotype frequencies (P-heterogeneity) between cases and controls and the genotype specific risks for serous cases in the combined dataset are presented in Table 2.

This two-marker combination yielded sensitivities at 98% specificity of 72% for all cases and 86% for serous cases only, compared to sensitivities at 98% specificity for MUC16 alone of 70% (all cases) and 86% (serous cases).

The performance of the MUC16/WFDC2 combination marker clearly varied with ovarian cancer histology: the percentage of cases correctly classified was 86% (38/44) for serous cases, 83% (5/6) for endometrioid cases, 17% (1/6) for mucinous cases and 0% (0/5) for clear cell cases (Table 5).

However, there remained an association between non-serous histologies and HNPCC mutations, which was likely underestimated because of the lower numbers of serous cases within the data set.

In general, genotype specific risks were similar between serous only cases and all cases combined, although there were slightly increased risks in serous cases for the rare alleles of rs4988344 (P trend = 0.008) and rs2378908 (P-trend = 0.015) (Table 2).

To investigate whether this was true for other lymphocyte markers, we analyzed an additional cohort of 220 high-grade serous cases from patients known to have macroscopic residual disease following primary cytoreductive surgery.

We re-analyzed this data focusing exclusively on high-grade serous cases.

For the seven markers evaluated in the Triage set, we tested all markers in combinations of either two or three, and compared individuals without cancer to all ovarian cancer patients or serous cases only.

The frequency of MAP2K4 homozygous inactivation was 5.6% overall, and 9.8% in high-grade serous cases.

(data not shown) Our results of the case control analyses suggest that there were differences in some risk factors for invasive serous PPC and EOC cases including a woman's age at last pregnancy, tubal ligation and family history of breast cancer.

We report concordance between FS and definitive histology in 60.2% of the cases (over 70% for serous and about 50% for mucinous histotypes).
