Chemotherapy effects were determined employing operative specimens and we defined pCR as invasive nest disappearance based only on the primary breast tumour, i.e. without lymph node evaluation.
Chemotherapy effects were determined employing operative specimens and we defined pathological complete response (pCR) as invasive nest disappearance, based only on the primary breast tumour.
In conclusion, based on our study of a large population of adult skeletal specimens, we have defined a statistical Torg ratio for predicting LSS at each level.
Analysis of elafin expression in the normal fallopian tube revealed that the majority of specimens scored between four and six, therefore we defined elafin downregulation as any specimen scoring less than four.
Savigny did not designate any type specimen(s), so here we defined this species in the most simple and direct manner possible at this time.
We defined 49 specimens with scores 2 and 3 as positive expression and 43 with scores 0 and 1 as negative with FoxP3.
For these countries, we defined postpandemic specimens as those collected at least 2 weeks after the date on which 90% of 2009 laboratory notifications had occurred for the region.
We defined 11 specimens as acute SARS (AS) using the following criteria: (i) the whole blood RNA from a hospitalized patient was PCR positive for SARS-CoV, or (ii) the specimen was collected within 10 days after the disease onset in patients whose blood was later diagnosed ELISA-positive for anti-SARS IgG.
Previously[15], we defined BE progressor patients as BE subjects with either no dysplasia or LGD who later developed HGD or EAC, while progressor specimens were defined as any BE tissues obtained prior to the progression endpoint.
Therefore, according to the tree topologies and the divergence of COI and ITS2, we define the specimens in Clade 1, 2 and 3 as E. verticillata-1, E. verticillata-2 and E. verticillata-3.
