Article Synopsis
- - Professional engineering organizations (PEOs) help women and underrepresented minority (URM) engineering students build social connections that support their persistence in their studies and future careers.
- - A five-year study showed that URM students involved in PEOs were significantly more likely to continue their engineering majors compared to those who weren't involved, indicating the positive impact of these organizations.
- - Students highlighted that PEOs provided valuable networking opportunities and resources that helped combat feelings of isolation based on gender and race/ethnicity, emphasizing the importance of early participation in these organizations.
Aims: To determine the prevalence of isolated tumour cells (ITC) in lymph nodes of patients with pathological node-negative (pN0) tumours and to assess their impact on disease-free and overall survival.
Methods: Paraffin embedded lymph nodes from oesophagogastrectomy specimens were examined immunohistochemically using monoclonal anti-cytokeratin antibody (MNF118). Clinical and pathological features were summarised and overall and relapse-free survival were estimated.
