Article Synopsis
- Papillary breast lesions (PBLs) are diverse and can be benign, atypical, or malignant, making their diagnosis difficult and often inaccurate among pathologists.
- A study involving 20 breast pathologists evaluated the agreement in diagnosing 60 cases of PBLs using WHO classification, finding that traditional hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining had low reliability but that immunohistochemical (IHC) staining improved diagnostic accuracy.
- Despite these improvements, certain subgroups of PBLs still showed low diagnostic agreement, indicating the need for further research and consensus to enhance reproducibility in classifying these lesions.
Gastric inverted polyps (GIPs) are rare gastric polyps characterized by a submucosal inverted growth of mucosal components. Because of their rarity, they are not well characterized and are diagnostically challenging. We examined 12 cases of GIPs arising in 8 male and 4 female patients (mean age: 56 y).

Background: Recent findings in molecular pathology suggest that genetic translocation and/oroverexpression of oncoproteins is important in salivary gland tumorigenesis and diagnosis. Weinvestigated PLAG1, SOX10, and Myb protein expression in various salivary gland neoplasm tissues.
Methods: A total of 113 cases of surgically resected salivary gland neoplasms at the NationalCancer Center from January 2007 to March 2017 were identified.
The expression of FAS-associated factor 1 and heat shock protein 70 in ovarian cancer.

July 2014
Objective: In this study, we evaluated the expression of FAS-associated factor 1 (FAF1) and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) in normal ovary and ovarian cancer, and also analyzed the correlation between FAF1 and HSP70 in ovarian cancer.
Methods: The patient group consisted of 29 unrelated Korean women diagnosed as ovarian cancers and control samples were obtained from 7 patients who underwent oophorectomy for benign disease of uterus, and normal ovary was confirmed histologically from biopsy. We examined FAF1 and HSP70 expression by western blot analysis and immunohistochemical staining in normal ovary and ovarian cancer.
Background: The effects of maneuvers to increase intrathoracic pressure and of Trendelenburg position on the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the subclavian vein (SCV) and the relationship between the SCV and adjacent structures have not been investigated.
Methods: In ultrasonography-guided SCV catheterization (N = 30), the CSA of the SCV and the distance between the SCV and pleura (DSCV-pleura) were determined during 10-second airway opening, and 10-second positive inspiratory hold with 20 cm H2O in the supine position (S-0, and S-20) and the 10° Trendelenburg position (T-0, and T-20). In addition to a statistical significance of P < 0.
