Proliferation of measures contributes to advancing psychological science.

Proliferation and variability of psychological measures are part of the natural workings of the scientific process. They contribute to theory development, transparency, replicability, and validity, and restricting proliferation might hinder progress in the psychological sciences.

Diagnostic value of intraoperative fine-needle aspiration cytologic diagnosis versus frozen section-based histopathologic diagnosis in thoracic malignancies: A single institution's experience.

Background: Primary lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the United States. Most lung cancers are diagnosed in an outpatient setting, but a subset requires intraoperative diagnosis. Two intraoperative diagnostic methods are available, frozen section (FS) and fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytology.

Post-kidney transplant cancers: Racial and ethnic differences in sun-exposed skin versus non-sun-exposed anogenital skin.

Background: Transplant recipients have a 2- to 4-fold increased risk of developing malignancies over the general population. Cancer is the second most common cause of death for recipients. The magnitude of the risk depends on the cancer type and increases in viral-related malignancies.

A Quantitative and Qualitative Assessment of Frozen Section Diagnosis Accuracy and Deferral Rate Across Organ Systems.

Objectives: Monitoring of frozen section diagnostic performance provides an important quality improvement measure.

Methods: Surgical specimens involving a frozen section diagnosis over a 3-year period were retrospectively reviewed. Glass slides were reviewed on cases with discordance.

NSCLC Subtyping in Conventional Cytology: Results of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Cytology Working Group Survey to Determine Specific Cytomorphologic Criteria for Adenocarcinoma and Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

Introduction: Accurate subtyping of NSCLC into lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is the cornerstone of NSCLC diagnosis. Cytology samples reveal higher rates of classification failures, that is, subtyping as non-small cell carcinoma-not otherwise specified (NSCC-NOS), as compared with histology specimens. This study aims to identify specific algorithms on the basis of known cytomorphologic features that aid accurate and successful subtyping of NSCLC on cytology.
