Combat or surveillance? Evaluation of the heterogeneous inflammatory breast cancer microenvironment.

Evaluation of specific lymphocyte subsets is important in understanding the microenvironment in cancer and holds promise as a prognostic parameter in invasive breast cancer. To address this, we used digital image analysis to integrate cell abundance, distance metrics, neighbourhood relationships and sample heterogeneity into comprehensive assessment of immune infiltrates. Lymphocyte and macrophage subpopulations were detected by chromogenic duplex immunohistochemistry for CD3/perforin and CD68/CD163 in samples of invasive breast cancer.

Revision of the Padua Inventory of obsessive compulsive disorder symptoms: distinctions between worry, obsessions, and compulsions.

The Padua Inventory (PI), a self-report measure of obsessive and compulsive symptoms, is increasingly used in obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) research.

In an attempt to solve this measurement problem, this study used a content distinction between obsessions and worry to revise the PI.
