- - The study aimed to evaluate factors predicting the progression to high-grade anal intraepithelial neoplasia (HGAIN) in a group of 556 HIV-infected men who have sex with men (MSM) using longitudinal screening methods, including anal cytology and high-resolution anoscopy.
- - Over 649 person-years of follow-up, 68 cases of HGAIN were identified, showing a progression rate of 10.5 cases per 100 person-years, with cumulative incidences of 7.2% at 12 months and 16.2% at 24 months; multiple risk factors and protective factors were identified.
- - The findings suggest that the risk of progression to HGAIN varies based on specific
Background: Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) positivity represents a novel molecular target in a subset of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers (NSCLC). We explore Fluorescence in situ Hybridization (FISH) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC) as diagnostic methods for ALK positive patients and to describe its prevalence and outcomes in a population of NSCLC patients.
Methods: NSCLC patients previously screened for Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) at our institution were selected.
