Task: Intent Identification
Input (English): To identify molecular features associated with clinico-pathological parameters in renal cell cancer.', 'Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry imaging was employed for a kidney cancer tissue microarray containing tissue samples from 789 patients for which clinical follow-up data were available.', 'A comparison of mass spectrometric signals with clinico-pathological features revealed significant differences between papillary and clear cell renal cell cancer. Within the subgroup of clear cell RCC, statistical associations with tumor stage (seven signals, p<0.01 each), Fuhrman grade (seven signals, p<0.0001 each), and presence of lymph node metastases (10 signals, p<0.01 each) were found. In addition, the presence of one signal was significantly linked to shortened patient survival (p=0.0198).
