question:
Accurate evaluation of the biological behavior of Gastrointestinal stromal tumor and careful selection of patients with a high risk for tumor recurrence are necessary. In the present study, we analyzed prognostic factors in patients with GIST.', 'A total of 214 patients who had undergone curative resection of a localized primary gastric GIST without adjuvant therapy were enrolled in this retrospective study. Prognostic factors were analyzed. The growth pattern was classified as intramural, endoluminal, exoluminal, or mixed- type.', 'On univariate and multivariate analyses, recurrence was predicted by exoluminal or mixed-type (hazard ratio [HR]=3.7, p=0.043), tumor size of >3.5 cm (HR=7.1, p=0.01), and mitotic rate of >5/50 high-power fields (HR=7.9, p<0.001).
answer:
Is macroscopic type a prognostic factor for recurrence-free survival after resection of gastric GIST?


question:
Growing evidence documents elevated behavioral risk among sexual-minorities, including gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals; however, tests of biological or psychological indicators of stress as explanations for these disparities have not been conducted.', 'Data were from the 2005-2010 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, and included 9662 participants; 9254 heterosexuals, 153 gays/lesbians and 255 bisexuals. Associations between sexual orientation and tobacco, alcohol, substance, and marijuana use, and body mass index, were tested using the chi-square test. Stress, operationalized as depressive symptoms and elevated C-reactive protein, was tested as mediating the association between sexual orientation and behavioral health risks. Multiple logistic regression was used to test for mediation effects, and the Sobel test was used to evaluate the statistical significance of the meditating effect.', 'Gays/lesbians and bisexuals were more likely to report current smoking (p\u2009<\u2009.001), a lifetime history of substance use (p\u2009<\u2009.001), a lifetime history of marijuana use (p\u2009<\u2009.001), and a lifetime period of risky drinking (p\u2009=\u2009.0061). The largest disparities were observed among bisexuals. Depressive symptoms partially mediated the association between sexual orientation and current smoking (aOR 2.04, 95% CI 1.59, 2.63), lifetime history of substance use (aOR 3.30 95% CI 2.20, 4.96), and lifetime history of marijuana use (aOR 2.90, 95% CI 2.02, 4.16), among bisexuals only. C-reactive protein did not mediate the sexual orientation/behavior relationship.
answer:
Does stress mediate the relationship between sexual orientation and behavioral risk disparities?


question:
Dysplastic nodules (DN) may be divided into high-grade and low-grade, and the former has been known as a precancerous or borderline lesion. Recently many morphological characteristics concerning these types of DN have been reported. In the present study we attempted to evaluate the scirrhous change in DN as an indicative feature of high-grade DN, based on the morphological and cell-kinetic analyses using immunohistochemical stains for Ki-67.', "We reviewed 35 livers with DN and selected 15 DN with scirrhous change. We stained DN-bearing sections of each case with hematoxylin and eosin, trichrome, reticulin and Perls' stain. We tried to subclassify and characterize the scirrhous change according to the fibrosis pattern. We also stained with Ki-67 immunohistochemically to assess the proliferative activity of DN with scirrhous change.", 'We found two types of scirrhous change, that is, pericellular and stellate. The pericellular type was related to the Mallory body-forming cholestatic degeneration, whereas the stellate type was associated with extensive portal fibrosis probably induced by ischemic damage. Among DN with scirrhous change, high-grade DN comprised five nodules (33%) and there were 10 (67%) low-grade nodules. There was no significant relationship between the presence or the types of scirrhous change and the grade of DN. The significant differences of Ki-67 labeling indices between types of scirrhous change were not shown in this study. We also could not find the differences between Ki-67 labeling indices of scirrhous DN (high and low grades) and those of surrounding regenerative nodules.
answer:

Do scirrhous changes in dysplastic nodules indicate high-grade status?
