Inter-Rater Agreement in PD-L1 (22C3) Expression Evaluation in Colon Cancer
Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) is a predictive biomarker in various cancers. In colorectal cancer, PD-L1 expression evaluation is not part of the routine examination and standardized evaluation methods are lacking. This study aimed to examine inter-rater agreement in PD-L1 exp...

Abstract Background Prognosis after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) keeps improving, yet some high-risk groups persist with chronic kidney disease being one. Contemporary data on the prognostic importance of pre-TAVI kidney function are sparse, leaving uncertainty...

Concurrent Germline RB1 & Mosaic TP53 in a Child With Multiple Childhood Cancers
ABSTRACT We report a patient with a pathogenic germline variant (PGV) in RB1 and somatic mosaicism for a pathogenic TP53 variant who developed three distinct types of childhood cancer: retinoblastoma, osteosarcoma, and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) before the age of 6 years. The...

A temporal differentiation program after birth delineates γδ T cell immunity
Type 1 and type 3 γδ T cells develop in the embryonic thymus, yet it is not known whether they continue to differentiate after birth in tissues. Here, we show that in the first week of life, intestinal γδ T cells up-regulated many T cell activation and type 3 genes, while the pos...
