Practical laboratory considerations amidst the COVID-19 outbreak: early experience from Singapore.
Published in Journal of clinical pathology
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a zoonotic viral infection originating from Wuhan, China in December 2019. The World Health Organization has classified this pandemic as a global health emergency due to its virulent nature of transmission, which may lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome. Singapore's health ministry has responded wit...
Predictive molecular pathology in the time of COVID-19.
...Published in Journal of clinical pathology
In the time of COVID-19, predictive molecular pathology laboratories must still timely select oncological patients for targeted treatments. However, the need to respect social distancing measures may delay results generated by laboratory-developed tests based on sequential steps a long hands-on time. Laboratory workflows should now be simplified. T...
Perineural invasion predicts for locoregional failure in patients with oesophageal adenocarcinoma treated with neoadjuva...
...Published in Journal of clinical pathology
The prognostic significance of perineural invasion (PNI) in oesophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is unclear. We examined the association of PNI with clinical outcomes in patients treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) and surgery. We performed a single institutional retrospective study. We evaluated the association of PNI with locoregional r...
Abnormal expression of p-ATM/CHK2 in nasal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma, nasal type, is correlated with poor prognosis....
Published in Journal of clinical pathology
The aim of this study is to investigate the expression profiles of cell cycle related proteins in nasal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTCL). The expression profiles of cell cycle related proteins were assessed with a cell cycle antibody array and validated by immunohistochemistry. Correlations between the expression levels of protein...
Cytology in the time of coronavirus disease (COVID-19): an Italian perspective.
Published in Journal of clinical pathology
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is changing the way we practice pathology, including fine needle aspiration (FNA) diagnostics. Although recommendations have been issued to prioritise patients at high oncological risk, postponing those with unsuspicious presentations, real world data have not been reported yet. The percentages of the cytolog...
