Breast cancer is an uncontrolled growth of abnormal breast cells in the breast tissue. These abnormal cells divide more rapidly than healthy cells and begin to accumulate and form a lump. The cancer cells from the breast can spread to other parts of the body through the blood stream or the ...
Electronic pathology reports, an important component of electronic health records [1], often document valuable data for research and quality control [2]. For breast cancer, the data documented in pathology reports is especially important since the expression statuses of hormone receptors, such as the...

Although the efficacy of cancer radiotherapy (RT) can be enhanced by targeted immunotherapy, the immunosuppressive factors induced by radiation on tumor cells remain to be identified. Here, we report that CD47-mediated anti-phagocytosis is concurrently u

Pathologists face major challenges in breast cancer diagnostics in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The major problems identified as impairing the quality of pathology reports are shortcomings of equipment, organization and insufficiently qualified personnel. In addition, in the context of breast cancer, immunoh...
The main prognostic variables in early breast cancer are tumor size, histological grade, estrogen receptor/progesterone receptor (ER/PgR) status, number of positive nodes and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status. The present study evalu
Breast cancer is the most prevalent kind of cancer among women and there is a need for a reliable algorithm to predict its prognosis. Previous studies focused on using gene expression data to build predictive models. However, recent advancements have made multi-omics cancer data sets (gene expres...
ESMO guidelines point out that gene expression panels, such as Breast Cancer Index®, EPclin, MammaPrint®, Oncotype DX® and Prosigna® (PAM50), can be used to obtain additional prognostic and/or predictive information to complement the pathology assessment and predict the benefit of ...
