Abstracts

Clinical pathology selected abstracts

November 2016—Neonatal ICU quality initiative: identifying preanalytical variables that contribute to specimen hemolysis: Hemolysis is a major cause of sample rejection and the need to recollect a specimen from a patient. In the neonatal intensive care unit, this may be of particular concern because of limited venous access and the risk of causing iatrogenic anemia.

Molecular Pathology Selected Abstracts, 11/16

November 2016—Misclassification of genetic variants associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy has a variable clinical presentation and may lead to sudden cardiac death. In many cases, it is associated with pathogenic genetic variants, enabling screening of relatives and, possibly, the ability to individualize treatment strategies through lifestyle modification or invasive procedures.

Anatomic Pathology Abstracts, 10/16

October 2016—Features of columnar-lined esophagus in gastroesophageal junction biopsies; Significance of Paneth cells in histologically unremarkable rectal mucosa; MicroRNA expression profile related to lymph node status in endometrial cancer; Plasma cells in melanoma: prognostic significance and possible role of IgA; Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 testing in invasive breast cancer

Clinical pathology selected abstracts

October 2016—Risk factors for transfusion in cesarean section deliveries at a tertiary hospital: Obstetrical hemorrhage is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in young women and may be difficult to predict. In some regions of the world, postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) may account for up to 25 percent of maternal deaths. Many studies have focused on the predictors of PPH before delivery.

Molecular Pathology Abstracts, 10/16

October 2016—Mutational landscape of glioblastoma under therapy: The mutational landscape of glioblastoma has emerged in recent years and includes frequently observed genomic alterations that are drivers of the tumor, including TP53, PTEN, EGFR, PIK3CA, ATRX, IDH1, PIK3R1, NF1, and PDGFRA.

Clinical Pathology Selected Abstracts, 9/16

September 2016—Medical error: a leading cause of death in the United States. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention compiles an annual list of the most common causes of death in the United States, using death certificates. This process relies on assigning an International Classification of Disease (ICD) code to the cause of death.

Anatomic Pathology Abstracts, 9/16

September 2016—Digital image analysis versus manual biomarker assessment in breast cancer; Clinical and cost impact of EGFR and ALK testing in early stage NSCLC; Switch/sucrose nonfermenting complex protein expression in an aggressive endometrial cancer; Immune microenvironment of breast ductal carcinoma in situ; Adverse histological features in malignant colorectal polyps; Use of ancillary molecular analysis for diagnosis of soft tissue tumors

Molecular Pathology Selected Abstracts, 9/16

September 2016—Mutations causing acquired resistance to PD-1 blockade in melanoma: Immunotherapy in metastatic cancer has achieved durable responses in a wide variety of cancer types. Antibodies that block programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) are particularly effective in metastatic melanoma, but a recent study showed that approximately 25 percent of patients that achieved a durable response ultimately had disease progression at a median follow-up of 21 months.

Clinical pathology selected abstracts

August 2016—Cold antibodies may be detected with routine pretransfusion testing and may obscure the identification of clinically significant red blood cell antibodies. They may be detected in healthy people or may be transient in appearance after a mycoplasma or mononucleosis infection. In most cases, cold antibodies are benign, and pretransfusion laboratory testing is designed to avoid detecting these antibodies by eliminating testing at room temperature.

Anatomic Pathology Abstracts, 8/16

August 2016—Use of HSP70 and glutamine synthetase to diagnose hepatocellular carcinoma; Recurrence of benign and low-grade fibroepithelial neoplasms of the breast; Lobular neoplasia detected in MRI-guided core biopsy: a high risk for upgrade; Use of microsatellite instability, MLH1 methylation analysis, IHC to identify Lynch syndrome; Differential diagnosis of bladder versus colorectal adenocarcinoma; Enhanced expression of PD L1 in CIN and cervical cancers
