Highlights
SalvGlandDx includes 27 genes known to be involved in salivary gland neoplasms
Can be applied to FFPE histological and cytological (cell block) specimen
Solely RNA extraction is needed
Gene fusions, hotspot mutations and gene expression levels can be detected
Guides diagnosis in uncertain cases and can detect therapeutically relevant fusions
LNR is a prognostic tool in patients with a lymph node status pN0-pN2b. LNR remained significant even in patients with extracapsular spread, contrary to TNM status. With LNR, stratification for high-risk patients (higher than 6 % LNR) can be evaluated easily. We would suggest using LNR in the clinical routine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
