Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: This study investigated the relationships between the numeric aberrations of chromosome 17 and p53 expression, the proliferating cell nuclear antigen labeling index (PCNA-LI) and histopathology, to determine their prognostic significance in bladder cancer. METHODS: Using in situ hybri...
