Correlation between histopathologic features and estrogen receptor status in primary breast cancer.

Relationships between certain histopathologic features of tumor specimens and estrogen receptor (ER) status were investigated. Lobular and ductal carcinomas were found to be richer in ER than other histologic types. Well differentiated carcinomas were more often hormone receptor positive than poorly differentiated tumors. Lymphocytic and plasmatocytic infiltration in and around the tumor as well as elastosis also appeared to be related positively to ER status.

Sex hormones in women on hemodialysis.

The pituitary-ovarian axis was studied in 12 women with a creatinine clearance of less than 5 ml/min per 17 m2, established on regular hemodialysis for at least 12 months. Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) serum levels were found to be slightly lower than normal, luteinizing hormone (LH) plasma concentration generally elevated, while progesterone and estradiol values were extremely low. The major reproductive consequence of chronic renal failure in women on hemodialysis is a severe impairment in ovulatory function.
