High expression of TNFSF13 in tumor cells and fibroblasts is associated with poor prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Ancillary molecular testing on tissue is available for mycobacterial disease; however, judicious use of highly sensitive tests, such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing, should be guided by histologic parameters. We sought to investigate the utility of performing acid-fast stains (AFS) on skin ...
