Abstract:
:Strategies for cost containment in the clinical laboratory have been proposed and some are being tested. An approach is described and illustrated in this article for estimating the size of a cost reduction that might be observed in response to hypothetical changes in the utilization of the clinical laboratory. The variability of laboratory costs with changing volume is reported as a function of the assumptions made.

HUMAN PATHOLOGY文献大全abstract::HMGB2 is an important protein in carcinogenesis. However, little is known about the specific role of HMGB2 in gastric cancer. In the present study, HMGB2 expression was evaluated in 198 primary gastric cancer tissues and their adjacent nontumor controls. The correlation between HMGB2 expression and clinico-pathologica...
