Lymphocytic infiltration and survival in rectal cancer.

Open access

Abstract

Lymphocytic infiltration was assessed semiquantitatively in 447 specimens of rectal cancer. Corrected five year survivals for pronounced, moderate, and little lymphocytic infiltration were 92%, 65% and 36%, respectively. Grading was shown to be reproducible in an intraobserver study (observed agreement 81%, expected agreement 34%, kappa coefficient 0.72). In the multivariate survival analysis of grade and stage related variables lymphocytic infiltration was the only grade related variable to be accepted within the prognostic model. This model also included the number of lymph node metastases and the extent of tumour spread. It is suggested that the conservation of the normal interactive traffic between epithelium and mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) signals a low grade growth. This is supported by the association between lymphocytic infiltration and the expression of secretory component by malignant epithelium.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
