Do perinatal antibiotic-induced shifts in gut microbiota have differential effects on inflammatory lung diseases?
Perinatal antibiotics exert highly selective effects on resident gut flora, which, in turn, lead to very specific alterations in susceptibility to TH2- or TH1/TH17-driven lung inflammatory disease.
We confirmed the value of vascular invasion as a prognostic marker in stage 1 NSGCT. Tumour vessel density was of no prognostic value. Two factors may contribute to this. First, there was wide variation of vessel density between different blocks of a tumour. Second, the most vascular area in a tumour was frequently in low-grade tumour.
