Uncommon but valuable for diagnosis: Green deposits on peritoneal fluid cytospins [PDF]
AbstractWhen ascites fluids are observed under the microscope, unshaped greenish deposits should not be considered as artifacts but should rather prompt to bile leakage assessment.

Validation of on-slide immunocytochemistry controls prepared from long-term preserved prefixed cell suspensions. [PDF]
Abstract Background On‐slide controls are essential for quality assurance in immunocytochemistry, yet their use in non–cell block cytology preparations remains a significant challenge. This study presents and evaluates a novel method for preparing on‐slide controls from long‐term prefixed cell suspensions, applicable to all types of cytology ...

Adequacy criteria for voided urine cytology using cytospin preparations [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundPrevious studies have suggested that urine cytology adequacy may be related to both specimen volume and cellularity.MethodsThe authors reviewed cytospin preparations from 314 urine specimens (162 voided and 152 instrumented specimens) found to have high‐grade urothelial carcinoma on biopsy.ResultsThe sensitivity of instrumented urine ...

Thinprep plus Papanicolaou stain method is more sensitive than cytospin-coupled Wright Giems stain method in cerebrospinal fluid cytology for diagnosis of leptomeningeal metastasis from solid tumors. [PDF]
The present study was designed to determine whether the Thinprep plus Papanicolaou stain (Thinprep) method is more sensitive than the Cytospin-coupled Wright-Giemsa (WG) stain (Cytospin) method in diagnosis of leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) from ...

Cytospin performance when using Paris system for reporting urinary cytology
Objectives: The Paris System (TPS) for Reporting Urine Cytology has significantly improved the approach to evaluating urine cytology. TPS criteria were defined mainly according to ThinPrep and SurePath preparations, as they are widely utilized. The objective of this study is to validate urine cytology interpretation according to the TPS classification

Transcriptional repression by ApiAP2 factors is central to chronic toxoplasmosis [PDF]
Tachyzoite to bradyzoite development in Toxoplasma is marked by major changes in gene expression resulting in a parasite that expresses a new repertoire of surface antigens hidden inside a modified parasitophorous vacuole called the tissue cyst.
