Example Sentences:

(4) In the BIMA group two pleural cavities, the SIMA group one pleural sac and the VS group none of the pleural cavities was entered.
(5) At the subcellular level, both anti-SIMA MAb showed reactivity typical of normal mucin, i.e., goblet cell and extracellular mucin.
(6) SIMA epitopes are thus markers of very early neoplastic change, whose expression correlates with malignant potential and may contribute to the accumulation of changes necessary for tumourigenesis.
(7) Inappropriate SIMA production was detected by either anti-SIMA MAb 4D3 or 4A1, even in 85% of early stage cancers.
(8) Inappropriate expression of SIMA epitopes was first detected in mucosa adjacent to minute microadenomas larger than three glands, and with increase in size, in increasing amounts within adenomas themselves, but not with microadenomas smaller than three glands or regions of flat mucosa free of adenomas.
(9) Comparison of the pre-operative data showed that patients who had a SIMA were similar to those who had a SVG except that they were older, had a more stable presentation and they had a higher incidence of myocardial infarction.

(12) The previously reported hierarchy of four SIMA epitopes (5C5, 3D4, 4D3, 6C5) was also consistently observed in the adenoma-carcinoma sequence, and applied to (i) the order of epitope detection, (ii) the number of positive adenomas and (iii) extent of staining; (iv) the height in the crypt and (v) distance from the adenoma to which epitopes were expressed in perineoplastic mucosa.
(13) The colorectal adenoma-carcinoma sequence was examined in relation to the ectopic expression of the oncofoetal Small Intestinal Mucin Antigen (SIMA), to the development of morphologic changes in the adenoma and perineoplastic mucosa and to indices of malignant potential.
(14) The percentage of positive adenomas and reactivity scores for each anti-SIMA MAb correlated with increasing adenoma size, degree of dysplasia and growth pattern.
