Good: the staining pattern was consistent with the expectation based on previous reports; decreased: for p27, a lower percentage of staining was seen, with persistent cytoplasmic staining; aberrant: for C-erb-B2, an altered pattern of spatial expression was noted—although the staining was crisp, the location of the staining was aberrant. | |||||
