Prognostic comparison of proliferation markers and World Health Organization 1973/2004 grades in urothelial carcinomas of the urinary bladder

European treatment guidelines of non-muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder are strongly dependent on grade, but grading reproducibility is wanting. Protocolized proliferation features such as Mitotic Activity Index (MAI), Ki-67, and phosphohistone H3 are prognostic and reproducible. The objective of this population-based study was to compare proliferation biomarkers with each other and with World Health Organization (WHO)...
