 NT–NT, anthracycline-based PST that does not include a taxane or trastuzumab; D, docetaxel-based PST.

 For diffuse/around/inside/foci, scores range from 0 to 4.

a Staining with CD56 was less intense and difficult to quantify.

 Significant if P<0.05. Bold values signify their importance in the results and the discussion.
