The improvement in interobserver agreement in classifying adenoma architecture suggests that national guidelines can be useful in disseminating knowledge, however, the variability in the diagnosis of HGD, even following guideline review suggests the need for ongoing knowledge-transfer exercises.

The condensation of metaphase chromosomes occurs in three main steps. The first and longest takes place during the S phase, as nucleofilaments are assembled into aggregates, while the heterochromatin gives rise to bulges. The brief second step occurs toward the beginning of prophase, when the numerous aggregates and bulges are congregated into a limited number of chromomeres, which are lined up in rows. The third step takes place during the brief prometaphase, when the chromomeres of a row coalesce into a mitotic chromosome.

The distribution of the gold particles at 10 min reveals that DNA is synthesized in discrete nucleofilaments that are "free" or "aggregate-attached" or "heterochromatin-attached." In contrast, by one and especially two hours, the gold particles are present over aggregates and bulges, indicating that, after discrete nucleofilaments acquire nascent DNA, they are displaced to become part of these structures. More precisely, the aggregates arise from the repeated addition of replicated portions of "free" nucleofilaments, while the bulges arise from the repeated addition of replicated portions, of "heterochromatin-attached" nucleofilaments. Aggregates and bulges are the two initial building stones from which mitotic chromosomes are eventually formed.
