At the end of this post is the table 4 from the addendum to Lombardi et al. 2009 (submitted in February 2010).
In this table we find:
- Only 93 of the 101 patients are reported (WTF?)
- 73/93 (78%) are positive by cDNA nested PCR
- 17/93 (18%) are positive by DNA nested PCR
- 34/45 (76%) are positive by LNCaP co-culture with PMCs
- 35/46 (76%) are positive by Antibody in plasma
- 48/51 (94%) (!) are positive by LNCaP culture with plasma
When looking only at the 20 PCR negative patient samples, we find that:
- 12/20 (60%) PCR negative patient samples were not tested by other methods, only one PCR negative patient sample (the all negative 1139) was tested by all methods - this is at odds with the claims by Dr. Mikovits in her talks since October 2009 that all PCR negative samples were tested and that 31/33 PCR negative samples were positive by other methods
- 1/2 (50%) are positive by LNCaP co-culture with PMCs
- 3/4 (75%) are positive by Antibody in plasma
- 6/7 (86%) are positive by LNCaP culture with plasma
- Only one patient tested by all methods was negative by all methods (1139)
Here is the table, the rows are:
- Patient ID
- cDNA nested PCR
- DNA nested PCR
- LNCaP co-culture with PMCs
- Antibody in plasma
- LNCaP culture with plasma

Please notice the "odd" numbers (like 1206 or 1238), and the two "missing" patient numbers (1122 and 1123).
Focusing only on the PCR negative, first we have 8 patients tested by other methods (7 positive by other methods, 1 negative by all methods):

(Sorry if the formatting of the table is garbled up, I can't post it any better; You can look up the table in the PDF)
Update: I uploaded the spreadsheet here.

Comments are most welcome! But please:
- No SPAM whatsoever, no supplements, no pharmaceuticals, no herbs or any other advertisements
- Absolutely no quack-doctors pushing their quack-BS websites (and if you are a quack, I will call you out)
- Be critical if you want to, but try to be coherent
Comments are moderated, because I am tired of Gerwyn-V99-The-Idiot and his moronic sockpuppets, and tired of the story of the two dogs, but I will try to publish everything else.
If you are not Gerwyn (and want to tell me something other than the story of the two dogs), then relax and write something! :-)
