Overall and disease‐free survivals in the groups of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients with decreased and normal to high ING3 expression. Kaplan–Meier survival curves for the total number of cases (n = 71) stratified by ING3 mRNA expression. The cases were divided into the low‐expression group and the normal to high‐expression group. Statistical significance was defined as P < 0.05. (a) The mean overall survival in the low‐expression group was 54 ± 8 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 37–70 months) and that in the normal to high‐expression group was 83 ± 10 months (95% CI 63–102 months) (P‐value for log rank test = 0.04). (b) The mean disease‐free survival in the low‐expression group was 43 ± 8 months (95% CI 28–58 months) and that in the normal to high‐expression group was 49 ± 9 months (95% CI 32–66 months) (P‐value for the log rank test = 0.64).
