The expression of EPHB6, EFNB2, and
EFNB3 predicts disease outcome of NB. Survival
probabilities of groups of NB with low- or high-level expression of
TrkA (A), EPHB6
(B), EFNB2 (C), or
EFNB3 (D) were estimated by the method of
Kaplan-Meier. The median value of each variable was used as a cut-off
to define high- and low-expression subgroups. Five-year survival and
95% confidence interval (CI) also were calculated for each subgroup.
The log-rank test was used to compare survival probabilities of the two
groups.
