Abbreviations: ER=oestrogen receptor; WT=wild type.

Results are also detailed by deprivation groups 1–9 and 10.

a

There were no p53 mutation patients, who had Grade 1 tumours.

b

All patients in deprivation group 10 without a p53 mutation survived and remained disease free.

c

All patients in deprivation group 10 without a p53 mutation were free of triple-negative tumours. All analyses have one degree of freedom, and statistically significant results are highlighted in bold type.
