| B | SEM | Chi-squared | p-value | OR (95% CI) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sex | 0.241 | 1.110 | 0.037 | 0.847 | 1.239(0.141-10.922) |
| Age | -0.063 | 0.040 | 2.484 | 0.115 | 0.939(0.868-1.015) |
| Tobacco use | 1.173 | 1.102 | 1.133 | 0.287 | 3.231(0.373-28.005) |
| Histology | 0.292 | 0.531 | 0.303 | 0.582 | 1.339(0.473-3.793) |
| High level IL-10 expression in TAM | 2.952 | 0.742 | 15.844 | 0.0001 | 19.137(4.474-81.859) |
The dependent variable is early- or late-stage group The independent variables included sex (0 = female; 1 = male), age (continuous variable, in yrs), Tobacco use (0 = Current,1 = Former,2 = Never), histology (1 = adenocarcinoma; 2 = squamous cell carcinoma;3 = others) and IL-10 expression (0 = low (<30.5); 1 = high (≥30.5). OR: odds ratio; CI: confidence interval.
