Adjusted odds ratios (ORs), 95% confidence intervals(95% CIs) and p-value of E-cadherin expression and tumour stage as predictors for lymph node status.
Predictor | OR | 95% CI | P-value |
---|---|---|---|
Cadherin expression | |||
low vs. high | 3.550 | 1.450-8.694 | 0.006 |
Tumour stage | |||
pT1 vs. pT2 | 0.590 | 0.272-1.278 | 0.181 |
Logistic regression: Adjusted odds ratios (OR), 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) and p-value of cadherin expression and tumor stage as predictors for lymph node status. Because of quasi-complete separation in the data, differentiation grade was not included as a factor in the logistic regression model.
