Associations between Wnt5a protein expression and/or surgical margin status (SMS; positive or negative) and BCR-free time after radical prostatectomy in PCa patients. (A) Kaplan–Meier curves plotted for high (↑) and low (↓) Wnt5a protein expression (for definition, see Results) and BCR-free time in low-grade cancers only (Gleason score ≤3+4). (B) Kaplan–Meier curves plotted between high- or low-Wnt5a protein expression and BCR-free time in the whole patient material (low-grade and high-grade cancers). (C) Kaplan–Meier curves showing the effect of Wnt5a protein expression and SMS on BCR in low-grade cancers. The curves were plotted after combining Wnt5a protein expression and SMS. (D) Kaplan–Meier curves demonstrating the association between SMS and BCR-free survival in all patients. P-values <0.05 indicate statistically significant differences in outcome between the most and least favorable group.
