Median and interquartile range values of immunohistochemical scoring are listed. Statistical comparison of horizontal versus vertical groups was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test. Significant differences (p<0.05) are marked by asterisks. IQR, interquartile range (3 quartile–1 quartile); K-W Test, Kruskal-Wallis test; RC, reserve cell; COL, columnar glandular cell; SQU BAS, squamous basal cell; SQU PAR, squamous parabasal cell; CIN, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.
