Survival curve of patients after curative resection for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) according to the expression of KCC3. (a) Patients were classified into two groups: low grade expression of KCC3 (n = 35) and high grade expression of KCC3 (n = 35) in the main tumor (MT). (b) Patients were classified into two groups: the low grade expression of KCC3 (n = 36) and high grade expression of KCC3 (n = 34) in the cancer nest (CN). (c) Patients were classified into two groups based on comparisons of the KCC3 score: CC ≤ MT (n = 31) and CN > MT (n = 39) in the cancer nest (CN). (d) Patients were classified into two groups based on the expression of KCC3 in the invasive front of the tumor: negative (n = 22) and positive (n = 48). (e) Patients were classified into two groups: patients with CN > MT and invasive front positive (n = 31) and others (n = 39). ∗ P < 0.05: log-rank test.
