Pathological grading I vs. II Z = −1.805, P = 0.071, I vs. III Z = −4.466, P < 0.001, II vs. III Z = −3.508, P < 0.001. Acinar adenocarcinoma vs. mucinous Z = −2.144, P = 0.032. There were no differences of expression of CDK5 in other subgroups

aKruskal-Wallis H test was performed when the data were divided into more than two groups
