NOTE: Correlations were calculated using Wilcoxon/Mann-Whitney (ER) and Spearman rank (Grade) unless otherwise specified. Bold values indicate P < 0.05.

a

Primary tumor ER status unknown in 6 cases, ≥10% cutoff value for positivity.

b

Primary tumor grade unknown in 28 cases.

c

Reduced numbers (n = 105).

d

The Fisher exact test.

e

The Kruskal-Wallis test; n, number of patients.
