| Cancer grade | II | III | χ2 test/Fisher’s test | p value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Low | RelA | 14 (50%) | 14 (50%) | 5.561 | 0.030 |
| High | 7 (21.2%) | 26 (78.8%) | |||
| Low | p50 | 11 (39.3%) | 17 (60.7%) | 6.028 | 0.019 |
| High | 4 (12.1%) | 29 (87.9%) |
Notes.
Cytoplasmic positivity, I, low (≤20%); II, moderate (21–60%); III, extensive (≥61%) was based on the staining intensity of the cell cytoplasm with immunoperoxidase positivity.
There were no cases in the “low cytoplasmic positivity (I)” category.
