Partial data were not available, and statistics were based on available data. P values were derived from the Pearson’s Chi-square test (two tailed). PAI-1: Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1; PDAC: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma; G1: Well differentiated; G2: Moderately differentiated; G3: Poorly differentiated; G4: Undifferentiated; T: Tumor; N: Lymph node.
