Table 2. Association between ΔNp63 and ΔN/TAp63 expression ratio with cervical lesions.

ΔNp63 mRNA expression levels and ΔN/TAp63 expression ratio
	ΔNp63-positive cases n (%)	P-value	Ratio-positive cases n (%)	P-value
Normal (n = 40)	2 (5.0)	Reference	2 (5.0)	Reference
LSIL (n = 30)^a	5 (16.7)	0.1298	9 (30.0)	< 0.05
HSIL (n = 38)^b	12 (31.6)	< 0.01	12 (31.6)	< 0.01
Cancer (n = 52)	23 (44.2)	< 0.001	27 (52.0)	< 0.001

^a LSIL, low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions;

^b HSIL, high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions.
