Table summarizes that there is significant correlation between positive ABC nuclear staining intensity and age of patient and tumor stage. There is no correlation between positive ABC nuclear staining intensity and gender. Statistical analysis for gender, age, and tumor stage was done using unpaired student's t-test, non-parametric Mann-Whitney test and Kruskal-Wallis trend test respectively; P < 0.05.

a

Indicates the P value for nuclear ABC staining in males vs females.

b

Indicates the P value for difference between mean ages of patients in positive and negative ABC staining groups.

c

Indicates the P value for nuclear ABC staining across different stages of OS tumor (IA, IB, IIA & IIB).
