In the same column, different number (eg, a and b, b and c, a and c) showed there was significant difference between the adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and small cell carcinoma group (P < .05). In the same column, the same number (eg, a and a, b and b, c and c) showed there was no significant difference between the adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and small cell carcinoma group (P > .05).
