NOTE. CD3, CD8, and FOXP3 immunostaining was unevaluable in 10, 5, and 28 cases from the intermediate/high-risk TMA set because of poor staining, respectively. Tumor stage and Gleason score information was not available for a few cases.

a

Including African American, Hispanic, other, and unknown.

b

From Kruskal-Wallis test.

c

Absence of p53 nuclear accumulation.

d

Presence of p53 nuclear accumulation.
