Abstract:among groups were estimated by χ 2 test, bone metastasis-free survival was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. The prognostic impact of clinicopathologic parameters and biomarker expression was evaluated by Cox propotional hazards model. Results: BSP expression was associated with BM(P=0.027), OPN expression could not reach statistical significance(P=0.495). Survival analysis demonstrated that strong expression of BSP(P=0.036), N stage(P=0.000) and overall stage(P=0.001) were associated with time interval to BM. … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
