From: Expression of survivin detected by immunohistochemistry in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus is associated with prognosis of leiomyosarcoma and synovial sarcoma patients

Figure 2

Multivariate Cox's regression hazard analysis. Survivin expression in the cytoplasm and/or in nucleus is correlated with a poor prognosis for leiomyosarcoma and synovial sarcoma patients. Survivin expression in the cytoplasm (A) and in the nucleus (B) A: Upper curve: weak expression; 2nd curve: strong expression; 3rd curve: negative expression and lower curve: moderate expression of survivin in the cytoplasm. B: Upper curve: weak expression; 2nd curve: negative expression and lower curve: moderate expression of survivin in the nucleus. Combined expression of survivin in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus (C) C: Upper curve: Survivin expression both in cytoplasm and in nucleus weak (all IRS = 3-4); 2nd upper curve: all other cases and lower curve: Survivin expression in cytoplasm moderate or strong and survivin expression in nucleus moderate (all IRS ≥ 6).
