  1. NOTE: We tested KRAS codon 12 and 13 mutations among BRAF wild type cases.
  2. The multivariate Cox regression model initially included age, sex, tumor location, tumor differentiation, tumor diameter, number of lymph nodes examined, TNM stage, KRAS and PIK3CA status. A backward stepwise elimination with a threshold of P = 0.1 was used to select variables in the final model. TNM stage and KRAS status were finally entered the multivariate analysis. P-values ≤ 0.05 are in bold.
