- Correlations between immunohistochemical variables (according to the stratification shown in Table 2) and preoperative serum PSA, pathological T stage, clinical T stage and Gleason score were evaluated by Spearman’s test (r, correlation coefficient). *p < 0.05. (Note: significant correlations after Bonferroni correction should be those with a p < 0.005)
