Fig. 1: Relationship between rs117079142 and rs9924886 genotype and overall survival.

Kaplan–Meier Plots for a rs117079142 and b rs9924886. P-values are for multivariate recessive Cox-regression models and patients are grouped by number of copies of the minor allele. The relationship between genotype and overall survival was adjusted for eleven prognostic covariates: WHO performance status, resection status of the primary tumour, white blood cell count, platelet count, alkaline phosphatase levels, number of metastatic sites, liver metastases, site of primary tumour, surface area of primary tumour, time from diagnosis to metastases and metachronous versus synchronous metastases.
