F: female, M: male, Diff: differentiation grade of the tumour, 1: low differentiation grade, 2: moderate differentiation grade, 3: high differentiation grade, SCC: squamous cell carcinoma, and Ac: adenocarcinoma, B: Barrett’s oesophagus. SSTRs were graded no presence = 0, small amounts = 1, moderate amounts = 2, and large amounts = 3.
