Aberrant Expression of N-Methylpurine-DNA Glycosylase Influences Patient Survival in Malignant Gliomas

Figure 5

Postoperative survival curves for patterns of patients with glioma and MPG expression. (a) Kaplan-Meier postoperative survival curve for patterns of patients with glioma and MPG expression. (b) Cox-proportional hazards model after adjusting for age, gender, and grade. MPG might be an independent predictor of survival, without consideration of age, gender or grade. “a” refers to MPG-negative expression group; “b” refers to MPG-weak positive (+) expression group; “c” refers to MPG-moderate positive (++) expression group; “d” refers to MPG strong positive (+++) expression group.
