*In Fisher’s exact test, the rate of high expression of MUC1/DF3 in the primary lesions of the recurrence group was significantly higher than that of the non-recurrence group (p = 0.016).
CI, confidence interval; HEG, the high expression group composed of the ++ cases (more than 30% of the neoplastic cells stained); LEG, the low expression group composed of the − and + cases (less than 30% of neoplastic cells stained); ND, not determined; OR, odds ratio.
