Kaplan–Meier curve. No deaths were observed among the 13 patients with an IMP3-positive cell rate of less than 10% in the resected specimens. However, five of the 12 patients with an IMP3-positive cell rate of 10% or greater in the resected specimens died. Thus, a significant association between poor prognosis and an IMP3-positive cell rate of 10% or greater was confirmed (P = 0.01, log-rank test).
