Kaplan-Meier cures for overall survival of lung SCC and lung ADC patients with Mcl-1 expression, PI and AI. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to plot the overall survival of 154 cases of lung SCC (a-c) and 196 cases of lung ADC (d-f) patients with differential Mcl-1 expression, PI and AI, which statistical significance was assessed by log-rank test. (a) Lung SCC patients with high Mcl-1 expression showed worse overall survival rates compared to patients with low Mcl-1 expression (P = 0.031, two sided). (b) PI had no significantly correlation with overall survival rates of lung SCC patients (P > 0.05, two sided). (c) Lung SCC patients with high AI showed better overall survival rates compared to those with low AI (P = 0.022, two sided). (d) Lung ADC patients with high Mcl-1 expression had worse overall survival rates than that with low Mcl-1 expression (P = 0.021, two sided). (e) Lung ADC patients with high PI showed worse overall survival rates than those with low PI (P = 0.013, two sided). (f) The AI had no significantly correlation with overall survival rates of lung ADC patients (P > 0.05, two sided)
