TP73 and metastatic malignant neoplasm in the lymph nodes: We observed clinical stage (I–IIA vs. IIB–IV, P<0.001, Table 3), lymph node metastasis (Absent vs. Present, P<0.001, Table 3), distant metastasis (Absent vs. Present, P=0.001, Table 3), histological type (adenocarcinoma vs. squamous cell carcinoma, P<0.001, Table 3), histological grade (well vs. moderately/poorly, P<0.001, Table 3) and TP73 expression (Low vs. High, P<0.001, Table 3) were prognostic factors for overall survival in cervical cancer patients in univariate Cox proportional hazards regression model.
