PTGS2 and laryngeal carcinoma: In addition, significant correlations between COX-2 overexpression and overall survival of laryngeal cancer were found both in Asians and in Caucasians (total, HR = 1.73, 95% CI: 1.23–2.24, P < 0.05; survival in Asians, HR = 2.59, 95% CI: 1.27–3.92, P < 0.05; survival in Caucasians, HR = 1.59, 95% CI: 1.03–2.14, P < 0.05).
