However, there were high statistically significant differences in MTA1 expression when it came to the following variables: tumor size (P = 0.000), the incidence of nodal (P = 0.002) and distant metastasis (P = 0.000), TNM clinical stage (P = 0.000), and the incidence of tumor recurrence (P = 0.000, Table 3). Here, MTA1 is linked to neoplasm.
