Although the long-term survival rates suggest a clear trend, with a 3-year survival rate of 12.5 % in the CK7+ group and 75 % in the CK7− group ( p -value = 0.067), the difference is not statistically significant.

The prevalence of coronary heart disease was higher in the ADC group (24%) than in the LCNEC group (12.5%), although the result did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.38).
These disparities are evident even before propensity score matching and become significantly more pronounced post-matching, as demonstrated by highly significant p -values and a greater divergence in the Kaplan–Meier survival curves ( Table 3 , Figure 3 ).
